Live Music Center

I called to make a trial violin lesson for my daughter. I first spoke to Chris who began taking information for her to take the lesson. He said he needed to call back while he filled some information out, because it would take a while. I thought that was interesting, since I had given him all my information over the phone and he put it in. When I got a call back it was another person, Robert.

He proceeded to tell me that maybe Chris didn't give me all the information. That there is a registration fee, I asked if this was even for an trial, being that we are not committing yet to becoming a student, rather seeing if the instructor would be a good fit. He said yes. I find this odd, I have never been to a place where you pay a registration fee before you become a member.

I feel like it was a way to insure extra money. Really tacky. I decided not to go with them, because of this. Not that 20 dollars will break me, but I feel it lacks ethics, and makes me question the way we would be treated in the future. Too bad they lost a possible regularly paying customer, and that registration fee. I would have gladly paid it once we became a fully committed student, not a person taking a trial lesson.

I would also like to add that I was going to pay for the lesson. It was not a free lesson or anything. Plus they were going to take payment over the phone, which I was going to do. Not even wait for lesson day, lol!

My son did lessons there and every time he'd come home he would talk about his teacher Chris and all the similar intrests they had. He would also come home playing tons of new songs and chords! Give that man a raise.

Every staff member is so extremely nice and such a pleasure to talk with! i'm taking guitar lessons with chris, and i really enjoy talking with him and his company as much as i do taking his music lessons! he's very patient and encouraging : as a total beginner at the guitar, i've already learned a lot!

Terrible customer service from a guy named Chris. May very well be the most insecure musician I've ever met. Fast track him to Julliard before he implodes. I mean this guy had a vein popping out his neck ready for any little thing he could correct me on. Been playing for 16 years. but this guy chris?, he was clearly God's gift to earth and all musicians LOL. I think he was trying to impress my WIFE lol. When we left we both had a good laugh about Chris

My kids, 10 and 16, have learned so much from Megan Tucker over their years of lessons with her. She is so knowledgable and really makes lessons fun for the kids. You know that she really cares about your children which means so much! I always recommend this studio to all my friends who are considering lessons for themselves or their children. We LOVE Live Music Studio!

Nice place to get instruments and clases to learn how to play them. I like and recomend this place.

My son takes guitar lessons with Chris. Learned so much in a short period of time. Now he is working in the Jr Rock Band. So much fun watching and listening to my son grow in music. Megan is awesome. Thank you Live Music Center

My little one has been coming here for piano lessons with Tori for a few years. She enjoys the lessons and Tori is a great teacher. The staff is always friendly. Taylor is great too. There is also a nice selection of musical equipment and very reasonable prices.

This place has super-friendly and sincere people. Darren was very helpful with setting me up to get my guitar restrung, and Megan was very kind in calling me back when I had left my debit card there by mistake. I am looking forward to coming here more often! Thank you guys so much!

My kids have taken lessons elsewhere in the past with teachers and methods they didn't love, and therefore they didn't love playing and learning musi. We've been coming to Live Music for about 4 years now and they love it. They are eager to learn and try new things musically on their own. The teachers meet the students where they are. They aren't rigid in teaching one way or one style of music, but start with what interests their students.

For my kids that's meant not battling them to practice and they have still learned so much about music theory and playing. I recommend Live Music to any of my friends looking for music lessons.

This Place Rocks! Their staff of amazingly talented instructors are all above and beyond awesome! Live Music Center has an excellent impact on the Vacaville community as a whole.

Great first experience. I would definitely recommend this place. I had no idea what I was doing and decided on a whim to purchase a guitar for my husband's birthday. The woman on the phone took what little information I had and gave me the perfect recommendation immediately, as it turns out. When I arrived I was greeted warmly and walked through my purchase in a way that did not make me feel bad for being clueless which was fantastic. Employees were helpful, knowledgeable, comfortable, and good humored. Please support this business. They have a lot to offer. If I was staying in the area I would definitely pursue their instrument rentals and lesson offerings.

I turned my son's instrument in for repairs 3 1/2 weeks ago and was told it wouldn't be more than 3 weeks (which is already along time to wait). They hadn't called me yet so I placed a call to them only to find out that it's still not repaired and can't give me a time that it will be done. Instead they referred me to a repair shop in Woodland (which is a couple of towns over and out of my way) if I wanted it repaired faster. Why make me wait for 3 1/2 weeks with no phone call to follow up and tell me what's going on? I will never take another instrument to this place for repair.

My grandchildren have taken lessons at the Live Music Center on Alamo Drive, with wonderful experiences. From the courteous staff to the excellent teachers, it has been a pleasure doing business with the Center. My musicians are now in their respective school bands.

The staff at Live Music Center always greet you with relaxed enthusiasm. For years I wanted to learn to play the violin. Finally for Christmas last year I bought a violin and started taking lessons. They took the time to discuss the various violins they had, the differences between them, and how they relate to my musical experiences and asperations, to make sure I could make an informed decision. Bryn makes my lessons fun.

He is passionate, patient and a wealth of knowledge. I am learning more about music theory now then I ever did in all my years of piano lessons as a child. He also does a great job of catering my lessons to the music style I am interested in. Thank you Bryn and the staff of Live Music Center who embrace my new passion and make learning a new instrument exciting, interesting, and fun.

I come in here all the time for reeds. Today I was looking for something they didn't have, which was a fluke. They let me know where I could go to get it. Very much appreciated. Thank you for taking care of your customers!

The people and the programs at LMC are truly amazing. My daughter began with vocal and guitar lessons at age 10, and has progressed on to their youth Rock Sessions, where she has formed extremely close bonds with great kids and absolutely loves performing as a band. I don't think you could find a better music experience! Megan is an awesome instructor and is so great with kids of all ages. Watching the teen rock bands perform is so much fun and such a special experience. We love LMC!

The staff and commitment to customer service are what sets Live Music apart IMO. They're super knowledgeable and willing to spend the time with you to help pick out the right instrument for you. I've nothing but excellent interactions with the staff members I have spoken with, and from what I hear they are some excellent teachers as well. Highly recommended.

First time patron today, a wonderful store with a friendly staff.

I went to the music center to purchase an instrument for my daughter. There was a lot to choose from and I found a clarinet at literally 1/4 the price of another store in Fairfield. On top of that, they gave me a military discount. Thank you! There is a sitting area with some coloring pages and games for kids who are waiting.which was extremely helpful considering I have little ones with curious hands! The girl at the checkout was very sweet and helpful. I would definitely check this place out before considering others.

I come in here all the time, chat with people in here, and act goofy. The people here are knowledgeable and yet still chill and relaxed. They let me play my instruments in the back whenever I want to. Plus, they hired me to work as a piano and cello teacher, so I'm looking forward to being part of the staff in January. Yay!

Yesterday, we went into the store because my 10 year old daughter wanted to try out a few instruments. The staff was amazing. They were friendly, knowledgeable and they worked extremely well as a team. The selection was fantastic, they had so many options. They were organized and despite being super busy, they handled it efficiently and perfectly. It was fun, quick and an easy process. I highly recommend The Music Center!

Our son has been studying violin with Bryn for almost 3 years. Our son really enjoys the lessons and looks forward to seeing Bryn every week. We have purchased music books, violin supplies, and have had instruments re-strung at the store. I highly recommend the store for lessons and music supplies.

The best place to go if you're just starting playing music or have been for your whole lifetime, or even if you're just simply a fellow lover of music. They have everything from instruments, lessons, books, etc. (Price) Their prices are very reasonable and they do buy back depending on the condition, what the item is, etc. (Service) Their service have always been 5 stars, nothing bad comes to mind at all.
