My daughter and I are learning to play guitar and she wanted an acoustic to play and practice with. We walked in and immediately greeted by Joey who asked all the right question and provided us many options. He worked with my daughter to get just the guitar she wanted and I could not be happier with the experience.

Thank you for a great first impression. We will be back.

Though I live in the north east, I recently purchased a gorgeous vintage Les paul from this shop online. I called ahead of time to ask some questions and the staff was helpful. I wanted to share my appreciation for the quality and accurate description of the guitar, as well as the care taken to pack and ship it in a quality box! great experience!

The guy I always see when I go there comes off like a bit of a grump, but that's okay because I'm a bit of a grump as well. In reality he's very friendly and so is the other staff I've encountered. I've always gotten very fair prices if I'm selling something and this store has tons of really awesome instruments. It's always worth it when I go there.

Wide assortment of instruments. Many choices for plugs and electric cables. Good choices of strings; electric, steelstring, classical. They could use some more hardware effects boxes. They could make more of an effort to suppliment the mayhem of the electrified acoustic guitar player. Decent prices. I would go back to look over the rest of their acoustic instruments. Hopefully find a bass and an acoustic amp. Nice homeground location.

Visited the store with a guitar question, the crew was very kind and knowledgeable and gave me some great help. Got some new strings and my guitar plays much better thanks to them! I'd recommend to anyone who needs help with existing instruments, or is looking to start a new instrument.

The gentleman working on 02/11 was very helpful and had great customer service. He helped me with a very odd request and went out of his way to help me. You don t find that anymore so I couldn t let it go unnoticed. Thanks!

Do NOT confuse this place for Guitar Center. These guys actually know what they are talking about.

As a sort-of chain, I think this location is still trying to find their niche in the Twin Cities music gear market, so their stock kind of reflects that. But their staff is extremely knowledgeable with what they do have, new and used. No sales BS and no searching the internet for product information. Just straight gear talk.

They also have been VERY good about honoring returns for the cables I bought from them with lifetime warranties.

We had an excellent experience at Minnetonka Music Go Round. The staff made us feel welcome and valued. We purchased Corwin's beloved Alto Sax for my high school son who plays jazz, pep band, marching band; he LOVES his new horn! Corwin, your Sax is in good hands and will be played hard!

Solid staff and well versed in equipment and guitars. I purchased a guitar and some miscellaneous gear a while back from Music Go Round in MTKA. Although I was happy with the guitar, I brought it back in with some questions after a few weeks of playing it had passed. They made a few small adjustments and straightened it out at no additional charge. They made sure I was a happy customer, that was important to me. I recommend checking them out!

I brought in an instrument to sell and got an honest, fair price from the owner. He took time to explain the instrument to me, did some research, and came up with a very competitive offer. I felt the owner treated me with integrity and fairness. This store is a real asset to the community, in my opinion. I plan to shop there again in the future.

I ordered a Marshall Valvestate head from them (for a pretty good price) online. I called and asked about it and they answered all my questions. The gentleman I spoke with was knowledgeable and pleasant to work with.

The staff here is super cool and offer you actual fair prices when you are selling. I went to the one in Burnsville to sell some of my stuff and the store owner offered me complete garbage prices. I passed and took my stuff to the Minnetonka location and got even more than I was expecting. You can tell that the staff here actually care about what they are doing. The Burnsville location however, feels like it's ran more like a pawn shop.

Sold me a BROKEN keyboard, they didn't even check to see if it was working beforehand they just sold it to me and I couldn't return it. The only good experience I have here is selling my trumpet, for a very good price.

I came in to ask for assist with restringing a guitar, and since the store was slow, Joey took the time to not only restring my guitar, but clean and recondition the neck. Highly recommend this store for all Music needs especially Guitars. Everyone I talked to was extremely helpful.

I'm a guitar player and I am like a kid in a candy store when I'm in this place. They have a great selection of guitars, amps, effects, and accessories and there's always new inventory every time I stop by. The staff is awesome and if you have questions, they're not annoyed... they're happy to help you out. If they don't know the answer, they'll call over the guy that does. Have a knowledgeable conversation for 20 mins about the pros and cons of American guitars versus imports, or grab a cable and plug in a guitar and check it out for a half hour. These guys are happy to oblige either way. Great service, great selection, and great prices.

Great Experience. I worked directly with the owner of the store. He arranged to get me exactly the instrument we needed. It was in excellent condition, and it had been professionally cleaned and reconditioned. The best part was the price was better than anything I had found on all of the classified listing sites. I highly recommend checking with Corwin before you make a purchase anywhere else.

Ordered a used amp online, it came much faster than I expected, was in great shape and included paperwork to confirm it was tested. Shipping was handled with care. Very satisfied! Will definitely keep this in mind for future music purchases, thank you!

Waited a week or two to post this because I was pretty livid at the time. Objectively, here we go:

After waiting saving and waiting patiently for the right guitar to pop up locally, it showed up on their website. Came in to check it out, went to the back of the store where all the guitars are located, everything checked out. Great. As I came back to the front, store employee as well as another patron were conversing without masks and the patron didn't even have a visible mask even through there's a pretty easy to read sign on the front door saying they are required. Totally unacceptable when we're almost a year into a pandemic - I ended up walking right out of the store and decided that I will take my business elsewhere.

Masking isn't political, it's for the safety of both people working and people shopping and I don't want to end up getting sick when things could have been prevented. As soon as your actions start interfering with people's right to live healthy lives, we have a real problem.

Support local non-chain guitar shops.

Music Go Round of Minnetonka carries a fine selection of used guitars and amps unlike larger chain guitar stores whose inventory is mainly focused on new gear. I found the staff to be pleasant and knowledgeable and the store is a great place to find the unexpected and unique.

This store is organized well with a great selection of instruments. They offer lessons and repairs as well. The employees let me look in peace while letting me know they were there if I had any questions. I was impressed as I have not had good luck at other locations. I will definitely return here.

Best guitar store in the Twin Cities in my opinion . Staff know what they are doing and will help you in anyway possible. They even have a few left handed guitars for the small percentage of us out there!

Staff was knowledgeable and helpful. Told me about the product I was looking for (LTD Guitar), showed me some other options that would be worth considering. I played a couple guitars and found one of their recommendations was actually much more what I was looking for! My son was poking around as well (5 year old), and the staff was very cool with him! He's a pretty gentle kid, but still nice that he was able to play around with some stuff! I would highly recommend this place, very knowledgeable staff, good selection, and good prices!

Mark, the jefe, goes above and beyond for customers. After a week my newly purchased used guitar had dropped and the intonation way off. Mark took it and put in some time to make it right and didn t charge me a nickel. He deserves your business!
