The Muzic Store

The Muzic Store is happening! It’s rare to find a store with a great bunch of people and top notch gear. Big box shops pepper their stores with a few top-​notch selections amidst mid-​level or beginner instruments. At the Muzic Store, you will find a large range of instruments from beginner to pro-​level. Jaime and Pete are such a pleasure to work with. I am currently on my 4^th pro kit from them, and I couldn’t be happier. Before going to Guitar Center or Sam Ash, do yourself a favor and visit The Muzic Store in Dobbs Ferry, NY. You will not be disappointed!

Man was I disappointed with my experience at the Muzic Store! I brought them my 1965 Fender Bandmaster guitar amp for repair. They held onto it for a couple days before even diagnosing it, and when they eventually did diagnose it, they told me they wanted to swap out every resistor and cap (it had been recapped recently) and couldn’t give me a really solid reason as to why it wasn’t working. They also wanted about $ 400 for the job. I told them absolutely not, I’d go somewhere else. Well, they didn’t like this too much and told me that my amp was in Queens with their tech and that he wouldn’t be back till the weekend. Well the weekend came and went, and when I called to inquire about getting my amp back, I was told that the tech hadn’t been able to come by and I’d have to wait another week. I explained that I am a guitarist by profession and I need to have my gear back in order to work. They heaved and sighed and said that the tech would have to make a special trip up from Queens just for my amp. I told them I didn’t care and that it wasn’t my problem and that they needed to quit holding my amp hostage. I did eventually get it back, but only after a huge headache and having to chase them around.
And guess what. I took the amp to my regular tech when he was back in town and the repair cost me $ 50. Couple suspect solder joints causing grounding issues. Easy peasey. Muzic Store really tried to rip me off and then inconvenienced me immensely when I wouldn’t pay them the exorbitant amount they quoted me.

My favorite local music store. Friendly and knowledgable staff, excellent prices, excellent and quick service. Limited selection on some items. Glad this place is so close to my house.
