Services
Jackson's Music was founded in Atlanta, Georgia in 1958 by brothers Jerry and Wesley Jackson. The two brothers ran the business together briefly, then Wesley went on to run the store by himself. A generation of Atlantans came to know Mr. J for his wit, his helpfulness, and his good deals. Long-time employee Charlotte Dryden and her husband, Doug Dryden, purchased the store from Mr. Jackson in 1978 when he decided to retire.

I wish I found this place sooner in my daughter's music career. The repair shop in Jackson's was AWESOME! Quick, efficient, friendly and the cost was just right. Thank you Dylan! Highly, greatly recommend.

Great experience working with Brian on my guitar purchase. He was very helpful and knowledgeable. I felt much better about spending my money here versus the big-box places.

Great customer service. I bought an audio interface here, and was going to buy an accessory that it turns out I didnt need. The guy there told me i didnt need it. Thanks to him I saved $20! Also I called later and they helped out with the product. Great store!

Always a pleasure to patronage this business. Friendly and helpful staff with smiles. A must visit for any musician or aspiring musician such as myself. I would have given 5 stars but I would liked to have seen more guitars to choose from. They have a decent selection but not as much as in the past, perhaps due to covid I don't know. However you can't go wrong making a stop at Jackson's music so check them out. ROCK ON!

The guitar I ordered online was too small. She was very sweet and accommodating to my mistake. Left with a new guitar I love. Gotta love your local music stores

Beth at Jackson's Music is amazing! I had major issues with my son's trumpet that another local music store could not fix completely, despite me paying them for the full repair. I was desperate looking for help and Beth said yes it was a fixable issue and she would keep the cost at a minimum. Well, it's 4 days later and my trumpet is fixed and with minimal cost just as Beth had promised! If you need ANY music needs, I highly recommend Jackson's Music! They definitely have my business from now on.

Need an instrument for my son's music class. It may be something he doesn't enjoy so spending $500+ on an instrument really isn't what we are looking to do. Was recommended this store to rent an instrument, sounds good? No. They want to run credit. No thank you.

I visited several times looking at a particular guitar and every time I felt very welcome and was encouraged to play whichever instruments I would like to. Staff has always been extremely helpful and knowledgeable. I would recommend anyone to the establishment for any musical needs.

Their kind, informed, and professional staff helped me select the perfect guitar and mandolin at a great price. In fact I know I got a better deal on these two instruments than I ever could have online and I would certainly not have gotten the service I received. Steve Dowd helped us and he was excellent. I couldn't have been more pleased nor recommend them more highly!

We've been going to Jackson Music for years. They used to be up on Robin Hood Rd. and I was always impressed at what a busy place they were. I used to go in and look at guitars and now that we have a 10-year-old and a 6-year-old taking everything from drums, voice, guitar and piano lessons, I remember why that old location seemed so busy! It is the "go to "place for lessons, Wind and string instruments and the best values in town on all new and used musical instruments.

They have a used guitar room and I've bought, among other things, a great used Les Paul standard and a great little (almost like new )stratocaster. I took guitar lessons back in 1978 at Pearson music in the mall and Thomas is still teaching, at Jackson Music! It was great to catch up with him and I took lessons for a bit after we reconnected. The kids love it and the staff is extremely friendly and helpful. It's a real hometown music store!
