Its a unique place where you can buy music like vinyl records and all kinds of collections. I took my grandson and he thought it was awesome. He was amazed of how everything was displayed. We had an amazing time just browsing and shopping.
RM is by far the best local owned music business for all the gear you need modern and vintage...
Great place and super helpful staff. Always worth stopping in to see if they have any cool new (vintage/used) guitars and pedals. Lots of interesting gear!!
I have been visiting guitar shops my entire life. My father and I both play. I have never been to a shop as cool as Robot Monster. It is my #1 go to shop. Awesome gear, great environment, and cool staff. I highly recommend.
They have a really cool selection of guitars, basses, amps, and other interesting items -- looks almost more like a museum than a store. Sales staff are bit too stand-offish. Prices are a bit high here as well. Even if you dont end up buying anything, like me, its worth the visit just to see the place. For decent secondhand instruments & equipment at a better price, I go to Music Go Round on Blanco Rd.
Best place in town! I love the staff and the store along with all the special events and giveaways they do!
Being a personal friend of the guy who is fixing my guitar amplifier I give him High Marks!
Took my nephew to sell a guitar. Very humble manager. Money given was fair. Place looks fun. Atmosphere is happy and ROCKIN....THUMBS UP.
Lots of beautiful guitars,other various instruments..sweet pedals! ❤️Also,an interesting selection of collector toys & knick knacks!
Friendly staff/ great service. I doesnt hurt that its a two minute walk from my front door.
Awesome place to go to in the neighborhood, I always find what I need & help when needed.
Super cool guitar shop. Super friendly ladies behind the counter. Definitely stop if your in the area.
Awesome place and people. Great used gear at good prices. Fun to look. Excellent setup on guitar at great price

Great people, awesome atmosphere, excellent prices! Always looking forward to my next trip here
Very unique store 🤘🏽🔥
Cool place for buying stuff and stuff*
Joe is a friendly chap that gave me a good deal on cables and a double guitar Gator Case. Most is used but i enjoy the atmosphere of his very hometown feeling business unlike big box stores. Check it out!
Absolutely a great place to visit and hang out
My son enjoys this place so much and always finds trinkets and patches he enjoys. Staff was awesome!!
Really fun store with great variety of instruments, collectables and community of fans.
Not alot
Awesome pedal selection and very friendly + knowledgeable folx. They are very supportive of the community too. They take good COVID precautions so please go support them if youre in the market for gear, black clothing, or collectible toys!
The coolest most best homies and they know alot about gear!!!
Very intimate and for any hardcore music lover this is a find
Really awesome little store right off St. Marys. The kind of place you can find things that you never knew existed. From guitar to amps to pedals to vinyl to vintage toys and magazines. You can get lost for days. Staff is also quite friendly and very helpful
If you want a music store with a cool and varied selection of guitars, amps, vinyl, collectibles, and more, and a staff and owner who are always cool and respectful, this is your place. The vibe is welcoming, and they legitimately care about musicians. I will always recommend them.
Above and beyond service and friendly employees. They have everything here!
Staff is friendly and very knowledgeable. Found out about this place back in 2015 while I was at another music store. After the poor quality service at Guitar Center, I decided to give them a try. I wasnt disappointed. They offer guitar repairs at a lower price than the other shops. I had the pickups changed in my Dean guitar for $45 for both. I went back last year to have a route done on another guitar to accommodate a left-handed Floyd Rose. I was only charged $85 for the route and setup.This store also has great memorabilia and an interesting music collection. I will always come here.
Cool retro shop, decent selection including some lap steels and sitars.
Buy gently used guitars and amps. Back room filled with collectible toys, vinyl records, magazines and books. The staff at this spot are talented musicians who know the biz. Reasonable prices including repairs.
These guys always have what Im looking for!This spots been my go-to for high-end musical gear, hard-to-find vinyl, vintage collectibles or even the unique oddity.You can find it all, AND MORE, here!
Cool spot for a used guitar
Amazing deals. Ask for Joe
Great shop. You will find everything collectable here. I needed to replace some machine tuners and they had what I needed. Building a guitar, They have everything you need. New to used parts.
Hi just have to say Freaking Awesome!!! A no frills down to earth shop. Thank you Roland for a GREAT job on setting up my ESP guitar.
Joe and the crew are always friendly, its always fun to stop by and say hello.
Love this place, great items and great people. ☠️🎸🎤🎶
Always Badass here! Love the staff. Knowledgeable, friendly, and wont ever look down on you for what you know and dont know. if youre a beginner to an expert you can always find something for you here. The novelty items and toys are rad. Awesome cult and classic movie section. The record selection is awesome. And above all, The only place I trust with my guitar and amp repairs. Never have I once been overcharged or let to believe I need to buy and spend more than I needed to. Check it out. It wont disappoint
Friendly atmosphere, amazing collection of guitars. And the most random stuff you could imagine. The world needs more stores like this. Went here for guitar strings and they were priced well. Im sure Ill be going back.
Full of neat musical instruments and collectibles, the prices are low too!
Great guitar shop. Joe and the rest of the staff bend over backwards to make sure you get what you came for. Please support small local business!!
I had a good very good experience with one of the owners of Robot guitars, Joe. He rectified the situation that had stuck in my craw about a repair gone wrong. I was very appreciative of his effort that he had put into making things right. And his great idea turned into reality for a guitar show annually in San Antonio.
