Bought a very very cheap acoustic guitar from these folks about 12 years ago. Good quality guitar too.The nicest thing about this place is that they really dont care about how much money youre there to spend with them. They treat all of their customers like royalty. If youre looking to purchase a guitar be sure to pay these guys a visit before making your final decision. You wont regret it.
Id been longing to buy a new guitar! Im so happy that I finally bought it here! All staff were friendly and helpful. The man who served me knew a lot about the guitars I was looking. Great prices as well. Highly recommended for beginners who dont know much about guitars. These guys wont try and sell you anything you dont need or want.
Westwood Music never fails to amaze me. I bought my first electric guitar from them a couple months ago. They walked me through the process and let me take my time testing out the instrument in their awesome amp room. Over the last couple months, I have run into some unexpected issues with my guitar, which is normal when buying a new instrument, and they have taken great care of me and my guitar. Every time I have a problem, they invite me to bring in my guitar, and they inspect and take care of the problem right on the spot, free of charge, with a smile and handshake. I do not think - and nobody should - that multiple free set-ups/repairs is something to be expected from any guitar shop, so I am always taken by surprise when they offer to do the work for free. I may have paid a small premium to buy my guitar from their store instead of from some website or craigslist seller, but it has been more than worth it. I have saved at least $200 already as a result of their generous customer service. Westwood Music is an exceptional institution with an incredible, gracious staff, and I am so glad I got my guitar from them. I feel like I’m part of the family now. I will never buy a guitar from any other store - best guitar shop in LA, hands down. Thank you, Westwood Music. Support your local shop!!
If you are looking for an nice acoustic guitar you have to come to Westwood music. Magnificent collection of great guitars, extremely welcoming and knowledge staff and great relaxing atmosphere.I could stay there for ever and get lost in all those extraordinary guitars.
I lost my wifes guitar during a cross-country move and needed a replacement ASAP. Mark showed me exactly what I was looking for, David restrung and tuned it, and everyone was very helpful. They provide an environment of honesty and sincerity without pushing you to buy this or that. They seem like a really good bunch of guys and Ive enjoyed the transactions Ive made with them. I highly recommend Westwood Music!
My daughter has been learning piano lessons from Krystal for a few months and we see pretty good progress improvements. We are looking forward to see her continues to improve in the coming year. Thanks Krystal!
I just bought my electric guitar here! This is the best place in buying music instrument!
Started guitar less than 2 years ago. Despite knowing nothing, everyone is warm, patient, and encouraging (without being pushy). I take lessons with Jonah, who makes it fun. I bought my Fender Stratocaster here last year and a beautiful Martin 000 2 weeks ago. Id much prefer to give my money to a store like this than a brick and mortar store. Great guys and I hope the store endures.
Westwood Music has more upmarket high music stores also high end musics!!! Guitar quality is great.
Have always had a great experience with the guys at Westwood Music. I went in to get my amp repaired and they took it right away and said they would send it to their amp repair guy, he got back to me within a week and the amp was good to go just a couple weeks later and for a reasonable price. Would definitely recommend going through these guys for any of your music needs, as well as lessons or repairs.
I have dealing with this store for over 34 yrs and have bought many instruments and have had excellent repairs. Mark and David are great 👍🏻
Best store in the country. Every instrument is immaculately maintained and set up better than you can imagine. Decades of knowledge can be yours by stopping by this shop. 10 stars!
Guitar is in stunning condition and nicely set up. Thanks for the help guys!
They have top of the line guitars with prices that is affordable.
One of my favorite guitar shops.They have an extensive inventory in new and used instruments, and their repair department is extraordinary. I have gotten many of my guitars and amps worked on here. 100% satisfaction.
These guys treated me great even though all I was buying were strings. Same price as amazon or a big chain but with so much more care and a great atmosphere.
Dont bother going anywhere else for repairs! Great work and great price :)
David and Alex are the best! Those guys took great care of the veterans at New Directions in west l.a. on behalf of the veterans, thank you, we love you and God bless you
Best guitar shop ever... great instruments, best service, good people.
Best fine guitar shop Ive found in LA. Instruments are well set up. Really nice sales team.
Great atmosphere, great people, and sometimes theres a dog there. What else do you want?
I wish I could give Westwood Music 5 stars over and over again. First off everyone there at the store is super friendly and relaxed. They didnt seem to mind when I picked up any guitar to play. They dont have as many guitars as the Corporate store with the employees that have no clue (you know who Im talkin about) but every guitar I picked up had superb tone and feel! Some that looked real vintage too! Like the Ricky 12 with the 6 string comb! Well...as there are no Pleking machines where I live...I drove all the way down from Ventura to have my Brand New Old Stock (2011) Chinese Gretsch 5135CVT (Corvette) guitar Plekd as when I lowered the action it fretted out and choked notes high and low.I came to pick it up and it was better and pretty good, however I still wanted it as low as it could possibly be like my 1969 Gibson SG which is like a Fretless Wonder.I have little hands and I can feel the slightest amount. The house luthier, David listened to what I was saying...and within seconds without making a face or batting an eyelash he said wait...give me a few more minutes with it. He went back into his shop where I heard some grinding and whizzing and saw him twisting and turning over the guitar like a surgeon saving someones life and then he emerged with my $500 guitar sounding (not even plugged in)and playing like a precision $2500 Gretsch!He didnt even charge me a penny for the nut work or extra adjustment when he took it back in! Sure, people need to be paid for their work...but this is a man who does a great job because he is compelled to use his gift with benevolence. It is now one of the best playing guitars I own. Super low action with improved sustain and fast, effortless playability! Thank you David, Mark and all the other employees at Westwood Music. I will do business there again!
Have everything
I bought the Lakewood M14 guitar online earlier. It is brand new on the Internet. After careful inspection, I found that there are many depressions. This is a dishonest piano shop. I will not buy anything here again in the future.
