Reviews
Not big into leaving reviews but had a great experience at Stacy’s Music. Staff is what makes a store and John was fantastic. Offered deals without being pushy and knowledge to help. Value local places like these!
Took my guitar in for a set up and a buzzing string issue. Met John, who immediately knew what the issue was. Had me fixed up and out the door in no time, for a very, very fair price. Stacy’s is now my go-to for musical needs!
