“They have guitars and amplifiers with yellow tags marked down on price. But all are faulty . No good. I checked 6 amplifiers . All faulty and the guitar I used was also faulty. The toggle selecter was only working the neck pickup. The speaker in the 1 amp for $ 2000 sounded blown . The gold knob on the volume fell off the marshall. The fender amp was selling as blemished and sounded water logged. Traynor was cracking. All on sale. Please beware. Check the gear thoughrally. Go somewhere else. Please. They are blacklisted.”
“Lundi 15 avril 2024 à 14 heures je me suis présenté Long & McQuade du 2700 chemin Ste Foy pour me procurer un clavier arrangeur numérique GENOS 2 de Yamaha afin d’ajouter un autre clavier à mes instruments. Au comptoir 2 personnes en discussion. Puisque je ne connais pas leur nom je vais les nommer le vieux et le jeune à barbe.
Je leurs demande de voir le clavier numérique Genos 2 de Yamaha. Le jeune fait une recherche sur son ordinateur. Le vieux lui dit yé! Tu ne vends pas ça tous les jours. Pourquoi demande le jeune, à 8000.$ tu n’en vends pas tous les jours. C’est dispendieux qu’il dit. Finalement le jeune répond : J’en ai pas à montrer et il faudrait le commander.
Afin de voir le type de produit, je demande avez-vous le PSRS 900 de Yamaha? Modèle sous le Genos 2. Réponse du jeune non! Finalement après quelques secondes, nous sommes trois à se regarder toujours devant le comptoir sans réponse. Je demande avez-vous un équivalent? On me fait un signe de la tête que non!
Je suis reparti de ce magasin bredouille de réponses et déçu de voir un magasin d’instrument de musique peu intéressé à montrer ses produits.
Bizarre de magasin! Ça ne vaut pas une étoile!”
“I had to return something at Waterloo store Chris was really rude to me . No customer service.
I will follow with head office . Do not recommend this store.
I was trying to explain a odd situation to him but he did not want to listen. Strongly do not recommend this store”

“I purchased a Martin Road Series guitar from the Ottawa store in 2022. I never got the set up completed. I was new to guitar and did not understand the importance of it. I purchased a nylon string Taylor in February 2023, and asked the sales person if the Martin set up service would still be honored. He said yes. Mind you I live 3 hours away in the US. When I tried to schedule the service, the person I spoke to was not helpful and seemed to say I could not get the service. I said never mind I will find a new provider. Not happy with this treatment”
“I arrived at the new store on Guelph line and the sale rep asked me if I needed help. I asked a few questions and selected strings and guitar polish. When I asked to take a look around the new store I was told. "Yes, but it's not a library". I'm 48 years old and I was talked down to like I was a punk kid. I purchased my items but I won't be back. How many thousands of dollars I've spent at Long & McQuade? For what? To be insulted.”
“Warning: if you choose the Rocktober 0% financing and (as per usual at L&M) the item is defective, they WILL charge you a stiff restocking fee. They will also insist that you knew this even though they did not mention it at all during your purchase. Deceptive, dishonest and despicable. I deleted my account. Going to Cosmo, Steve's, Sweetwater etc for all future purchases.”
