It's hard to get a music store right and also make money at it. I've worked in music stores, taught in music stores and am a music teacher. AZ Music does it right. There aren't many like this around any more.
*The employees are friendly and quick to educate you about anything you may wish to know.
*The repair facility is top notch. Don't be scared away by the $50 bench fee for pro audio repairs. I had my Mackie amplifier repaired here. Rex is the master and it was a pleasure to shake his hand.
*They offer lessons which are the bread and butter of most music stores these days and I've heard great things from students and parents about their staff in that respect.
*They are fair priced and do special orders.
Long story short, GO TO AZ MUSIC!
