Went to pick up a placed and paid for order.With the speed of technology today you would expect an order to not take more than a few minutes to complete.Showed up hours after the order was complete and they still did not have the finished paperwork to release the product.Now had to schedule another person to go pick it up.Lots of wasted time!
During COVID I decided to pick up playing acoustic guitar. I bought my guitar, case, picks and accessories here. Just recently, I start in person guitar lessons as I was having some issues with my self taught learning.Eric has been my instructor and so far he is helping me improve my playing. I look forward to continuing to learn and grow and can see coming back for other stuff I will need later.
I had some reservations about ordering a guitar online. The sales manager there by the name of Trevor went above and beyond to make a good deal even better!! Big thanks !!! Great place to order from!!
I purchased a few instruments there and my kids take music lessons 🎶🎸🎹 they love it, the staff is friendly, if you have questions they provide good answers and suggestions, I like that they allow you try any type of instrument that you have in mind, it is a nice store
So far, the employees have been very helpful and theyve had just what we were looking for. Looking forward to experiencing lessons here.
Very nice customer service. We took our son to try out some of their guitars and they checked on us many times to make sure we were doing ok. We ended up buying other stuff but well come back to get the guitar later on since they have a trade-in even going on.
Store manager was super helpful with the questions I had. Let me do my own thing, which is great. No pressure from sales staff and a decent selection.
Bought my piano from there. Great service. Good price matching
Good selection, sometimes a challenge to find a knowledgeable salesperson. Frank is the best, and everyone is helpful.
Just OK, small used electric guitar section, not very helpful staff. Friendly as far as saying HI, but no offer of playing any instruments or asking what I am looking for.
Enjoyed playing with the instrument 🎸 keyboard 🎹
Love guitar center. This location is always set up nicely and the customer service is always great. I enjoy coming and trying out instruments before making a decision to purchase.
Found all the percussion supplies we needed. Great staff
Who doesnt love this place. My daughter really enjoys the guitar instructors.
Clean well organized store, great customer care.
The young Gent that helped me at Guitar Center, I believe he was a new employee.That young man was very respectful, polite with a humble Spirit as he spoke to me. If he did not have the answers to my questions he made an effort to get the answers, he took the time to help me understand the equipment that I was purchasing and also explain the warranty that was available w/o me asking. I appreciate that young Gentlemen because of the respect he gave me and if the world had more people living in it like him... it would be a better place. I wish him nothing but blessings in his journey of life...FYI: NEVER CHANGE.
I swore I would never go back to a guitar center but the staff at this one changed my mind. Prices are same as sweetwater and you get it the same day. Justin was awesome and had some great info on a lot of different products, obviously very knowledgeable about music. Both times I was in, I was checked on multiple times and had many questions answered. Keep up the good work. Cant be easy listening to smoke on the water played out of tune 400 times a day.
For what I needed, it was well priced. Very helpful staff.
My favorite go-to place to get music gear. Even though they are limited on some equipment, the Staff is very knowledgeable, helpful and passionate about helping you with your gear needs. Miguel is a standout and standup guy when it comes to making your customer expert top tier! Highly recommend shopping here!
Great place to shop or get advice.
The store was clean. The staff immediately greeted me when I walked in and pointed me in the right direction of where I needed to go to find what I was looking for. It was awesome listening to people play different instruments.I was however surprised that I was in the store for 45 minutes and at no point did anyone come and ask me if I needed help or engage with me in any way. So that was disappointing.
We visited the store when we came home to Michigan a year ago! The place has a certain ambiance that drew us in! Im not a guitar person, my son was and he was blown away by the selection and service he received while we were there! Even though I dont live in Michigan anymore, I will support this shop if I can if we need accessories and when my son is able to afford that Les Paul he wants, he will look her first!!
Good selection, great prices and Kevin was a awesome guy that walked us though what to get for the best price. Told us about learning groups, places to play, and jammed with us.
My favorite place to buy new instruments and accessories. Great service and selection.
Nice personnel. Was helping a couple next to me, ignored me as i was searching for an adapter and didnt acknowledge me whats so ever. It was only one associate though, everyone else was helpful
I brought my Gibson Acoustic in for a set up. I am always a little skeptical about trusting people with my baby however the tech seemed very knowledgeable. I picked up my guitar yesterday after having the Platinum Service completed. Just wanted to give a very big thank you to Xander (hope I spelled that right) for taking care of my guitar. He did a great job and I could not be more satisfied. My guitar plays better than it ever has. Thank you.
Yesterday I went to the guitar store, I’ve been interested in playing an electric guitar even though I’ve never played anything before. When I walk into the store I see many guitars, drums, and other instruments. They have nice instruments!When I was looking for an electric guitar I would be interested in there was no “ how may I help you” or “ what could I do to assist you today” they’re instruments are quite nice but they’re staff doesn’t help the customer at all. I’m very disappointed in but I’ll still go because they’re instruments are nice.
