Best Museum in Phoenix hands down!
I didn't know what to expect when walking in this huge museum but was super excited once I started exploring around. Downstairs starts off with some vintage guitars from around the world. Once upstairs your self guided with the help of headphones that changes from section to section when you walk up to each exhibit. They also have videos in the exhibits showing how the people use each instrument being heard, and some showed how the instruments were made. Over 10,000 instruments from around the world spanning from Air Guitar (yes I said it) to everything you can't imagine that makes noise.
They have the museum so organized it was fun to go from country to country getting samples of the different types of music to actually hear the instruments being shown. I went and spent a couple of hours before closing time, and still didn't get to see everything. I would suggest to wear comfortable shoes and allow at least three hours to experience everything. I'll be back to explore the areas I didn't get to visit in the future. A must see museum.
