Music Scene

Nice enough people, no issues there. Rented a student instrument based on local school recommendation. The instrument would've cost me around $1000 once the contract was fulfilled (and I would've owned the instrument).Knowing a little bit about musical instruments, I started wondering just what the real value of this item was. After a day of reading forums, Ebay searches, and then getting an informal appraisal from an unrelated local store, I found out this item was maybe worth 1/3rd of that. Additionally, another repair shop informed us that this unit had bugs(!) in it, and showed us the carcasses in the case. They felt it needed close to $300 worth of repairs to be playable due to the bugs that had been eating the felt and pads. They remarked that it appeared to have been in storage for a long time to get in this condition. My home is spotless, but this instrument is over 50 years old. Silly me for being so trusting and not doing my homework. I got this filthy thing out of my home, and went and bought a brand new item from a more reputable establishment, and ironically, for less money. Most importantly, the new instrument plays like a dream, my student loves it, and is over the moon with how much easier it is to play. Do your homework folks, and don't take the first recommendation you get from the local band teachers.

I left a message to setup drum lessons for my son. My call was returned promptly and he was scheduled to start within a few days. Everyone I have spoken with has been helpful. We enjoy our time there. Two weeks later I decided to start piano lessons. It has been an excellent experience all the way around. We have also purchased music equipment and books in fabulous condition.

gave me a faulty flute and broke my saxophone (I would give it a 0 but that's not possible so a 1)

Wonderful environment. Helped fix my student's clarinet. Very knowledgeable and helpful staff. Lane Turgeon, lead repairman, was great as was the rest of the staff. I went in their store also to look around and I like their diverse merchandise options. They also have private lessons available for students if that's the route you want to go. Definitely will continue giving my business.

I recently purchased a Korg C1 Air piano and the sales staff was so accommodating. They offered to deliver the Piano up a flight of stairs in my music studio. Our twins haven't stopped playing since. They are currently enrolled in music lessons with Kyle Shook and will soon expand to trombone lessons with Steve the owner. The lessons are up beat and allows the kids to progress extremely fast. I couldn't recommend the music scene enough. They are simply the best.
