Mid Rivers Music Instruments

The first thing that drew me to the store was the van sitting in front of the store of Mid Rivers Music. My wife and I have been talking about getting a mini-​van. We only had $ 250 at the time and about a half of carton of smokes left and I saw there was a sign on the van. Being that it was a piece of junk I turned the car around and thought it was for sale. I stopped to take a look at it. It was junkier than I thought it would be and it wasn’t worth the $ 250 I had. Well after taking another look at it I thought I should rather hold on to my money because it wasn’t for sale anyways… other than the fact it looks like a blue piece of junk. The van said Mid Rivers Music on it. I thought in my head this store has got to be nicer than the van parked out front. I decided to walk in to the store and check out their collection. I saw a bunch of no-​name guitars on the wall and I saw the owner and he introduced himself. He had a used-​car salesman/​creeper feel to him. He said“hi welcome to Mid Rivers Music” in a raspy tone. I asked «Do you have any Fender Strats for sale?» He then replied «What you see is what you get buddy. now what do you want?» I was instantly turned off by the place. I won’t ever go back. If I could give no stars I would do that. The van, the owner, and the guitars were all equally terrible… I take that back the owner was the worst

This place surprises me every time I go in. I’ve found several things there that I have had trouble finding online or at other shops.
I couldn’t find the right jack for an inexpensive amp I was working on, they had it. I was looking for felt picks, they had them. I needed a vintage guitar rewired, they did it and it sounded amazing. I needed a screw to hold down a pickup, they gave me one!
If you live around this area, do yourself a favor and stop in. You may think, «oh they aren’t going to have that» and well, they might not, but go in anyway and look. Or call them and ask!
Don’t forget to go their «dog pound» clearance area! They have some cheap stuff! Guitar cords, sheet music, old band instruments, etc.
They have been friendly every time and have always treated me well. I’m glad they are here, go visit them!

Great music store. My children and I have been taking lessons here for two years now. Really friendly, knowledgeable sales staff and wonderful, wonderful music teachers. Look no further!!!
