It's a shame! We rented my daughter's violin for four years with this company.when we finally bought her violin, they said she couldn't keep the same one she's had for years, and she's familiar with. So ok fine, they ordered another one. When we finally got it, it was incomplete. It did not have fine tuners. I asked them to provide us with the fine tuners so my daughter could play it. Austin at the counter said I had to buy those separately.
I said " you're selling me an incompkein item" and he said " unfortunately that's the way they come" I asked to speak to the owner. Austin said the only way to reach the manager is via email. I said "no please give me his phone number", and he refused saying he did not have a direct phone number to the owner.shaddy people!

Expensive and not knowledgeable. Had issues from day one. Go to Brindleys. Less expensive and way more knowledgeable staff. Plus they operate on regular business hours.

We have been renting our son's instrument from Blackbird and it's been a great experience. His first trumpet developed a significant issue with the valves sticking and they replaced his instruments no questions asked. The employees are polite and knowledgeable, and work well with kids. We are very happy with Blackbird and plan on having or daughter start violin lessons with them soon! :

My daughter takes violin lessons at the location in Queen Creek (Power and Chandler Heights) and we couldn't be happier. The staff is always polite, smiling and ready to engage in witty conversation with both myself and my daughter! She had a not-so great teacher who was with the studio for just a short time before we switched to the wonderful Holly! Blackbird acknowledged the poor teacher, and made it up to us in more ways than one. We are new to the area and so grateful that we found Blackbird and Holly and highly recommend them for all your musical needs.
