The guys at Gear are really top notch. Most (if not all) of the staff are professional musicians themselves and not only know their stuff but are passionate about music and they took the time to explain to a complete novice like me the pros and cons of any given instrument/amplifier/etc. We have bou...

Gear Music is one of those shops that helps you without crowding you. The staff is pretty chill and lets you look around and take your time.

Ive been going to gears for years they are awesome and even if they dont have something in stock you can give them your number for when it is in stock. They know their stuff and have a great array of guitars, basses, acoustics, synths, drums and accessories.

Not the most expensive guitar, they offered me 2 choices on how to repair it. Came back sounding as good a...

Friendly and knowledgable staff. I came in for a bridge reset on an acoustic guitar that took over 2.5 months to complete. The job itself was well done, but there was a lack of communication that was frustrating. At first, I was told it would take about a month to complete. I had to call in four tim...

Our 9 year old son expressed a desire to take 'drum lessons'. The staff at GEAR(Tim) was very good at accommodating our request and explaining all the 'ins and outs' to comfort us and more importantly, our son with our request. Although, its only been 5 weeks, he is loving it and having so much fun....

Great store, great staff. Everyone is helpful and they carry a wide selection for both pros and those just learning alike. You get excellent personal service at this store, which is more than I can say for any of the large stores selling instruments these days.
