We visited WestSide Music Hawaii today looking for a decent ukulele for our granddaughter who has joined an ukulele club at her school in Oregon but is still using a cheap plastic ukulele we bought her years ago.Ron Ravelo, the owner of WestSide Music Hawaii is a pleasant and knowledgeable person when it comes to instruments and he also seems to have the best prices of all the places I called. We bought the beautiful concert size ukulele Ron is holding in the photo. It has a lovely sound and comes with a soft zippered carrying case and a free ukulele tuner. It is also packaged in a strong cardboard box suitable for mailing. My husband bought the exact ukulele from Easy Music Center before it went out of business in Pearl City but he paid almost $30 more for his ukulele. He also didnt get a free tuner or free soft case. As you can see, Rons prices are highly competitive and the customer service he offers is really commendable. Ive never had such a pleasant experience in any music store before so if you want a good deal on an ukulele, guitar, drums, keyboards, etc. stop by and check out Rons selections. You wont be disappointed.
Great place to go. The owner Ron is such a cool guy to speak to. Very knowledgeable in music overall. Thanks Ron!!! 🤙🤙🤙
They had what I needed! Nice little shop tucked away in Waipahu. They do ukulele repairs too 👍🏽
Thanks for selling me that 12-string Jasmine, i was in dire need of a new acoustic but didn’t want to break the bank and now I couldn’t be happier. It’s now my main instrument when I go to write a songDerrick
Dropped off a friend to purchase a guitar
I bought a koa wood ukulele from Ron here and am very happy with it. His knowledge and passion for music is inspiring and the prices are reasonable too. Mahalo, Ron!
I live in Ohio and bought a guitar for my son who lives in Honolulu. Did the whole transaction over the phone. Ron was fantastic! The guitar is great, my son loves it, and Ron made an unusual process easy. Thank you fur your Aloha Ron!
Kewl place. Buy local.
IF YOU SHOULD REQUIRE ANY REPAIRS AT ALL, MAKE THE WISE CHOICE, THE BEST CHOICE, AND GRADE A SERVICE FOR THE ISLAND OF OAH !!
Chill guys, good prices. They dont have a large selection but they do have good quality items. My boyfriend took his guitar in that was totally gutted out and had lots of missing pieces and they fixed it good as new within a week and a half. Great job guys.
The owner’s great, hooked me up with an awesome deal on a used Martin acoustic and threw in some picks and a strap for free. 100% recommend!
The shop has brand new & second hand guitars. Electric & acoustic with & without electronics. Strings, wires other accessories & friendly service. I needed guitar strings & cord for my acoustic guitar. Found what I needed so yes I will go back.
I felt welcome the first step inside...the guys who helped me where friendly and knowledgeable. I will definitely be coming back
Great staff, small, friendly, and a local business. This place offers a variety of instruments. Prices are competitive with the island. Hosts musical session on certain days. Locals musicians come here to get their gear!!! Plus the owner is renowned musician!
Very helpful and knowledgeable owner. Works with you if you have questions about products. Sells you what you need and gives you honest feedback if you dont necessarily need to purchase a piece of gear for what you are trying to accomplish. Will shop here in the future for music gear.
The owner is very friendly and is very knowledgeable when it comes to anything musical. This is the first store I went to look for a brand new guitar and I left with one I enjoyed a lot. I would definitely recommend this store to anyone who wants an instrument or has a question about any instruments. I am very satisfied with my purchase and experience.
Its a winner! knowledgeable staff quality equipment gem of the neighborhood
Bought my ukulele here with no problems. You are able to try out the instruments as much as you want. Visited a couple times before I decided on the best one for me.
Hard to find but there are some treasures in here whether you are a beginner looking for something affordable or a collector looking for that rare vintage item. Owner is a super nice guy.
Ron is the best. Great place for unique old guitars and equipment.
So many things you can find there. Nice variety for music items. Nice staff too
