Woodshed Music

Great and friendly service. Open to answering any questions no matter how "dumb" they may seem. Woodshed has a relaxing atmosphere and has some very cool equipment.

HORRIBLE customer service! It was the worst experience I've ever had at any music shop I've ever been too out of the 50+ stores I've been to. My fiancé pulled a guitar down she was really wanting to buy. It was only $550 for a pretty nice acoustic. She's a beginner so she asked my to try it out for her. I played a chord or two and noticed it was out of tune a little. I fixed the g string which was out just a little. I then played for a few seconds and then tried tuning it to drop d. Before I could even play a chord in drop d the owner said to me "hey, will you please keep it in standard tuning" I said "yea sure, why is that?" His reply was "I put a lot of time into setting it up" ... I then said "ok I get that, if I tune it back from drop d to standard when I put it back on the wall is that ok?" He said "NO" I asked politely "why?" He said "because I said so, I just told you!" ... This is completely NOT logical. Tuning a guitar to drop d won't mess anything up. It's one string being tuned down 1 step and that's it. This is the WORST customer service attitude. As you can understand his attitude towards me wanting to actually try the guitar and play it turned us off to buying anything from him ever. So I tuned it back and we left. HORRIBLE experience there. Will never go back!!

This is a great small business that seems to have very reasonable prices compared to the big box companies. They are knowledgeable on instrument repair and modification and charge affordable prices for their expertise.

Recommending for service & selection. Staff was very knowledgeable and helpful. I brought in a mandolin for a fresh set up. I left it only a few hours and was very happy. The work was done thoroughly and it played much better. Best I've heard it to date!

This is a great shop. Paul does top notch work and has been servicing my equipment for about a year now. I've never been disappointed and the prices are more reasonable and fair than anywhere else in Fort Collins. Located right downtown next to campus it's in a perfect spot. Shop may be small and it may seem like there's not a lot of selection, but like any smart business owner, he keeps the good stuff in the back. Would you want some idiot college student coming in fingering up a 2500 Gibson or Martin? Didn't think so.
