So for you musicians who want to travel off the beaten Guitar Center path, this place is for you. The employees are very helpful, knowledgeable, and friendly. This place showcases nearly every instrument you can imagine and is chalked full of history. For those of you who have children in band they also have a great rental and rent to own program for tons of different instruments. This place probably has the biggest selection of drum equipment that I've seen in AZ; so much so that they lock up the cymbals in a separate room. Some items are a little more expensive than competitors but most of the time you can negotiate a deal with the employees. This place is smack dab in downtown Mesa so you will more than likely need to park in the rear of the store.
