Well here it is, my review, at last. I have been a loyal customer for many years and for good reason. Customer service, support are excellent. The products they carry are hand selected so I know there is some feeling put into what I buy. After all this time Music One and I have built a unique relationship. George and Larry and Sarah each know my musical tastes and interests. The musicianship of these folks is such that the most fun of buying a guitar is listening to them demo it for me. Great work Music One.

I have bought three instruments from Music one in the last month and have had an awesome experience. They are very knowledgeable and friendly! They go through great lengths to help and answer any questions and offer recommendations. Buying online is not the same as going in and actually playing and listening to the instrument your in search for!Best music store in the valley. I highly recommend them!!

What can you say other than the fact that George and Larry are staples of the community and offer incredible instruments at competitive rates, not to mention they are world renowned for their work and repairs. It’s pretty refreshing to called by your first name and to do business with a handshake. I’ve been doing business with them for 20 years and at this point I will never buy from another musical store. Thank you guys for all your help and for helping keep music alive in a rapidly changing environment.

I love what they have done to the store! It a more open feel...not so cluttered. George was very nice and the price quoted to professionally setup my bass was very reasonable. Im glad we have MusicOne in the Flathead Valley!

Can’t say enough good stuff. I was from out of town, wandered in to try out an Ohana ukulele, spent a lovely fifteen minutes or so chatting with Serra and suddenly I was in love with a Fender! I will most certainly be back and would recommend this shop to literally anyone.

Its the only shop that is a dealer in the valley. So they get away with not having competition and its old school. But for what it is and where they are, it works. And theyre more than happy to order anything you want. All prices are at internet price so no need to order online. Also the set up services and repair techs are way better than what you might run into in a mianstream retail joint. So thats a plus.

Ive stopped in this shop a half dozen times over the years and every time I get brushed off and ignored. Plenty of other music stores that are glad to take my money.

I live out of town, but my Son, who loves Music One, speaks highly and has always respected the staff here.Ive gotten a few gift certificates in the past, and theyve always honored and been very helpful!This is my latest purchase. Even tho I knew I couldve ordered online for cheaper, I would most definitely prefer to give my business to a local store.When I didnt have a case I could get this Ganjo home safely in, they let me borrow this case until a new one could be ordered, and I thought that was very cool! I appreciated it!I highly recommend this shop

An excellent family owned music shop. You won’t get the quality, care, or knowledge from those “on-line” music sites. Choose Music One!

Review №29

Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. We had a great experience buying a digital piano here. We were pleasantly surprised to find the prices for the piano and accessories were the same or cheaper than online, which made choosing to shop local an easy choice. Staff helped load the instrument into our truck. If we encounter any issues it is also nice to know this store is an authorized Yamaha dealer/service center.

Review №32

I was looking for an inexpensive acoustic guitar (been playing for 15 years but got rid of all my guitars during a move). The shop guy showed me what they had in my budget, and I ended up leaving with a new guitar. Extremely good setup job included which could easily cost another 50 bucks or more on top of the guitar. They obviously take a lot of care to make sure everything is playable when you take it home.Also they have some really cool old banjos.

I like these guys.They rebuilt my 1973 Twin Reverb, and refreshed my 69 Les Paul Custom. Did a wonderful job.I like to get my picks, strings, and whatever there to help support the local shop.Had my mandolin strings, finger picks, and spare guitar strings.Friendly, cheery, good conversation.

Cant understand why anyone would hand these guys anything less than 5 stars. I took lessons here for years and that knowledge has been irreplaceable. Theyve given me the best best answers and advice on every purchase Ive ever made there, never regretted a single purchase. Their repair work is outstanding and fairly priced as well. They will always be my number 1 choice!

Way cool music store with a tasteful offer of some really great guitars. Grestch and Fender are the focus and they have some great ones. Super friendly staff willing to share their knowledge.... You owe yourself a visit.

Review №41

Fantastic Customer Service and the two owners really know what they are talking about and doing - guitar and other set-ups, repair, and instruments that require extensive repairs to simple tune ups. Best and friendliest music shop Ive ever been to. Guitar Center eats their dust. Also, they sell more than guitars, custom guitars, and modifications to your guitar. Mandolins, Banjos, ukeleles, Brass & Woodwinds, accessories, and a lot of other.

