Boogie Music

I stopped here on a whim after being so disappointed at what Guitar Center and Sam Ash had to offer as far as Travel Guitars are concerned. I was surprised to see Frank working at Boogie as I remembered him from NoteWorks on 16^th & Bell all those years ago. He’s a nice, knowledgable guy and very easy to talk with. I found the perfect Travel Guitar there. Taylor Gs Mini. The guitar had very nice action right off the wall and they had a tech there (wish I could remember his name) who tweaked it just right while I was there. The price of this Taylor was actually about about $ 30 cheaper than anything online or at the big stores and they included a nice humidifier. Guitar plays perfect. I love it! They have all kinds of cool guitars and amps all over the place! Don’t let the look of the place from the street fool you. this is a first rate Music Store and I wish we had more of them here in AZ.

Go Local! That’s what I’m talking about. My family is renting an instrument, and it’s great service! They are polite and knowledgeable. Well established. Check it out. When the rental needed repair it was no fuss and fixed quickly (within a week).

I brought in some of my used equipment to trade in for a brand new acoustic guitar. I got a fair deal out of some old soldiers that I haven’t paid much attention to. Great vibe in the store. The staff was more than helpful and very nice, which is something you don’t always get in a music store. Great local business well worth checking out. I’ll be going back for any of my musical needs for sure. I absolutely love my new guitar too!

My last stop after Guitar Center and Sam Ash. Why didn’t I come here first? The guy here (and I’m sorry I don’t recall his name) was great! Friendly, helpful and gave me a lot of helpful information. Even though I am having to order the banjo that I ultimately decided on, I will definitely bring it here for a professional set-​up. I plan to take lessons here. Weekly 30 min lessons are only 90 buck/​month. That’s a deal! I will also buy all of my supplies, strings, pics, etc. from here. GREAT EXPERIENCE!

I’ve brought in two banjos for a full setup and compared to a big place like guitar center or Sam Ash, they definitely know their stuff! Just recently I bought a Deering Goodtime from a pawn shop. It looked like it was in great condition but sounded pretty bad. I thought it needed more than a set of strings so I brought it in so they could take a look. They ended up having to remove the neck, realign and reattach, plus ended up sanding the edges of the frets and did all of it for an extremely reasonable price. It sounds amazing now! I also go there for lessons and it’s a great experience. I definitely recommend Boogie Music for a banjo player!

These guys are great. They know their stuff and will match prices with the big dealers. They’ll also honor sales and coupons. Why buy from corporate idiots when you can support local mom and pop stores like this They also do great set ups. I recently bought bad bass from the shop and they matched the price and honored a $ 100 off coupon from The Dark Side. Highly recommended.

My son takes drum lessons here and we buy all his equipment here. The staff are friendly and helpful. We have had nothing but positive experiences here so far.

This review is lonnnng overdue…
My family, friends and I have been shopping at boogie music for years. From my snare drum rental close to 10 years ago to my last pair of drum sticks I purchased a week ago, boogie music has been great.
The owner is usually there and has always came by himself to say hi or ask if i needed help. I was happy to see them at an outside event as well. i got to spin their prize wheel and won a $ 50 gift card! They are very generous with giving back to their customers, matching competitors prices always and just overall providing great service.
Their pricing is usually always less than the competition even though they are a smaller «local» type shop. Great selection. Everything you could need. And if something additional is wanted, ask them — they’ll be happy to accommodate your needs.
Keep up the great work

BEWARE! BEWARE!
My daughter wanted a clarinet to rent for band in school. My in laws recommended boogie music so I gave them a call regarding the procedure to rent a instrument, over the phone they said they do not do credit checks witch was great because IM in the market of purchasing a home and did not want any inquires on my credit so I took a drive up there with my Kids after speaking with a store rep they said they would need my S.S. # I told him I would prefer not to provide that info, the rep said we do not run credit checks its just for collections while the owner of the store was standing there he said he dose run credit checks on certain people and he would need my S.S. # to do so or he would not rent to me and that hes not going to let me walk out paying twenty dollars for the rental and keeping a 500. hundred dollar instrument. insinuating as if I was planing on steeling because I did not want a credit check like they advertise on there website. My 8 year old was upset so I walked out ripping up the contract! Someone this shady just to randomly judge people do not deserve my business. Please treat everyone the same and go by the polices that you advertise!

Great prices, staff was friendly, and when I needed to make an exchange for an item that was a few cents more there was no hassle of having to pay the difference.

I didn’t think to write a review of Boogie Music until very recently, but figured better late than never. As a band geek for many, many years, this was a favorite place to go for all my band geek necessities. They always had what I needed, and they knew their shit.
(A short history of my musical past: picked the alto sax as «my» instrument in 4^th grade, was in all sorts of bands up until my freshman year in college, and after that kind of put it aside for a long time until recently.)
It wasn’t until about a year ago, that I actually needed to visit their store again. I was attempting to get back into playing my sax, but noticed that the pads on the keys had deteriorated. Age and the dry Phoenix climate had pretty much wrecked the leather. So, I was in need of getting them replaced. I shopped around, asking different music stores if they could do the repair and how much it would cost. (I knew it could end up costing a few hundred dollars.)
In the end, Boogie got my business. I knew they’d be reliable and honest. And, I was right. I brought my sax in, and the person I spoke to looked at my sax and pointed out the problem pads. He didn’t try to pressure me into getting all the pads replaced, but was respectful with my decision to just get the necessary ones replaced. He explained to me what they would do and answered any questions I had. The price was really reasonable, and they had it ready for me within a week.
What’s even better is they are a full-​service music store. They’ve got it all and more! Guitars, amps, drums, band instruments, keyboards, DJ and sound equipment, sheet music, music lessons, and even the ability to rent equipment for big events.
If you are ever in any need of anything music-​related, definitely check out Boogie music.