Best shop in town! Support the local business! These guys are all professional and will help you clarify any and all questions you have about your musical gear. Theyll take a look at your guitar if theres a problem, they help repair amps and instruments, and most importantly not overcharge you like corporate music shops! I buy all my gear here, and without a doubt buy even more for years to come!
Decent selection and price ranges. No extended layaway. Techs sometimes back logged..i have purchased from here and been mostly satisfied. If payment options were a bit more flexible i would purchase more often. They try to move merch quickly. Check it out!
Love visiting this store when im on this side of town, interesting finds, good condition vintage items, you can even request certain finds and they will contact you if they come across it! Lots of musical instruments, and even some taxidermy. Fun place to find some interesting oddities
Bought a used bass guitar head for really cheap during a big sale they had. Still works perfect. I bring friends to the shop sometimes just to show them the unique items. They have an experienced amplifier mechanic thats taken care of some of my more vintage equipment. Also a good experience.
Great cozy location and employees really make you feel welcomed.
Best spot for anything guitar. The guys know their stuff and I ONLY trust them with my gear. Theyve rewired several instruments for me with absolutely no problems. Fast, smart and local small business....best you can ask for.
Beyond unique guitar/comic fan shop. Alas you dont have to drive to Austin for the weird yet awesome things this world has to offer. Great selection of classic vintage guitars amps and pedals. Even Joe Bonamassa went there!
What an awesome little shop. Very hidden gem. My husband went in today to hey some strings changed on his guitar. And I of course shopped around. Just walking into this shop makes you feel like a kid again.
Genuinely the coolest mom & pop shop Ive ever visited. Youll walk around the store 20 times and still feel like you missed something. Customer service was incredible. If you need something fixed, skip out on Guitar Center and take it to someone who genuinely knows what theyre doing and does it for the love of doing it. 10/10.
A very friendly group of people! Ready and willing to jump in and help you get what you need.
Great place. Love all the old stuff they have.
Friendly Staff! Cozy corners chocked full of nostalgia to please your eyes or for your choosing. Itll take you back. Oh, and a great selection of guitars and accessories.
Great guitar shop and a lot to see. The gentleman working behind the counter was very nice.
Excellent customer service! Cheap prices, rare and common instruments and amplifiers! Its my new favorite instrument shop
Always has a large amount of punk memorabilia! Tons of danzig and misfits stuff, not to mention A BUNCH OF GUITARS, AMPS, AND OTHER INSTRUMENTS. I miss Joe, he is awesome, knowledgeable, and if your looking for oddity items he will find it or have it!
Roland helped me out restoring my first love back to glory! Great staff great gear definitely would will be going back with my other guitar soon
It was a hoot! They rescued a giant old dog while I was there and restored my faith in a select group of humanity. It was amazing!
My 13 year old son recently stopped by Monster and was so happy he did. He was surprised how friendly and helpful the are. He normally would go to the two big music store chains and was used to being ignored. Over the summer he had saved up for an Ibanez RG and the big music store employees were more interesting talking with each other than answering any questions. Thanks.
Lots of stuff
Everyone keeps saying friendly staff but idk what business theyre talking about because as soon as we entered dude had attitude and seemed to hate life. Definitely wont be back.
Really cool gear. No pretense. Just got an 81 Washburn raven for the right price.
Great service, great price, great guitar shop!
Fantastic place. Get away from the chain stores and go here for real personal attention.
Knowledgeable staff, great prices. check this place out!
Cool place for unique gifts as well as guitars and musical equipment!!!
Great place! Cool staff, and lots of guitars to drool on

Friendly staff. Very help and knowledgeable. And great prices !
Awseome. Owner is a really nice guy. Great selection. Reasonable prices.
Best music store in San Antonio, possibly Texas. Years of knowledge in instruments, Amps, repairs. And some of the coolest people around.
Great staff and great selection of guitars, amps and pedals
This place is great for instruments and musical equipment
Very quarky shop. An array of price ranges with plenty of interesting gear to choose from. They also carry clothes, collectables nd a few other things. Certainly worth seeing. Its the most interesting guitar shop I have been to.
Robot Monster has a nice variety of reasonably priced used guitars & effects.
If you need your senses assaulted with randomness, beauty, chill and friendly people and an absolute cornucopia of amazing guitars, come to here 😃
Everytime I come here I get a good experience! Shout out to joe for the awesome service !
A must stop for vintage guitar and Rock and Roll enthusiasts.
These guys are awesome. Very friendly, great prices, great service. Thank you Joe and company!
You just gotta go in there, its like a museam. Plus they got the best deal on guitar repairs in San Antonio!
Took guitar for a set up and they fixed it two days faster than quoted, also has a nice atmosphere and cool things to buy.
Cool little shop. Alot of interesting things. Customer service sucks though....
What a gem!! Great staff and tons of gear selections to choose from.
Friendly relaxed atmosphere. Browsers Paradise
The name says it all. Cool, classic, cant find items drop in and drop out
Best guitar shop in town. Also the coolest.
Friendly guys - Joe, Chris, and Shaun are knowledgeable and have years of experience in the SA music scene.Lots of rare instruments and collectables. NOT A WAL-MART MUSIC SHOP. If youre looking for guitars, amps, effects or underground vinyls, pay these guys a visit.
You never now what youre going to find at Robot Monster. Came in looking for a guitar case and left with an amp.
They have everything you need. Glad I found this place. Great friendly Customer service.
