Union Music Inc

I just came to Worcester for 2 weeks and have already purchased a martin guitar and a amplifier in the store.
It is definitely the best store I have ever been.
Both the quantity and the quality are great. And the people here are so nice. You can just take your time to try different kinds of staff with no pressure. And if you have question, these guys will give you exactly what you want to know and the greatest recommendation. Also, the price is affordable~~
I will definitely choose to buy everything I need for music in this store!!!~~~

Nice selection of new and used instruments. Acoustic room is much better than average. I ordered a USA G&L through them, and was very happy with the service and price. They offer consignment on used gear. They aren’t a Fender or Gibson dealer, but are a big Taylor and Martin dealer. I wish they carried a wider selection of amps. They have practice and studio space available.

Union Music is the OPPOSITE of the giant big box franchise and chain stores across the country. Here you will only find warm, experienced musicians that are knowledgeable and extremely helpful.
There are some really incredible musicians on staff for instrument lessons. The private rehearsal space is very reasonable also.
Unique to this type of music store (small and independent) is that they frequently have some really interesting and unique clinics and free group lessons where they actually let you use their instruments (djembe or ukelele for example) to learn from a professional on site, in the store!
One of my favorite things about this store is the owner Carl Kamp. Aside from being a really talented guitarist and all around musician, Carl personally stands by every transaction that takes place in the store. Should an issue arise, Carl will go our of his way to make it right. You don’t get that kind of personal attention at a big box chain store.

This place is a real gem, IMO. The staff here is knowledgeable, and helpful, and doesn’t pressure you. Well worth a 40 mile drive from Boston.
There aren’t a lot of places out there (and I mean anywhere) where the help can accurately describe to you what every single knob on a Peavey Bandit amp does! They also answer email inquiries promptly and accurately.
The prices here on new gear are quite good and if you are a G&L or ESP fan (I’m the former) — you’ll be delighted with the selection. Prices on the used stuff is decent — you’ll be able to better it on eBay or at GC I’m sure, but it seems they only accept used stuff that is in good, operational condition. I’d feel comfortable buying used from them.
I’m very, very impressed with the quality of the setups they do on their guitars. This would be a great place to take a beginner guitarist.
The only downsides to this place are the rather limited selection for new guitar gear and that it inhabits a particularly gritty area of the post-​industrial landscape that is Worcester.

This is believe it or not one of the better music stores that I’ve been to. Usually I’m not big on a lot of non corporate music stores because the selection is pretty small, but they had some good stuff, especially pre-​owned. Bought a $ 400 used ride cymbal for my drumset here, one of the best cymbals I’ve ever owned.
Didn’t really test the knowledge of the staff at all, I didn’t really need them, so I can’t speak to that, but like I said they had a solid selection. Tried to sell some things here, but didn’t. I’m not really going to fault them for that, music stores anywhere ever, will try to really undercut the value of your stuff if you try to sell it through them. Everybody’s got to try to make a profit right?

Fantastic drum lessons that make you feel like a rock star. What more could you ask for?
