Old Town School Music Store — Local services in Lake View Township

Recently I had a very poor experience ordering online from these folks.

They did not want to honor their own store policies once the guitar had shipped and I had been billed.

After exhausting my patience and goodwill with the shops e-commerce manger’s obfuscating the simple issue and deflecting responsibility and simply refusing to cooperate with me, I was forced to involve both my bank and the MN State Attorney General's office.

I went to the Old Town School of Folk Music to register for guitar lessons. Did I mention that the most I know about guitars is how to spell guitar? The staff at registration was very kind and knowledgeable. They read every instructor's bio to me and help me select the instructor I thought would be the best fit for me, at the best time for me. And the guys who work in the store were very friendly and helpful and answer all of my many questions. I ended up buying a digital guitar tuner and several picks. I love this place. Can't wait for classes to begin. I'll be happy if I can learn to play Happy Birthday and Heart of the Matter. I'm a simple person, with simple goals.

Let they help you start your...

This music store is located within the old town school of folk music. Actually the school has two locations that are directly across Lincoln Street from each other. This music store features both new and used string instruments and many unique Products and music relating to folk music. Over the years I have come to appreciate the employees who are not only product knowledgeable but are accomplished musicians in their own areas. I'm often inspired to try something new. The school is known for both classes and performances. There are letters and memorabilia lining the walls of the new building. And don't let the "Folk Music" name turn you off before you try it.
