Very cool shop! So many musical instruments. The variety is amazing. Most if not all seemed to have some history, which in my opinion adds to the beauty of the piece. It is tightly packed. Not very much room to move around in, which is fine. There is a museum like vibe as you walk through the tight quarters. I mean that in a good way. The staff was Warm and willing to take any questions I had. The lighting definitely could be improved, but with all of the instruments hanging from the ceiling, I think they were doing the best they could. It's one of those places you have to visit a second time.

I haven't played in a long time, and when I did play, I didn't get very far. Needless to say, I didn't have much experience, or any with electric guitars. Beach helped me get set up and playing by taking their time and going out of their way to help me. Extremely helpful, friendly service. Great location and probably worth a bit of an extra drive if you aren't close. This is definitely my go to spot for anything guitar related.

Wishing I could leave 100 stars. These guys are amazing. I truly had a terrible day and week but these guys turned that around with only 5 minutes of their kindness. My son and I rode our bikes over to get my guitar string fixed and I was prepared to leave it for however long was needed and pay whatever they asked. They asked me for my guitar and asked me to wait 5 min, he comes back with my string fixed and insisted on not charging me. They truly care about their customers and know that the little things pay off, I will forever be a customer just for this simple gesture. See you all soon and thanks again!

Words cannot describe how thankful I am to have brought my guitar in for repairs. Billy nailed it and had my guitar ready for me the next day! He also educated me on guitars and showed me some of his really cool vintage guitars and it made me feel so confident in him working on my old guitar from the 60s. This is definitely the coolest guitar shop I've been to and I plan to come again. Billy thank you so so much for flawless customer service and knowing about guitars we need more experts like you!!!

One of my guitar strings broke and I searched Yelp and found this store which had five star reviews. They really deserve it! The store owner Billy is very friendly and replaced the string for free! I feel lucky that I found this store and I highly recommend it to everyone!

This is the place to be for your music needs! Billy has helped us get amps, guitars, a bass, and even a keyboard! It's a small (yet expanding) shop that is FULL of character and endless knowledge, we could quite literally spend hours here haha! The prices are great and the quality is unbeatable, thanks Beach Music!

I've known Billie for about 5 years and he gets all my music business now. I've been through almost everybody in So Cal searching for a luthier worth the name. I finally found the Wizard. He is so experienced that I can't even imagine a better guitar tech. I have never asked Billie for an estimate !!! I don't need to. I just ask if he would PLEASE do his thing. I've been working on guitars, mandolins, banjos, tiples, tube amps, and everything related for decades. I thought I was pretty good. But Billie is so far beyond anyone I've met, I wouldn't even consider working on my own now. I'd drive miles to get him to work on my gear; and just to say hello. He's in Sunset Beach and there is no better place to kill a bunch of hours; bring your lady for lunch. If you get lucky, Billie may pull down a bass and start cranking out some of the most awesome bass runs ever. This guy is a Musicologist par excellence. I love the tone he gets. But the best is saved for last. Billie is one hell of a human being. He's got a big heart that shines bright; like a light that illuminates all around it. I count myself as lucky that I have been able to share a few moments with Billie. I have searched almost my entire life for people to know that are truly different, that are something special. Billie is one ! It's obvious that others think the same. Has anyone ever seen "nothing but 5 star reviews" ??????? bob :)
