We are super picky but all about buying used aka cheap haha. This store was amazing and so was the owner. Patient with my kids and gave honest advice. If you are looking for an instrument, check him out.

A nice alternative to places like Guitar Center. Friendly staff, plenty of equipment for every type of musician. It can be a little pricey, but Im willing to pay to support a local music store. I recommend that you at least come by for yourself and form your own opinion.

They have an awesome inventory of instruments, equipment, and music related things; a lot of cool vintage items. But they have horrible customer service. I went in because I had passed the store a few times and I just wanted to check it out, but it seemed like they couldnt wait to get me out the door. They didnt seem very interested in talking with me or helping me find items I was looking for.

Constantly advertising going out of business clearance sales, but they never go out of business. How do they live with themselves? Do they have no conscience?

If I could give a negative star rating I would. Sylvester, the owner ripped me off and screwed up my guitar. I have a project guitar with a bolt on neck that I bought without a neck plate. I drove by the store and stopped in to see if they had a neck plate that would fit. The plate is a unique size and they didnt have one that would fit so Sylvester said he could make one that would work. The guitar also needed some wiring to be done for some EMG pickups. All told, he said it would be an hour and a half of labor charged. I pick up my guitar and the wiring was not done at all and the neck moved around because he used a crappy piece of metal as a neck plate and it didnt hold the neck in place. I took it back and Sylvester said he would fix it. So his fix was an equally crappy new neck plate and he glued the neck to the body because he couldnt get his neck plate to hold the neck in place. And as an added bonus, he used screws that were too long so two of them poked through the fingerboard! So I took it back to him a third time to have him remove the neck from the body sine it was glued on and he had to steam the guitar to get it off. He did offer to fix it again, but I didnt want anymore crappy work or damage done to my guitar so I just took it back. So for about $120 I got my guitar back without the wiring done, no neck plate that would work, with a bunch of glue residue in the neck pocket and two custom installed holes in my fingerboard.... Nice job Freedom Guitar! Run from this place.

The staff were very helpful, and got my child set up with a decent flute.

Great parts supply, shrinking inventory to sell off but some decent used gear.

High prices, poor service, and a store that could, quite frankly, easily be cleaner and better organized.

Dewey and Sylvester are old school cheats who will invite you in as friendly businessmen, then lie, cheat and steal from you when they have your stuff. Stay away if you know what is good for you. I wish I listened to the reviewes here :( I took an amp there for repair, they charged me a diagnosis fee (which they didnt tell me about before I came in), then took over 2 months to get a part, which the supplier said they had in stock. When I brought my amp to be repaired, they charged me more than the estimate (the exact cost of the diagnosis fee), without my authorization. Filed a complaint with Breau of electronic repair. Go to guitar center or anywhere else, these guys are old school bait cheats!

They were generous with donating a piece of equipment to Tremble Clefs San Diego, a nonprofit music therapy group for folks living with Parkinsons Disease.The owner, Sylvester, is a true hero.