This store is always good and friendly, people always polite and not pushing for you to buy, always is a good experience
I didnt feel welcome... I kids love this place but...
Grate store and amazing people
Staff is very helpful. Great variety and quality instruments.
Great customer service. The young man was very knowledgeable and friendly.
Best service ever
Its guitar center wouldnt give it 5 stars because its hard to get help because it always swamped.
This is my go to place for all things guitar. But, man, I cannot stand Kevin helping me! Everytime its him helping, he will turn around and have a full conversation with someone about some other stuff and Ill be standing there looking at everyone like hello do you not see me. So annoying
Stefano and his team provided great customer service.I am from Orlando, my transaction was made over the phone.Item was received as described and on the day that it was promised.Thank you.
I hope this place doesnt go out of business! The staff is helpful as usual. Lots to items to choose from. More people should learn how to play an instrument. They have everything a musician needs.
Very friendly help from Trevor in ordering my headphones. Great knowledge in electronic drums as well.
Knowledgeable staff, but they are scarce.
Very talented and kind employees! My dude broke out in song on guitar, it was amazing! They also have good instruments, clean and neat!
The employees at this store are super friendly and helpful..Im glad I went there to buy a piano...
I put a Guitar on layaway last year for my son. 50$ deposit. We decided on a different gift for Christmas. I worked out of town a LOT over the next few months. I wasnt able to make it back to this store to get a cash refund or use my credit. I dont live near this location & was so busy with work that I couldnt make it back...I was told that my 50$ was no long available. 🤨
Went in there yesterday on my birthday to make a big purchase, as I had a few guitar models in mind after looking up their inventory online. No one acknowledged me in regards to sales help. Two of the staff where plugged in and jamming. Every single tele I looked at had major body damage and chips to the finish. I grabbed one and asked if this was just a floor model and they had more in the back. I was told whats on the rack is what they have and the price is what it is. I went and browsed some more hoping to find something that wasnt a mess, and no one again came over to assist or inquire what my needs were. I left frustrated and no one greeted me as I left. If they dont get in to high gear and change things they will be out of business at that location within a year. With that presentation Id personally never go back.
Today I visited the Katy and College Station Texas locations. I was in Houston for work today and arrived at the Katy location at 1:30 PM. I was in front of the guitars for about 15 minutes. There were only 2 other customers and 5 employees present. Never 1 word from any employees to me. 2 employees were at the service counter across from the guitars casually talking to each other. I made eye contact with both but they never moved so I left.Unbelievably, on the way back to my office I stopped by the College Station location at 3:30 PM and the same scenario played out. The only differences were 3 available employees and on the way out the door I literally heard later dude.Heres a tip for both locations. When an older guy comes into the store wearing a shirt with his companys logo on it and stares at the top row of guitars he just might have a job and have money. In this case money to buy a $1100.00 guitar.I have already purchased an Alesis DM10 drum set, a Gretsch guitar and many accessories from the College Station location. I have also purchased several guitars from Dallas and Arlington locations including 2 custom shop Fender Stratocasters. I have spent many thousands of dollars at Guitar Center over the years. I suppose customer loyalty and customer service are just not what they used to be. Sad.
Theyre out of alot of stuff. But nice employees.
Electronic selection is not worth seeing. People were nice.
Very helpful associates.
I came here looking for a used Electric Guitar and found a very reasonably priced one with a brand new neck. After attempting to tune it I had some trouble. I returned with the guitar and Frank went right away to helping me. After about 30 mins and some instruction the guitar was playing wonderfully and holding a tune. Thank alot!!! I will be back!!
Same great service as a california store
I always have a great experience at guitar center. The staff are always friendly.
I love guitar center! 👍
Great variety of accessories.
Great place friendly staff. A guitar is next on my list.
Relaxed but immediate service! Great Experience
My dad loves this store and the team of super friendly people employed there.
Got good help searching for headphones for my electric piano.
Amazing they had exactly what I wanted and honestly for a good price. Staff was professional
Great staff & customer service experience. Dakota was the MVP, very attentive and had an amp set up for me before I could say a word. Thanks bruv!
Guitar stores are always fun to visit. This place has something for everyone. A little more focus on salesmanship instead of musicianship by all of the sales staff would be nice.
Great place!
Friendly staff. Very knowledgeable, reasonable prices.
My son takes drum lessons and really enjoys it. His instructor, Mike, is a great teacher with so much experience and knowledge. Prices are fair, wonderful customer service, clean and organized store.
Not too much of a selection guitar wise. I was upset about that.
Great customer service!
Musical and Enjoyable🎵
Great service

Great customer service and a really nice selection of guitars. The guys were very patient in helping me find just the right guitar for me and even helped me save some money. Have shopped several times before but just got around to reviewing. Thanks for all yalls help. One happy customer.
