Thank you for an amazing remote purchase experience! From my initial e-mail contact to communication about the transaction to the shipping, this was a great purchase experience. Beyond that however, I have to say that the setup on this guitar is better than any other I have ever (decades) purchased - anywhere (across the US). And I've owned some amazing guitars and purchased them form some well known boutique shops. I am convinced this guitar did not come setup this well from the factory and I thank you and your technician's for doing exactly what I asked. All I had to do is tune up and I am on my way. Just amazing. I'm a fan!

I stopped in several times looking for a new acoustic guitar. Three different people helped me out and every time they were all super friendly, down to earth, and knowledgeable. I felt like they were trying to help me find a guitar that would work for me, not upsell me (which is a huge difference!).I would stop back in a heartbeat!

The folks at Music Villa were fantastic! We rented a keyboard with bench/stand for our musician friend to play at our wedding in July 2024. Their team was responsive, professional, and totally worked with us with pickup/drop-off times. Highly recommend!

Paul Decker is one of the most honest, friendly, and kindest people I know.If you don’t buy from Music Villa, in person or on line you are missing out. Paul took in a worn old gentleman ‘75 Martin for a great all mahogany 000 Martin. The D-35 was just too big for me. Shoulder began hurting one song in. Told Paul of my issues and he led me to the perfect match. No gouging, no smoke and mirrors. Just a good trade for both. Thank you Paul and Music Villa.

I just ordered and received the Eastman E10D from these fine folks. It arrived in great shape and plays and looks beautiful. Thanks so much for the great deal you guys offered on this. I am proud to say I have finally purchased from this awesome music store. Hope to buy something down the road from you folks again, but I may need to sell something first if my spouse has anything to say about it!

Mario is the man!! He helped me around the store and constantly checked in to see if her could offer any assistance. Everyone here is so friendly and they WANT you to have fun! The selection was very impressive and the vibes on point. If you're in Bozeman, come here!!

Without a doubt, the coolest guitar store in the country. I have done a lot of domestic traveling and I always search out the local guitar store. Music Villa is without a doubt my all time favorite. The staff and service is great, but the selection and atmosphere are really what make this place special. Dedicated Martin & Gibson walls along with the coolest vintage & rare guitar room I’ve ever seen.

I worked with Chad and the MV team to first talk thru the smallest details of the custom shop Martin I had been looking for. The guitar is the MV Hot Rodded D-18 with a VTS top. We ordered the guitar in August and just last week it landed on my doorstep on the central coast of California. The guitar is everything I had hoped for and more. Well worth the wait. The customer service from my initial half hour consultation with Chad to delivery of this gorgeous instrument has been superb. It is so clear that these folks know their stuff and clearly have great working relationships with Martin, Gibson, Taylor and others. The folks at Music Villa/Acoustic Letter are highly recommended, regardless of where you live in the country.

The shop is amazing! You will not find a better selection at any large music store. There is an instrument for any budget from beginner to advanced. Music Villa staff is very kind and knowledgeable, and will go out of their way to help their customers. If you are in the area, do yourself a favor and stop in and say hello. You just might leave with a locally made Gibson acoustic guitar!
