Wow! They have lots of product! In a good way! I am not a musician, I was just doing a Return for some guitar hooks, but I was inspired to start playing! Such a cool store even to just pop in and get inspired! They also offer classes.
I had a great experience with Strait Music. I needed handbell repairs, and Chap Torian went above and beyond, even though Strait Music doesn’t offer handbell repairs themselves. He helped me find a repair shop, arranged the shipping, and had the bells returned to Strait Music in record time. Thank you for the excellent service!
