Very nice store. It is large and clean! I was getting a cleaning kit for a beginning band student, so I cant give quality, prices or selection info, so maybe its five stars? They do have a repair shop.

I needed some new jazz picks and Greg was super nice and helpful! They have great prices and variety. This place is legit. I’ll definitely be coming back for anything music related.

From my first email to the store, to the clerk at the front desk, to the 3 gentlemen in the back room repairing instruments, everyone I spoke with was incredibly helpful, knowledgable, professional, down to earth, and genuine. They went above and beyond to match me with the perfect clarinet, and it was probably the single best retail experience Ive ever had. Everyone in Beacock Music in Vancouver is incredibly knowledgable, passionate about music, and an incredible resource for the customers. Thank you so much!! I got home and could actually play the instrument (after a long hiatus) and promise to take such good care of it!

Awesome fantasyland. Probably 60-70 models of ukuleles. Makes me want to learn to play every type of instrument.

We have used Beacock Music for rentals, purchases of new, and taken classes and everyone there is helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. Definitely my favorite music store to go to!

Very helpful and friendly staff in-store, they helped me find the right piano and was able to deliver it on the same day with no issues. All around great experience!

The workers always have great customer service and so much enthusiasm for music. It is my favorite place to go, both for vibes and aesthetics. 10/10 would go again.

Great staff and an awesome environment any music junkies paradise from guitars to ocarinas beacocks has almost anything you could need to help you and your musical obsessions

One of my favorite places. Lots of variety in equipment. However the people who work there is what really makes the difference.

Staff was friendly and helpful. I was there for a school rental

Been coming here for about a year or two, I’ve bought plenty of strings, recently bought an amp, several music theory books, some FX pedals; every time I’m here there is always someone happy to help me and with very vast and extensive knowledge about what I’m trying to buy. Whether you’re a practicing musician, a hobbyist, enthusiast, this is the place to go. Can I also mention they have a large variety of selection in each one of their departments.

Wendy worked my 1918 Buescher baritone sax with excellent care. She went over and above to give life back to my horn.I am extremely satisfied with the result and with her professional approach to instrument repair. Wendys knowledge and expertise is unserpassed.Ive dealt with several different woodwind repair people in the 55 years of playing and Wendy is the best ever. I thoroughly recommend her.!!!!

Excellent Staff and Store. They were VERY helpful and understanding during a recent transaction that was entirely my fault. They showed their true colors in being SUPER customer friendly. 5 Stars to Michelle and Ryan!!!!

From the moment you walk in; till the moment you leave. They treat you like family. You cant go wrong with their services. They do the best they can.

*I am only giving a bad rating do to my most recent experience, outside of that I have had no problems with this store, and find it to be a great place*During this particular experience I had been shopping for a new clarinet. I have been playing for a few years, and was hoping to upgrade to an intermediate level. My price range was about 500-800 dollars, typical for a used wooden clarinet. To sum it up, I purchased a $640 clarinet, and when I got home, it was out of tune, and wouldn’t even play properly. I had planned on returning it, and out of curiosity looked up the model. Turns out they sold me a clarinet worth no more than 50-100 dollars. I’m not sure what they intended with their mark up prices, but I will never be buying an instrument there again.Here is a screen shot of a clarinet (same model) sold online roughly $500 cheaper.

Beacock Music has been around for a while, and Ive purchased several guitars and accessories from them. All have been great quality, and a fair price. Ive also had work done on my guitar and they know how to handle and upgrade/fix instruments. Recently, Ive had the great pleasure of wonderful customer service from Lowell-George, who was very helpful when deciding my next purchase. I recommend you visit and check it out. Thanks Beacock Music!

So much more than a just a music store. On my last visit, very personable employees helping with every question.The longer I stayed there, the more I enjoyed myself.Ill be back, you guys are great!!

Always the most friendly and open staff. Great place to shop, my first choice

Great place. huge selection.

