I brought 2 older cassette deck and a Kenwood Receiver in for repair. Carlo knocked it out of the park with getting them back to their original condition, and the service was very reasonably priced. I would bring any future stereo equipment here for repair from now on. I also picked up some great records while I was there. Its a great shop!
Brought in an old Gibson for some wiring work and ended up getting a setup as well. Only cost 80 bucks for an amount of work that radically improved how the guitar sounds and feels. Quick turn around too, only took about a week.
We had an old record player collecting dust in our basement for years and finally brought it in for a stylus replacement and overall “check up” to see if it was in working condition (we know nothing about them or where to even begin). So pleased with the service here - a very quick and easy drop off/pick up process. They even cleaned up the record player and replaced the feet which was way more than I was expecting and shows the level of care they put into their work. So excited to finally start using our record player thanks to Common Beat!!
I have taken a total of three guitars to these guys for setups and they always come back perfect. I cant rave about them enough. Quick too.
Quant, knowledgeable and unassuming. Which I expect what most record stores goers desire.
Sweet store with a nice vibe. Like the old stores that sells sticks picks strings and straps. They even sell and repair audio gear, guitars and amps. I always find a few LPs to buy. Good prices.
Great vinyl selection, fairly priced and graded. Also very fair on trade ins. Ill definitely be back.
Amazing selection! You wont be disappointed stopping in this neighborhood gem that offers amazing quality records AND extremely hard to come by equipment repair ... love common beat !
Nice dude, great shop, good COVID protocols. Check out the inventory online to reduce time spent face to face. Great neighborhood. Grab a juice at Hibiscus Cafe after you shop.
Did a fantastic job fixing my old turntable!
Ive been looking for a needle for a 60s entertainment center for two years. I called this place and they were the first place to be nice enough to take the time to help me replace it. Im happy as hell I went to their shop 👍
I went to get my record player fixed and it works like new! Didnt even take 24 hours
Amazing hidden gem! Support local business!
I loved the place and the staff were really nice. Good music selections and equipment.
Great people great music
Great place, great people
I took my Sheraton in for work on the neck, fret adjustment and basic set-up. I am very pleased with the results. Looks great. Feels great. Sounds great. The service charge was very fair --Ive been charged more for less. I would absolutely recommend this place, and will absolutely return.
Carlo and Keri are both wonderful people. Their collection carries a wide range of genres and they have a really adorable cat!
I bring my guitars here for setups and they have always come back flawless. Super speedy and consistently cheap. I have major trust in the people here working on the instruments. The music and audio knowledge here is priceless.
I recently had my Grandparents old record player serviced by Carlo. He did an amazing job and the record player sounds great. I couldnt believe the difference in sound before and after he worked on the player. Thanks Carlo!
Did something that I couldnt do
Took my 2 Technics 1200 M3D turntables in for new RCA cabling, and internal grounding. Its been a year and a half since, and my tables still sound amazing. I received my tables back in about 2 weeks after dropping them off. The price was fair, and completely worth it.
Need more places like this
They have good selection of vinyls. No complaints
Good selection of new and used records as well as CDs, cassettes, and audio equipment. They also do repairs. Good prices, good service, and a cute cat. Highly recommend.
A few guitars with records...new & used. Pretty decent selection ranging from pink to soul and a good chunk of jazz. Pretty fair prices. Unfortunately they were closing and will have to return. Any shop that sticks Flippers Generic Album is ok by me.
As you know, I grew up with record shops around me, the new owner is very pleasant and he has a turntable repair station and he sells vintage turntables as well, he has a diverse amount of music in the store, I wish Common Beat Music Longevity Success and Customers Galore 💖.
My partner and I entered the shop and immediately felt unwelcome at the location. None of the store associates said hello when we came in. After browsing for 20 minutes someone finally asked if they could help us with something and it felt like we were being rushed out the store. Its a shame because there is a unique quality to the store with its records and all. That being said... youve got to treat people right.
I went inside for the 1st time yesterday... Amazing! I love this place & am Im fighting not to go back in today 😆 ps: fluffiest puffiest friendliest cat ever lol
Great selection of gear, accessories and records. Wonderful staff.
Great to see the spot revitalized! Lots of helpful gear and repair services here now. Its great.
Great job on my Technics 1200 turntable very affordable. Professional service I would recommend them again and again.
One of the best spots for me to dig for vinyl and music I never heard of.
Friendly service, Carlos does a great job on repairs and set ups. Great prices, good selection of records, and cute cat!
Interesting spot, not the most friendly atmosphere but what record shop is. Enjoy a decent selection and good music that they play.
Its right around my house if I need new strings or any of my instruments fixed or buy a few used records.Funny how I found one of my old band records there from like 20 yrs ago.
A great place - the only place I take my gear to get fixed. Carlo is a wizard!
Awesome spot! thanks yall.
I was strapped for time, so I figured Id try this local spot for a guitar setup and to get a pedal repaired. They did a piss poor job on both. Guitar was actually in worse shape than when I brought it in (it was out of tune and not even intonated!) The pedal was also still problematic when I plugged it in at home. Go elsewhere for setups and repairs.
Great old school vinyl records!!
Old school
Food was good and the place is unique
Not a great collection, staff is unfriendly
