My daughter started violin lessons with a new teacher and her $80 instrument from Amazon was not cutting it. He sent us to Central Music to rent a smaller, better instrument. We had three choices and price points, and I selected the "student" one which was the least expensive, and wow, this instrument sounds so much better and is in great shape! We were in and out of the shop in 20 minutes. The salesperson helping us was knowledgeable and friendly and we were able to find the accessories we needed as well (shoulder rest sponge and rosin). She's been playing it for 3 months with no issues and it doesn't go out of tune quickly like her cheap one. Billing is automatic and easy, with no mistakes. Such a great experience - we'll definitely be back when it's time to upgrade to the next one!

I had the pleasure of talking to the owner, Roy. He is amazing! The building of the light rail didn't stop him from selling and sharing his love of music. The Covid pandemic didn't stop him! He is such an authentic human that loves to share stories about life. I had to change my little human's instrument out and it was such a smooth easy process! Absolutely recommend that you stop in and say hi and check out his shop! It even has an adorable wooden bear bench to take a pause on. Thank you, Roy, for a wonderful experience!

Always a great experience. Staff is very knowledgeable and friendly. They take time with each customer. My daughter plays trumpet and we were not sure if we needed to exchange our rental instrument because the case was damaged. They were incredible, took the time to provide options and ultimately my daughter kept the one she had. They have lots of other small gifts and puzzle. Will definitely be back!

I had a great experience with it being my first time going there. The person there was very nice to me. Gave me great advice on guitar strings, even restrung the brand new string for me without any issues. I really did appreciate my first time there and will definitely be back again.

Cool little shop. People and staff are nice there. Remember that this is a great shop if you want to shop for sheet music! They have tons of sheet music, and odds and ends for instruments. This isn't the place to go for buying or renting instruments. Cool place, but mainly just for sheet music.

The old saying that you can never go home again is mostly true — except in the case of Central Music.Back when Phoenix — and my skills as a musician — were less developed, I spent lots of time at CM buying all kinds of blues guitar learnin’ stuff.And the high point was getting to chat with Roy the manager; he always made me feel right at home.Fast forward lots of years and I get nostalgic for a visit to the place. And amazingly, it’s exactly as I remembered it. And there was Roy, still standing behind the counter; a bit older, but still as friendly as ever.At Central music you can get sheet music, instruments, picks, strings, straps, and a whole bunch of other stuff. It’s certainly no big name, big box music store like we see all over town, but that’s the beauty of it.Stepping back into Central Music for me was like stepping back in time… and proof that sometimes you really can go home.
