“Very well priced for both acoustic and electric guitars, I was looking for an acoustic/electric so kind of jealous I wasn't spending my time playing a few of the plain acoustics.”

“I highly recommend the youth group lessons. Jay does a great job and is fantastic with the kids!”
“Awesome local shop that has instruments for everyone as well as quality gear and affordable lessons.”
“Don't be turned off by the high prices on the website, that does not show their full stock and if you're a beginner you can get a good acoustic or electric for under $200.”
From the reviews
This place is incredible. I have 4 guitars, and 4 basses. I’ve had The Music Academy service all of them. Every instrument, every request, every special concern has been met, addressed, and brought to my exact need and desire.
Very friendly and helpful and staff, I needed help on finding a screw for my older guitar and this man sat there and dug through his drawer for close to 10 minutes looking for the smallest screw anyone has ever seen. He found it and didn't even charge.
Been in there a couple times. Had the truss rod and action adjusted on my electric LTD Bass Guitar. They did a nice job! Only reason I didn't give 5 stars was it took a bit longer than I would of liked, and the shop has a limited selection of gear and equipment.
My son was a Guitar student here for 8 years. Learned so much, Rich was patient, knowledgeable and willing to guide him with all genres of music. Their summer rock band series paired him with other students of similar age/skill level and he has remained a band with that group today playing at local venues.
Lessons at West Bend Music Academy
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at West Bend Music Academy. 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.
