Yelp.com Review - by Andrew C.

4.0 of 5 stars. No one's reviewed this place yet? Wow. I suppose it's easy to miss this place as you race by it on the MAX. (I missed it for a year!) Get off at SW 1st and Oak and check it out! The store is divided up…

Incredible customer service!

Joel helped me with technical issues on a product I did not even buy at Apple Row. I went into the store no less than three times, and each and every time, he went far above and beyond to provide support!!!!...

The worst Music store in all of Portland

Wow ... by far the worst music retail experience in my entire life! If you buy something and you need to return it for some reason, don't waste your time because you wont get your money back. Do not buy high...

I'm not as enchanted

Um...you forgot to mention rude sales staff and overpriced on almost everything. Then there's the fact that Trade Up Music has two Portland locations...and there's even Guitar Center...and Old Town. Sure, Apple is big. But my five experiences there have been negative. Just to be detailed, I was promised a ride cymbal at the marked discount price and told to come back the next day when their used/trade staff was on hand. When I arrived to get the cymbal, I was told "Oh, whoever made this deal with you yesterday was wrong...the cymbal is really priced at XXX dollars. We can't help you." That was such a cool experience! Thanks.

It just has bad business ethics, and uneducated employees.

I had a couple thousand to burn and wanted to try a Laiho ESP. The sales person actually had the nerve to ask to see the cash upfront before he would take it off the wall! Who the hell carries a thousand large...

Buyer Beware

This store epitomizes tired old fashion high pressure salesperson cliche, these guys are out to glean as much as possible and will say anything to close a transaction. Unfortunately online competition as well...

The worst music store in Portland for over two decades

I'm a native Oregonian musician, and I've shopped at just about every music store within a 25 mile radius of downtown. Apple music is, and always has been the very worst place to shop in terms of customer...

Only the greatest most helpful music store in Oregon.

I buy ALL of my gear at Apple Music and have never had even average customer service. The people are always really helpful and quite funny. Not to mention its a local portland buisness, guitar center is like a...

Poor customer service doesn't even describe it. Null is a better word.

I don't think I ask for too much when it comes to the retail experience. I want good selection, the ability to try new stuff out, for people to facilitate it when I want to buy stuff and for staff members to...

They go out of their way to be difficult

I bought my son a limited edition Epiphone Wildcat at Apple Music. They were friendly when I was buying something. On vacation, we had to gate check the guitar on the airplane, and Delta broke it. We took it...

$10.- for a used cardboard box? Not even in Brooklyn! Shame on You!

I needed a shipping carton for an acoustic guitar, and was told by "James" on the phone that I could come down and see whether he might have one. I politely let him know that I lived 35 miles away, so could he...

We had a totally different experience than the other reviewer, in the acoustic guitar store. We got spot-on, honest advice with a hands-off approach while shopping. We also listened as he helped other people,...

How not to run a guitar store

Apple music is a prime example of how not to run a guitar store. First off theire prices are too high. Almost everything is at list prices. Second, and even worse is their management and employees. If you're...
