On 3/30/2026 Emily Shedoredo Korbel had this to say:
I found a trumpet at the thrift store with a stuck valve and they got it fixed the same day for a very reasonable price. Nice friendly service, I would highly recommend!

On 11/4/2025 Kendra Anderson had this to say:
I love the little stone machine you use quarters to get. Things are a bit pricey in here but I still enjoy coming here every now and then to browse. Staff are very nice.

On 10/1/2023 Elizabeth Richardson had this to say:
We always have a great experience in this store! My son dropped his trumpet down a set of bleachers and the owner was able to get it back into working condition on a Saturday morning so my son wouldn’t miss any time without it in marching band. This store is such a valuable resource to our community. Thank you!!
