So much to say! What a gem. Santa Fe is so lucky to have such a great resource. I went in to rent a PA system. The store is so clean, well organized and with such a great and expansive selection.
Renting the PA was a seamless experience. The staff was kind enough to walk me through the process not once, but twice. As someone with zero experience with PA’s and mixers I was able to hook everything up and get it going in no time.
This is the kind of store that when you leave you’re thinking “maybe I should take a class” or “why did I stop playing clarinet after high school? 🤔”
Thank you and your staff for a wonderful experience. Nice to...read full review
Great customer service!!! Awesome shop and great crew working. Every time i had a question i was able to get it answered quickly and friendly. Definitely purchasing again through this shop in the future. .
Dropped off a guitar today for a setup. Never been there due to it being a little over 2 hours from where I live. They have a new customer in me. Lots of guitars at all budgets!. Customer service is top notch. I found my new shop! Thanks for the great experience!!!
