Music & Arts in Lakewood has served the South Sound music community since establishing its location at the Lakewood Towne Center. As part of a nationwide network with roots dating back to 1952, this store combines decades of institutional knowledge with local expertise. The repair and maintenance team handles comprehensive instrument service, from guitar setups and fretwork to complete overhauls on orchestra and school band instruments.

The store’s technicians work closely with students and educators throughout Pierce County, maintaining instruments for programs at Curtis Junior High, Pioneer Middle School, and numerous other local schools. Their experience with both fretted instruments and orchestral pieces gives them versatility that benefits everyone from rock guitarists needing intonation adjustments to cellists requiring bridge work.

Beyond repairs, the Lakewood location offers instrument rentals and lessons from experienced instructors who understand the connection between proper instrument maintenance and playability. Their luthier services ensure guitars stay in optimal playing condition, while their expertise with brass, woodwinds, and strings makes them a comprehensive resource for the area’s diverse musical community. The team regularly helps performers preparing for shows at venues like the Cultura Event Center.
