About a month ago, I carried my intellectually challenged friend to purchase a keyboard, stand and stool that he wanted so badly. We had no idea what we were looking for. The sales associate was amazingly patient with us. As it turned out, it was more than my friend could handle. I called Sam Ash and they said I could return for a refund. I did this yesterday and the return went well. I can't say enough about the customer service from the beginning to the end. Thank you Sam Ashe.

We have made two significant purchases from Sam Ash in Raleigh. The first was a piano for our son back in 2022. He is eleven and has a huge passion for music, starting with the piano. This year for Christmas we purchased a drum set from Sam Ash as well. Both purchases were well worth the money spent but more important for us was the level of customer service and attention to detail. Taylor, the store manager, was involved in both of these and was an absolute reminder that this is not a big box store, but a local staple that... read more

While visiting family in Raleigh I stopped by both Guitar Center as well as Sam Ash Music. The short time in Guitar Center reminded me why (cluttered/distressed sales floor as well as employees who could care less) I keep going back to Sam Ash...in person and online. My local "mom & pop" music store did sell the Yamaha DGX-670 keyboard I was wanting to check out. Once inside Sam Ash I was greeted by Sam (senior manager) and directed to the DGX-670 on display. After my spending some time experiencing such Sam was happy and ... read more

Went to a different music store yesterday…. When we asked for help, we were told ”I’m too busy” we ended up leaving and going to Sam Ash. When we stepped foot in the door, we had help. The agent Sam provided all the help he could to us based on his honest knowledge about the instruments. Our pastor is a former professional musician so he was very familiar with things also. We ended up buying more stuff because we saw the need for it. I can’t wait to here it all sunday morning.

After a horrible experience with the school recommended music company, I reached out to Sam Ashe and began speaking with Taylor about renting or purchasing a saxophone for my rising 6th grader. Taylor was clearly very knowledgeable and honest and explaining our options through Sam Ashe. We ended up purchasing a used instrument in the store. Taylor cleaned every pad and shined the instrument before we purchased and made sure we had all of our questions answered. She was amazing and eased my anxiety about whether we were maki... read more

I went to the store looking for a PA. Got tired of google showing 100 at a time without being able to listen to them. Then on another hand. I was looking to pick up a few things from someone with more experience than I when it comes to certain equipment. It was awesome. My wife and had a ball. She said we can never go back to that other guitar 🎸 store. 😂😂😂😂😂. Everyone greeted us with a smile or some cool quirky way of acknowledgement. No sales pressure. But definitely there when we were ready to mingle. Anyways. Just t... read more
