RDG are a group of professionals with very high standards with a very knowledgeable staff. They seek perfection in their work. Its a must to go for serious woodwind players.
If you need an oboe, or Bassoon or other woodwinds this is the goto place in SoCal
Los Angeles is fortunate to have RDG. Nancy & her team of professionals are an outstanding group. Totally knowledgeable about anything having to do with woodwind musical instruments. They offer the highest quality of woodwind products and repair service found anywhere in the world. If you play a double-reed instrument, oboe or bassoon, this place is a god send. Always has been. Robert Gilbert’s tradition of quality & service is as strong as ever.
Great shop. Very nice staff and good selection of woodwind instruments. Tried out many oboes with our daughters oboe teacher and they were patient. Its amazing how much each instrument varies. Highly recommend.
My favorite place to go! Incredible quality of repairs coupled with great prices! The staff are all top notch musicians and wonderful people. They really feel like family. You can also order from them over the phone or online, always a great experience!
Great selection of new and used instruments, testing rooms, friendly staff. Trial program of theirs is unbeatable. The fact that technician James is available to consul and answer questions, is quite a big deal too. Highly recommended.
Great customer service, very polite and courteous. Staff is well knowledgeable and have what you need.
Best music store in the country. I have been many years for my daughters oboe. The workers are all knowledgable musicians. Always kind and helpful.
The place to go for clarinets in Los Angeles. Extremely attentive staff, great atmosphere. They take care of the pros, so you know its the best.
Incredible people and great products. Minimal gate keeping and prejudice for instrumental doublers! Its a hike but I like that they have top notch double reed and clarinet products all in one place!
Good service. Knowledgeable staff.
I attempted to rent an instrument through them and am terribly disappointed in the lack of communication from their rental department. My email and voicemail were both ignored for several weeks, and when I finally went through the sales staff to reach the rental department I was told that the instrument I need had been rented days after my organizations initial inquiry about it, several months ago - however, no update was ever given. Three stars because the staff was able to refer me elsewhere, however the lack of communication does not give me much time to search.
Artist level repair technicians and a good inventory of professional products, staffed by knowledgeable and friendly people.
Knowledgable stuff and very helpful.This is my go to store and highly recommend.
Fantastic service! This is the mecca of double reeds in the region
Great staff. Excellent service and very knowledgable.
Wonderful store with excellent customer service. If you play woodwind instruments this is the place for you
Theyre so helpful! And I love their reeds.
I got a new mouth piece here. They have a good setup, as well as a wide range of products for clarinet, oboe, and bassoon. Only problem is its rather hidden. Also, the repair queue can get backed up.
Nice place for your woodwind needs… I got bassoon reed cases, thread (Dodger blue) and tools from here. Instrument trials are available on appointment basis.
Friendly and professional staff, good selection of new and used instruments.
It is the absolute best shop for all of your oboe and Clarinet needs. I play clarinet and they have repaired my clarinet a plethora of times.
Very helpful and friendly staff.
They are the best in Southern California when it comes to repairing clarinets, oboes, and bassoons.
The staff always have a smile for you
Insanely great customer service
Helpful staff