Great selection for an extremely wide variety of instruments, with a very friendly and helpful staff. Couldnt have a more pleasurable shopping experience. I found exactly what I wanted right away for a great price. I will be a repeat customer for sure. Thanks!

Only complaint is that I dont work there.

Large selection of very high quality instruments, they offer in-house financing which is awesome. And theyre very helpful and have resources for many kinds of instrument repair. Its a great all-around shop

Been coming here for almost 15 years. Great store great service.

Awesome music store! Clean with great lighting on all the displays. Big selection with plenty of everything. Went in looking for an odd ball drum piece, that I didnt expect anyone to have, super knowledgeable employees set me on the right path! Appreciate the help!

Always appreciate the customer service here! They have a great selection, fair prices and it feels good to support a local business as opposed to big box stores!

Been coming here since I was a kid. Very cozy place to hang out and play music, drink coffee, and get more gear and some repairs depending on what instrument you have. They don’t do pickup installations or wiring mods or anything like that but they can set it up and restring it for you. Highly recommend.

Always a great time! Friendly, knowledgeable staff and easy transactions. I love renting and buying instruments here and their willingness to order sheet music! 10/10

Friendly atmosphere. Stopped here for some hot rods last minute. They have a good stock of drums sets, congas, and sticks here.

I absolutely love Beacock music! They put on amazing plays and musicals... If you havent already seen one, I highly recommend that you do! Such talented people! A great way to spend an afternoon! Grab a few friends and make it a date!

I have a family of musicians. Beacocks is my go to for birthdays and other holidays. They are always helpful and reasonably priced.

Good experience- once I found it! (That was a bit hard). Otherwise- great. Helpful employees, and good service.

Amazing 😎👊👍

Ive been coming here for as long as I remember. They always have what I need and the people working there are always nice and helpful.

I love it there! They branch and drive into schools all around the area (even into Sandy) and theyre really nice! Offers plans for you so youre able to still get an instrument that youre looking for. The place is super huge and the people are super nice. I love the fact that they offer lessons on the upstairs floor and they have tons of music and instruments! Love the café inside the store!! Theres a section with specific cleaning supplies and it has practice rooms. Im planning on coming back sometime soon and I know Im not going to be disappointed!!!

Ryan was extremely helpful

Great local music store. Would recommend over Guitar Center every day, 8 days a week.

To have a place like this in this part of town is a godsend! We purchased a piano here because we wanted local support. They delivered and set it up at home. All the staff Ive encountered KNOW music and some of them play multiple instruments which is very helpful when I dont play, but want to and unsure of what Im looking for. As far as quantity, there seems to be no end whether its strings, brass, percussion, etc. Ive been over several times now shopping guitars and they helped me pick out a few and set me up in their private lesson studio so i could session each in private for as long as i needed with absolutely no pressure to buy. Theres also a little coffee shop in the back and a place to sit which I think is a nice touch to the whole experience. If youre in the market for musical instrument, dont cross the river until you check out Beacock!

Best music store around! Great staff and so much to choose from. Lowell went out of his way to make our experience perfect! Thank you again for such a flawless transaction and personal service!

As a local in Camas, I always try and support local businesses. I have given Beacock Music the opportunity a few different times with my music needs, and each time they have failed. Good luck trying to get someone on the phone, and when you go into their store, prepared to be unsold on anything you are looking for. I will continue to head to Portland music stores instead of shopping here.

As a senior citizen, I decided to challenge my brain to learn the ukulele. I had never played a string instrument . Tyson J Schmidling, my teacher, is excellent. He is calm, patient and totally non-judgmental. I look forward to my lesson every week, and walk out energized with new ideas and things to practice. I am a retired arts educator of 50 years, and Tyson is a top notch teacher in my book.

