"One of the Best Instrument Shops in Southern Louisiana. I drive from Baton Rouge to New Orleans just for the Customer Service. Family Run. Business for 30+ years. There is no better. Beats the big box stores because they actually know what they are talking about"

"The best experience with a store I've never been to and people I have never met. The buying experience was second to none. The guitar was stunning and the plek was outstanding."

"I've purchased a guitar, pedals, pickups, and a few other things from here. Fair pricing and all the guys always have helpful info on any gear. Top notch guitar work — all my guitars played so much better after having them set up. Still drive two hours to pick up all my things after moving."

"Aaron was super helpful with all my questions! Great atmosphere and pleasant employees."

"Excellent place to buy instruments from. Never set foot in the store, but I've interacted with them through Reverb and their website with fast and helpful communications. I've bought a 5 string Spector Euro bass and a Charvel San Dimas from them — just great experiences all around. Keep it up folks!"

"If you're a musician or even a beginner this is the place to go. Mel and his team are superb when it comes to customer service and quality instruments. You can go to GC and be a number or you can come to C&M and be treated like a customer!"

"Decided to pick the guitar back up after a 15 year break. Raymond introduced me to their Martin acoustic line and explained the details of each and how the quality reflected in the pricing. After demoing the D-15M, it was a no-brainer. Thank you for your expertise and the opportunity to support your business. Highly recommend!"

"These guys are awesome. They keep good stuff in stock and plenty of instruments in rotation."

"I recently visited this shop on a short trip to Louisiana from Texas, and I was very pleased with the staff. He was able to make me a fantastic deal on an Ibanez EHB bass. Wasn't looking to buy an instrument initially, however, the great service and help convinced me otherwise. Awesome shop!!"

"Bought a PRS Swamp Ash with them and had the best phone call. They were quick to respond to all my questions and took time explaining the model and Plek setup. I can tell they love their jobs and the guitars they sell. Very kind and helpful every step of the way."

"Great service. Fair prices, good selection, outstanding knowledgeable staff. You really couldn't ask for anything more. This place is the jam."

"The best store around, period. Wonderful staff. Some absolutely amazing finds in this store. A diamond in the rough indeed, but that's how art is. This store deserves to be 5x larger."