Chris in the Lessons Dept was super attentive and accommodating when I took my 7 year old for the free kids guitar lesson last night. He did everything possible to make sure we were situated, comfortable, and expressed genuine concern when a part of my sons guitar broke off. Appreciate it, Chris!
Friendly and helpful.
We buy all of our kids music stuff here
I have made purchases large and small at this location. Service is great, associates are well informed, no pressure in sales....just a wonderful shopping experience.
Great service with strong health safety precautions.
Great place to shop for any skill level player! They have a great selection of guitars and more, I bought my first guitar there and even though it was used they keeped it in great condition. They have a wide variety of product and I would recommend it to anyone.
Great staff and always willing to help. New to the guitar world and We love this place. Great deals
A surprising amount of instruments and equipment inside....including ALOT of the latest (and coolest) stuff.Staff was very down to earth and easily approachable; All were very willing to assist me with the smallest of things. They all had professional, albeit friendly, attitudes as opposed to the robotic androids encountered at some OTHER Music & Instrument stores.
I bought an amazing Yamaha acoustic guitar, at a very good price! Frank was very helpful as well. Definitely an awesome place to shop for musical instruments.
Great equipment and products, but its the same problem in a typical retail store today - no one has the technical knowledge to assist me and there arent enough employees in the building. Feels a lot like Home Depot! I research the equipment online, contact tech support directly associated with the brands that Im interested in buying, then purchase from Guitar Center. But dont rely on their staff for technical knowledge!
Staff just hangs out, doesnt offer help.
Have visited here several times. Zach helped with a modification to my acoustic guitar and was very knowledgeable and friendly. A manager also helped me make a purchase decision on an acoustic by playing both and articulating differences in sound and fabrication of the guitars. Great experiences here.
Went all over town looking for sound equipment for my church only to find out that this place is the one stop shop. The prices are reasonable and the staff are friendly and helpful..
I was needing some assistance to buy mics and rhythm machines .. assistance was really great. Associate helped me with different mics and machines in details and also asked whats our basic need and we explained our church needs and he further customized our items and suggested the items which really best suited our needs. Unfortunately I dont remember his name but kudos to him.
Good covid guideline process and very helpful staff.
Excellent selection of most types of audio, or audio related equipment. The manager Carlos was very helpful, and knowledgeable about any products I asked about. I was impressed with the cleanliness, organization, and the high quality level of service that I received. Bravo!
I called ahead to see if they could fit me in to have my ukelele restrung. The tech was on his way out, but was gracious enough to fit me in. All of the guys were friendly, and gave a warm greeting. Definitely recommend this Guitar Center if youre in the area.
They have BEAUTIFUL guitars and all kinds of drums and stuff! i recommend guitar center to every music lover! very nice store.
Its a great place. I shaved off 2 stars because Kevin, regularly working employee there, has always put his conversations before helping me. Who knows maybe its just me. Then again though, I am a customer. Never have I once seen him help people with their needs. My advice, go to the Westheimer guitar center :)
Super friendly and helpful staff
These guys are awesome. I come in every now and then to blow off steam and look at all their equipment. The staff is nice and the equipment is well organized. Theyll ask if you need help if you look like you need help, otherwise they wont both you. Each employee Id knowledgeable and attentive. Check it out and consider buying from a guitar center so we can keepem in business.
They have a big selection of guitars, if you love them you could spend hours just checking, its really nice. However, I went to buy an acoustic guitar and I couldnt get help from salesman because he was too busy with others. Whats the point of having a huge store if you dont have enough personnel?!
Employees take care of that store and keep it nice and neat. Good customer service and good selection
Super friendly staff! Great selection of instruments! For a lady who was just looking, I felt no pressure at all by employees! I highly recommend people checking out this location!
Super friendly staff. Chris was outstanding and went above and beyond to make me feel welcome. He providing me with enough material to help me make an informed decision about getting guitar lessons.
**UPDATE 9/25/19 - The manager called me and resolved the issue. HAPPY kiddo makes a happy parent/customer. Thanks Guitar Center!!9/21Overbooked my child’s appointment. I show up and another child is there for the time. I say that’s okay accidents happen I will be back next week. Wait we gave your time slot away too. WHAT. You can have a different teacher on a different day. I have two kids taking lessons here which is why I scheduled the lessons at the same time. Why would I move my kids who already have a rapport with their teachers and come on two different days. Why not own up to the mistake YOU made and fix it. Taking my money and kids elsewhere!!Asked to speak to the manager. He had already left by 6 on Saturday. Looking forward to hearing from Trevor (not back till Tuesday). Had to drive home with a 6 year old in tears. Thanks a lot!!!!
Great place for musical equipment. I must see if you are interested in purchasing guitars drums and a variety of other items.
Always great service and advice from the sales associates.
