Menchey Music Service, Inc. — Local services in Manheim Township

Not the widest selection of guitars but a good selection of acoustic (a few electronic) pianos rather and wind (brass and woodwind) instruments. This is the place for grade school (or college/university level) concert (or marching band) woodwind, brass or percussion instruments. Helpful employees. Unlike others on here I would not compare this place to Guitar Center. Guitar Center overall has a much wider selection of stage gear and equipment for playing live, popular music as well as a much larger selection of guitars. Occasionally Menchy Music Service might have a nice guitar here and there but in no way can it compare to Guitar Center except in having a wider on site selection of acoustic pianos (Guitar Center has a wide range of quality electronic pianos and keyboards also). Guitar Center also has music teachers available for music instruction for a wide variety of instruments including Disc Jockey or DJ instruction classes). This is more of a conservative musical instrument shop. To finish it off the employees at Guitar Center are just as helpful unlike some other reviews here have said. Two different stores, two different environments. Both stores offer music instruction classes. Menchy Music Service has Wind instrument instruction classes available as well as piano and guitar instruction classes also. They also have instrument repair...

EXCELLENT sheet music selection!!! I went in looking for sheet music arranged for piano, but I saw they had a great selection for a wide variety of instruments as well. As most music shops nowadays seem to carry few (if any) physical books of music, I was thrilled to see shelves full of it at Menchey Music. They offer arrangements from diverse genres and sell books varying in length from one single to a large collection of songs. This discovery made my day when I went in yesterday!

I didn't get to peruse much more of the store in-depth, but I did see the large piano section (not that it's easy to miss) and various other instruments/musician gear that looked great. The two people staffed (ha! Get it?) yesterday evening were very personable and helpful, and clearly highly knowledgeable about music and instruments themselves.

So anyways, maximum thumbs up to Menchey Music! I look forward to my next...

I’m relatively new to the Lancaster area and was in possession of 2 acoustic guitars in need of repair. I googled guitar repair and found Menchey Music. I decided to take one of the guitars in and see how that worked. At the shop, the person I engaged with was very knowledgeable about what I needed done. I also discussed the strange problems (showed her pictures) with my second guitar and was assured that they could fix it. I was told my first guitar would be picked up from their shop on Monday and I would get a call from the repair person that day with an estimate. This all happened perfectly. A few days later I received a call saying my repaired guitar was ready for pickup. I picked it up and it is now Perfect! My next task is to drop off my second guitar...
