From the reviews
Wanted to learn how to piano for the very first time. Walked into Uncle Jon's and he recommended me a wonderful, affordable beginner piano to learn on as well as several different beginners guides to get me started. My wife and I love the piano and are looking forward to mastering the piano one guide at a time.
Been going to this location in my hometown for years and uncle John’s Music is the BEST version of a full-service music store to occupy the space. Has whatever you need repairs lessons, music odds and ends for band and guitars and strings. The service is knowledgeable and courteous, and the prices are not inflated.
Jon and his dad did a fantastic job on a 1970's Teisco electric that was in desperate need of a restring, action readjustment, and clean up. Jon is awesome (plus his dog is super friendly ☺️). Plus, I got this lovely Alvarez acoustic guitar from him as well!
This place has been a staple for our family throughout the years, kids learning instruments then forgetting about them, then trying new things. UJM has been there, whether we were buying used or new, getting strings or lessons or just wanted to learn a song on the ukelele.
Lessons at Uncle Jon's Music
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Uncle Jon's Music. If you're signing up a beginner (or restarting yourself), a quick call ahead answers the three things that matter: which instruments they teach, whether the schedule has openings at the time you actually need, and what a first lesson costs. There's no wrong first guitar — a good teacher will happily work with whatever you walk in with, and a shop that teaches usually keeps affordable starter instruments and rentals on hand for exactly this reason.