I dont get the bad reviews. Ive been going to the Vancouver location for years now and have spent around $9k there in that time. Ive bought electric and acoustic guitars, guitar setups and repairs, pedals, a banjo, a bass, amps, a microphone, cables and hardware, electronic drums and now drum lessons. Their staff is always awesome, super helpful, very knowledgeable and never make me wait to be helped. If I could give them more stars I would.

Excellent store for instruments rental with fair prices.

Great place, great friendly staff, the Energy is wonderful. You can handle the instruments and play them. You can rent instruments for school band classGreat little cafe that has espresso and cup of soup and sandwiches for $5.00.

Awesome peopleBeacock rocks

Dude. Sickest music store ever. The people that work here are seriously amazing and you need to see it for yourself.

Ccs is it. By that I mean you need not look any further for your meal destination in Columbia. It is a true Midwest steakhouse, with steak dishes that boast in their quality, taste, and being cooked to perfection. The service here at CCs is very professional and elegant, and helps set the mood for the classy ambience.

I brought my B&S Trumpet here for a silver plating repair and Ultrasonic cleaning. Fast forward three days and I am back to pick up my horn. I inspect the work and am quite pleased with the end result. They replaced necessary pads for my valves and water key and ensured my horn left in great condition. They also honored a 10% military discount off their work after they checked with the general manager and I presented I.D. I drove from Oregon to come here because I believe their quality of work and services offered to be far superior to other local options in my area. Thank you Beacock music for a job well done.

I gave my husband guitar lessons as a gift. He has been very pleased with his instructor as well as the sales staff. Everyone is super helpful, friendly, and professional. We are so impressed with Beacock Music we gifted our niece with piano lessons and a portable piano! She really enjoys her lessons!

They were very helpful when I went in with mini guitar. They set me up with what I needed...except they were the wrong tuners and strings. I would still come here to shop yet cause they are very nice to work with and very good even with having returned the parts that I bought. Much nicer folks then the Big Guitar Store.

Youd be hard-pressed to find a more thorough love of all things music than this place. From selling instruments to instruction to classes for our toddlers in music activity, this place covers all the bases and they even have a decent coffee bar!!! Whats not to love.

Great place highly recommend!

Absolutely amazing selection of gear and best of all everyone is knowledgeable and can find exactly what your after. I’ve been shopping for my entire music playing span since I first started back in mid late 2000’s. I’ll continue shopping here as they have gone out of their way to help me purchase several items! (Guitars, pedals & amps) Thank you

Super great service and the service dept was excellent! We bought our daughter a trumpet there and Walter and his team took excellent care of her instrument in the repair shop! Phenomenal service!

Purchasing a musical instrument can often be confusing, what instrument fits your needs, style of play, as well as your budget. I have had the pleasure working with the Director of Band and Orchestra Sales, Wayne Thompson at Beacock Music. My daughter was in the market for a new saxophone and although I did some research, Wayne was quite instrumental in determining my daughters needs and helped determine what instrument would be the best fit for her. As often is the case, a decision to buy a musical instrument may be personal as well as functional. Wayne Thompson spent many hours offering suggestions and possible solutions to my daughter before she made a decision. If you are in the market for a musical instrument, I strongly suggest you contact Wayne, set up an appointment to discuss your wants and needs. You will not be disappointed. As often is the case, adjustments may be required when purchasing a new instrument. Wayne insisted that I contact him to set up this appoint as well. He took a proactive role when service was needed. An awesome experience and a big THANK YOU!!!

The receptionist is too much friendly and happy. Some of instructors missed the class on-time. One thing for the parents, bring your earbud. You will need them.

Ive been to Beacock a few times over the last 10 years and it seems to be kind of hit or miss on the service. The employees are pretty nice for the most part. The selection is somewhat limited in the guitars and amp selections. The items are priced for about what youd pay anywhere else (like Guitar Center).I took lessons here for a few months and the instructor was very nice and helpful, but I didnt think it was a very good value for what basically boiled down to $1 per minute. Im also disappointed that you dont get a small discount on lesson books at the store if youre taking lessons there - I suppose the cashier said it best: we like to make everything as expensive as possible.

