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!

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Strait Music in Austin, and I can confidently say this store deserves every bit of its stellar reputation. From the moment I walked in, I was warmly greeted by the friendly staff, who made me feel right at home. Their welcoming attitude set the tone for an excellent experience. The selection at Strait Music is nothing short of impressive. Whether you're a seasoned musician or just starting, they have something for everyone. The variety of guitars alone is remarkable, but they also cater to other instruments, accessories, and musical needs. It's clear they take pride in curating a diverse and high-quality inventory. What sets Strait Music apart is their dedication to fostering musical growth. They offer classes, which is a fantastic resource for anyone looking to improve their skills or start their musical journey. The staff is knowledgeable and genuinely enthusiastic about helping customers find what they need. As a testament to their professionalism, they even provided me with a business card for future purchases—a small but thoughtful gesture that highlights their commitment to customer service. Strait Music is a gem in Austin, combining a great atmosphere, excellent selection, and a team that truly cares. If you're in the market for instruments or musical advice, this is the place to go. Five stars, without a doubt!
