I had an odd experience in here. I'm obviously in my 50s, with more than a little gray hair. I walked in a few months back to check on the used LPs, of which they have more than a few, and on the CDs in the metal section. I may be oldish, but my musical preferences run to the modern, some of them bordering on the Satanic and definitely in the range of metallic and extremely heavy. Anyway, while I was scoping out the discs, each of the two ladies working there would come by separately to check on me every two or three minutes, asking me how I was doing and if I needed anything. After a while, I started to feel like a teen-aged boy who was being watched to make sure he wasn't shoplifting! In spite of this strange behavior, I ended up buying a couple of discs from the metal section and an LP that was in pretty good shape. It was just weird. I don't know, maybe they thought I was an undercover cop who was scoping out the teenagers buying bongs. Frankly, I don't care what people do in the privacy of their own homes, as long as they're not hurting anyone other than themselves. Like I said, it was weird. I was thinking about taking guitar lessons, but now, I don't know if I want to do...
Read moreI don't own a car and live on the east side of town by Albertsons. I walk down to 5js to get my tobacco and smoking accessories. After asking the other smoke shop in town if they would order the tobacco I like, and getting several "sure, we should have it next week " answers, I went to 5js. At the time, they didn't carry tobacco at all, but after asking if they would order the same type I was trying to get the other shop to order, the answer was the same. The difference was they took my name and number. I ended up (mistakenly) blowing them off, figuring I'm getting the same run around. I ordered online and received it about 2 weeks later. Anyway, 2 days after I placed my order, I get a phone call, from a very curtious 5js staff member, informing me that my tobacco was in. He got the correct kind the first time. He orders it regularly, and I buy it from him exclusively, and other stuff as well, even though online was cheaper. I don't even ask him anymore. They are amazing. They earned a customer...
Read moreAs a professional musician in a small town, there's nothing more important to me than reliability and professionalism when it comes to the care of my instruments. For a number of years, I took my instruments to Salt Lake City or Reno to have them serviced, until the last year when I met Daniel. Daniel, the newest tech at 5J, is an absolute professional in every sense of the word. He knows his stuff, knows how to apply it, and knows, most importantly, how to diagnose and fix problems that otherwise make no sense to me. The staff are always helpful and friendly, and it feels like a family every time I come down. I've never once been price gouged, and always know that if I were to have an issue for some reason with a service provided, 5J would make it right. 5J goes above and beyond for their musician clientele. As a musician, I highly recommend 5J for any kind of...