The absolute Best place to buy a guitar in all of Vancouver! Fantastic customer service and super friendly staff! I just purchased a brand new Fender Stratocaster from them and they made the experience fun and enjoyable. Jared was super helpful and made sure I got the guitar sounding just as I wanted. I recommend Beacock music to everyone!

Watched a staff member stand behind the counter with his mask just hanging from his ear and then proceed to carry boxes around the main area while still not wearing his mask

I always have a great experience. these guys are local people, and they are more than helpful when you ask. Guitar center has nothing on these guys.

Love going into Beacocks. Its always a pleasure. Friendly and courteous staff, a well stocked and delicious cafe and an atmosphere that is befitting of a music shop. The staff is also very knowledgeable. I have to give credit to Jared Anderson. Hes usually the one that helps me and is a great guy. Fun to talk to, knows his stuff, and is easily one of, if not their best associate. Highly recommend this shop. You wont be disappointed.

One thing they have going for them is inventory. Its fun to go there and browse. I cant honestly give them a high rating because every time I go in they always try to sell me the most expensive item. Thats happened more than once and it gets old. Just yesterday I went in to purchase a guitar. After about a half hour (nobody came over to help) I took a guitar to the counter to purchase. The sales guy insisted on showing me other guitars. The one I wanted was about $250. He preceeded to show me an $800 guitar, then a $1,299 one. When we got around to the $4,000 models I politely thanked him and left having not purchased anything. lol Thankfully the one I wanted is on Amazon and $50 less anyway. Live and learn.

I have been playing and repairing guitars for over forty years. Every time I visit this store some young punk tries to tell me that good guitar players like high action and thats why they dont have even one guitar with low action. The truth is they dont know how to set up a guitar!Instead of trying to sett up a guitar that wont hurt your fingers they will preach to you about how high (bad) action is the way you should have itThe punk will just argue if you let him; he must be the owners son.

Its a nice place to go, but they dont ever answer the phone.

Best music store ever.

Beacocks is amazing. They have a huge assortment of musical instruments and all the accessories needed for them.The customer service people are amazing as well. Each one seems really enthusiastic about the instruments they sell, and music in general.Beacocks also offers lessons.... Any kind of musical lessons that you can imagine, from cellos and violins, to mandolins, acoustic bass, and electric guitar.I love this place!! Oh! And they have a cute coffee shop and seating area, for moms and dads who are just waiting for their kids to finish a lesson.

They have a great repair department! Pam is one of the best slide people in the Northwest, and they have always been very helpful and courteous. My only complaint is that I cant make an appointment to get stuff done. I have to drive 40+ miles one way to have them work on things and then drive back days later to get the horn!

Website needs some work. I spend 20 minutes filling out all of their forms to rent an instrument last night, received an email saying it would be available for pickup by 5:00pm today, and then got a call this morning saying that they didnt have any available to rent.I would really appreciate being able to know whats available before signing up for an account and giving them all of my personal information, credit card, etc.

Been going to becocks for over 30 years. Great place and good people.

Today I brought our family clarinet in to see if it needed any repairing for my daughter to start playing and I was met with the most helpful and knowledgeable staff. A+ for customer service!

Great place for purchasing new gear.However, do not get your guitar set up or repaired here. Ive had two guitars looked at for electronic and intonation issues. The guy didnt seem to take the time to check his work as I still had the same issues when I got the guitars back. The guitar guy only works Fridays and Saturdays so he took forever on a simple set up in one case. He tried to up sell me, and did an overall bad job for way too much money.The guitars I had him look at still had the same intonation issues after his overpriced set up with feet filing and all that. The electronic issue I had on the other guitar has gotten worse. Again, I dont think he takes the time to understand the problem youre having and doesnt sufficiently check his own work. Wont go back for repairs.