Review №43

It can be intimidating trying out a new guitar in a building full of great guitarists, but they’ve always been helpful and encouraging. They don’t carry hundreds of guitars, but they do carry a variety of price points and each guitar is set up well. Stop by and give them a try before ordering online!

Review №44

I brought Larry a guitar that had been custom made for me a few years back. Although the tone was beautiful, it never played the way I knew it could, and the pickup the builder had installed was unbalanced in its sound. I am a Canadian, and It felt more than a bit odd leaving my guitar in a different country for an unknown period of time, but something about the shop and Larry felt right. Two weeks later I picked up my guitar - it was more than I could have hoped for. Larry had built a new bone saddle to bring the pickup to life, and adjusted the action as if he knew exactly how I played. I will happily endure the five hour round trip to have Larry work on all my guitars. Thank you. Dave, in Cranbrook

Review №45

The interaction I had with the guy behind the counter went from normal to awkward/ rude friend and I were looking at a guitars and taking turn playing it. He clearly got tired of us and sic effusively pushed us out of the store. We are both reasonable people if he wanted to to stop or leave he could of asked and we would of understood. Instead as a said we revived a treatment that was both awkward and ride.

Review №46

Knowledge base and expertise is off the charts and customer service 2nd to none. George came out to a remote wedding site and bailed me out with some gear issues on a Saturday! Awesome guys, local experts who really care about what they do and are personally invested in their business.

Review №47

A friendly helpful staff. I went in the first day and was home with quite a variety of equipment that I was looking. The store worker was patient with me and let me take my time to look around. I stop by the next day Because I forgot a couple of items and the same treatment. Cant say negative about this shop...

Shop owners are extremely nice, helpful, and welcoming. You have questions about a product. No only will they answer your questions but they let you get hands on and walk you through. Prices are great. I will always recommend them.

Review №50

They taught me how to play the guitar and with in a few months i was able to give up on lessons and begin learning on my own. it was allot of fin learning and he was very amusing. i was very impressed by how well he played and he taught me the pentatonic scale. at first i was learning on an acoustic but he let me play one of the electric guitars there before i ever got my first electric, i was so exited, i wanted to use distortion so bad, and as soon as i plucked a string i just had to freak out, so i spent a good 5 minutes smiling with the guitar in my hands

Review №51

All the employees are very knowledge and helpful. George will tell you anything you need to know about percussion. Although if you have been playing drums and actively trying new equipment for many years, this store will likely not have something you havent already tried or heard. They never have any high end cymbals, drum shells or hardware. Their Cajons are very cheap. A lot of the times they are out of the drum heads I need

Review №53

I stopped by after buying a used electric guitar on Craigslist (sometimes you dont know what youre getting). George was the one who helped me. He put down what he was doing and helped me right away. After telling him what I thought my needs were, he did not more than 5 minutes of testing on my guitar and told me no work needed to be done. This was GREAT! Ill definitely come back if I need anything else.

I went to get a ukelele as my second string and the people were very helpful in trying to find one that was just right for me. i would recommend people coming here for their first second or third instrument.

Review №58

Music One Workshop is pretty much the only music store that sits in downtown Kalispell although I think theres a newer music shop in Evergreen its been around for a long time and they sell a variety of instruments and music the staff there seems very knowledgeable about various things but I feel like because there a local company in downtown Kalispell theyre fighting to keep an edge on the market while still covering their costs its difficult for me sometimes to feel like Im not being pressured either to buy something or weather things are a little overpriced due to this dynamic. It also makes me feel like buying things online more often

Review №59

Twenty five years ago I got lessons from George Jr.The biggest ego and worst teacher ever!I have since diverted over 120,000$ of business directly to online services away from Music One. 10 states and despite his arrogance Ive succeeded in the face of showboat look at my brand new ESP George.

While I have been living in Whitefish, I like to support local music stores. I have been in three times inquiring about a book (and trying to save it), over the past two months, and they never have it when I return. Sadly, decided to go through Amazon this time. Guys, please take care with your sheet music and encourage people to buy in store.

Ive known Larry and George for over 30 years and they are not only experts in the field of music and gear but their also good upstanding people. Dont be surprised by straight-up cut through the bs answers to your questions...you want fluff, go to the other guys. You want honesty and integrity, go to Music One! I bought my gear there when I lived in Kalispell and I will continue to buy my gear there even though I now live in Texas!