I keep trying this place to keep business local, but they seriously have the worst customer service. The staff seems to think that their job is to huddle together and ignore the customers. There’s usually 6 or more staff standing around in the center and you have to ask to be helped or even check out. Guess I’ll head back to the GC where they at least know how to acknowledge customers.

Great staff and service. Rick in stringed instrument repair did an exceptional job on my Gibson LG-V2 parlor, built by the Gibson Custom shop. I highly recommend him.

Suppose if you walk in with money to spend and know what you want youll probably get your moneys worth...I wanted some minor dents removed from a vintage high end trumpet.The repair guy bsed me. Cant remove the dents completely because the metal had stretched. Hello I understand plastic deformation. The best they could do was clean the horn.After several direct questions he suggested a place in Seattle that could do the job. Coulda saved me and him time up front.

What a refreshing music store! Helpful and friendly service; wide variety of accessories in stock. Reasonably priced.

Decent selection of microphones and accessory cables and connectors.

My daughter really enjoyed the recent Wish You Were Here (Pink Floyd) experience with Tyson Schmidling and Mark Cuneo. She has been taking guitar from Tyson for several years and loves it. We truly appreciate the quality instruction available at Beacock.

Such helpful and knowledgeable staff! Both my kids have had great experiences with their services.

Would not help me over the phone with a simple question about repairs. Wanted that I just come in so they can take a look when I am an hour away and wanted to inquire about whether or not they sell individual tuning heads. worst experience ever. He did not listen to me and acted like some sort of warehouse robot. I am very sorry to see music stores like this. shame.

Awesome. people there are cool. they let you test their instruments as loud as you want (not EXTREMELY, but you get the point). big selection of instruments. they have guitars, bass, drums, violins, trumpets, etc. you name it, they have. great place

Great customer service and knowledgeable employees. They do their best to take care of you and treat you as if they appreciate your buisness. Unlike GC.. However, their guitar tech is not in anyway a guitar tech. He left my guitar in even worse shape than it was when I brought it in and what needed fixed was not a complicated job. So bring your guitars somewhere else.

Wonderful place for your instument rental or purchase. Today we are Blessed to surprise our grandaughter with a new instrument. Thank you Russ and Ryan. God Bless and Merry Christmas.

Im not sure why people say their staff is friendly.. They are all sharks. You cant get 2ft into the store without someone throwing something at you and then looking at you like youre dumb when you ask for a specific thing. I always try to buy guitar strings that I specifically want and am hounded by their employees every time about buying this or that or better strings what have you. How about just letting me buy what I need?

Great place for all things related to music! I love playing their guitars and sometimes they join me. We bought my son a very nice saxaphone there and the advice we received was priceless. His love of that instrument fueled a passion that produced amazing music. I bought an acoustic amplifier (Roland) there and I could not be more happy with it. I bought, and installed, a K-N-K Pure Mini Pickup for an acoustic guitar Ive had for years... and it sounds amazing!(They sell you stuff you will love for a long time :)

Beacock Music is very nice music store here in Vancouver, WA. Friendly staff, comfy armchairs to sit and relax in while waiting for your coffee anda great choice of music instruments and music books

They deserve your business

Awesome store, and a great place to look for instruments of almost any kind. I do wish theyd expand a bit more into the digital realm though.

After making a phone call to verify they had a pre-cut guitar saddle for an Epiphone I arrived only to find Employees with less working knowledge than Guitar Center. The clerk tried to sell me a blank of bone. Same guy I spoke with on the phone. He had zero idea of the saddle and absolutely no idea of anything I asked about. I will shop elsewhere. This store would be okay if I were shopping for a school instrument but Id never suggest buying an adult musicians equipment there. Lottsa free parking.

Great experience buying my acoustic Fender here. Very gentle staff and competitive prices

Theyre pretty much the only decent-sized place in town, and theyve got everything they should, but theyre not exceptional. I went in today to get a nut for my trumpets 3rd valve slide, a part that is worth at most 50¢, but it cost me $4, which is simply insane.

Went in late on a weekday evening, and the store was well-staffed with employees that were amazingly helpful -- and friendly to boot. If only all retail stores were run like Beacock!

Went to gphs in Grants pass to get my daughter her violin. First off guy didnt seem to sure on what he was doing and kept adding a bunch of random things and told us we had to buy it all and not just the violin. (Books,chin rest, a bag for chin rest, music stand)We asked do we have to purchase everything again and he said yes so we were like okay since our daughter wanted to play. So we were handed everything that night but a chin rest bag that the man said would be sent to the school and givin to her in strings class well thats was back in October 2018, I called the store talked to multiple people saying it should be at the school shortly in December and then called again February 13th letting them know I still dont have it and they promised I would have it by the end of the month of February 2019...... well now its March 6th 2019.. terrible customer service! Wish you guys had it more together and were honest with your paying customers and came through on your promises!

The staff is awesome and the environment is so positive.

Today I visited the Vancouver Store to obtain some supplies for my Sons Trombone and I noticed the wide selection of supplies, Anyway many Items on Display are not Priced, so you have to inquire. I do not like this because you end up getting things that are Overpriced! The service is acceptable but the goods are expensive! Gustavo P. Reyes.

Great selection. Friendly staff. Lesson studio....and you can have a cappuccino while you wait.

Im in the proces of recording an album and visit here often. Friendly staff, great service and good prices. Thank you!

Its terrible the lesson are scams 30 mins and $30 fore each lesson and $120 per month and one lesson a week. i rather go the hammersmith and get guitar lessons there and the teacher goes to the bathroom alot at purpose just to waste time and you dont even learn anything and its boring. The guitars are alright but the employees at friday are straight up dicks i ask for a pedal to use and there to lazy to get it guitars are alright but lesson and employees are terible

I go to Beacock before I even think about going to guitar center. They know me as a loyal costumer and greet me when I walk in.

Whats best about this store is that they carry all types of instruments, from trumpets to drums and electric guitars. Great selection on acoustic guitars, but pretty low on fx pedals.

I need to tell everyone about my wonderful experience coming into this store. First of all I was met with courteous and professional sales people. I only wish I could be there locally. I have been in several music stores in three different states. I am very pleased with the purchase of my Alto Sax. I have always had my questions answered right away. The atmosphere in this store is wonderful, the café is very relaxing. The prices of their instruments are very comparable to any other place I have been in. Another thing I forgot to mention is that I live 2 1/2 hours south of Vancouver and I am going to travel up to Beacocks whenever I need anything music. The trip is well worth it. I have never had such a pleasant experience in a business as I had there.Dwest

I will never let them do any work on any stringed instrument of mine and will never recommend them to anyone! Beacock Musics guitar luthier, Rick Reiss, is untrustworthy at best!I play banjo and guitar and usually do my own work on my instruments, but I didnt have the right tool for a pickup installation. I needed the end pin hole on my guitar enlarged so I could mount a 1/4 jack end pin, but when I tried to ask a question about mounting the new end pin, he told me Im not going to tell you how to fix your guitar before I was even halfway through asking the question (had he let me finish my question, he would have found out that I was going to ask if he had a cork washer for the 1/4 jack end pin). At this point he had lost my business, but he still went into his sales pitch (which included attempts at flattery) trying to sell me work on my guitar that I didnt need. I told Rick that I was taking my guitar home, and that he had lost my business because he was so rude to me, to which he responded with Im not going to answer your questions; were a guitar repair shop. This was particularly shocking to me because every other luthier/repair person Ive ever dealt with has been extremely helpful and answered all my questions.Its a shame that I can no longer recommend Beacock Music to people because the rest of the store staff have been very helpful in the past. After my experience with Rick Reiss, I can no longer trust the quality of their instruments or the quality of their staff.
