ACE DRUMS INC

Great Store! Owner's a Douche Bag though.
I'm a 17 year-old who started doing bass lessons at this fine establishment at the beginning of this year, and it was great!! The equipment was good quality, my lessons always went well. But after a few weeks of going there, I noticed the owner started to get real touchy with my mom!! I thought that it was just because he seemed like such a nice guy!! But a few days later come to find out my parents are divorcing and the reason why, is Ken!! (The Owner) Who also has a wife!! I have text message, AND life 360 proof of this happening!! My parents have been together for 24, almost 25 years! They basically grew up together, and they've NEVER had any infidelity until Ken! So who knows how many families he's ruined! OR how long this guy has been doing this! When my dad and I asked Ken about the situation. He lied and started posting his wife a bunch on facebook, we then saw the text messages and calls logs.
SO MY REVIEW!!
Really well set up store! A little cramped but a HUGE variety! Everyone knows their stuff when it comes to music! But the guy will try to steal your wife so kinda a win/lose situation. Hope this helps!! Thanks for ruining my parent's marriage Ken!!!

(P.S. Judd is a great instructor and guy)

5 stars, 6 stars, 10/10. They’ve got everything you need and you can tell how much Kenneth cares about the instruments and his patrons. Thank you! No one’s competing with this place

Ace Dums never disappoints. If they don’t have it .they’ll order it . Ken and the staff are terrific . Thankful we have a full service music store right here in Port Charlotte !!!

I had an incredible experience at ACE Drums, all thanks to Kenneth! His knowledge and expertise in musical instruments, especially bass guitars, were truly remarkable. Kenneth took the time to understand my preferences and skill level, guiding me through a range of options until we found the perfect bass guitar. His patience and dedication made the selection process enjoyable and stress-free. The store itself had a fantastic variety of instruments and accessories, making it a one-stop shop for all things music. If you're looking for top-notch service and a vast selection, ACE and Kenneth are the way to go

Prices are about average. I take Bass lessons there, the instructor Jud is a great instructor. After 28 lessons (30 minutes) I am able to play 10 + songs.
Ken and his staff are very user friendly with great attitudes.

Great people, extremely knowledgeable & friendly !
Keep up the great work ACE

I came to Ace Drums in need of a new guitar cable. What I left with was a plethora of music/instrument related information and a new favorite music store. Everyone I've met so far has been welcoming, knowledgeable, helpful, and wildly amusing, all at the same time. Despite the name, there is no shortage of other instruments and accessories; a french horn was walking out the door as I was walking in for my guitar needs (to a "drum" store).

Pete went through an entire set up on my Les Paul and explained everything he was checking and why. I never had a bad job done at Guitar Center, but I've certainly never received that level of attention, especially when I wasn't there to spend a lot of money. This was the least expensive (by far) and best done (also by far) set up I've had done on one of my guitars.

All-in-all, this is a true local community music store with lessons and repairs for almost ages (4-87, I believe), skill level, or instrument. If you're local or even passing through, you should definitely stop by and support Ace Drums.

Man I love this shop the owner /manager Kenneth is a super great guy very informative and very knowledgeable.

Ken and jud were both great. I went for an acoustic guitar, they had a good selection. I played them and found one I liked and got It.

I'm always so humbled and feel privileged to have been a patron from the beginning of the door open for me. Ken,,(the owner) is not just a owner. He's a great friend and personal to accommodate to the greatest of guarantee that everyone is welcome and make sure that satisfaction is a must before you leave. I'll always have a friend at AceDrums

Ken has a great shop and is a great guy! Not only drum related stuff he also has strings for guitar and bass, any Cable you might need, great comfortable straps if you need a last minute strap! He has guys that are great with repairs also!

Had my acoustic electric in for a professional setup. Great job, made a big difference, worth the money. Not just drums, they have all kinds of equipment for your needs in music. I highly recommend them for any repairs or setups. Thank you Ace! I will return.

Kenny is a great guy & doesn’t pressure you to buy anything. Great selection of instruments. Decided I wanted to learn guitar & he found an acoustic for me. Judd is a great guitar teacher & very patient with a “newbie” like me. I decided to also buy an electric car which he helped me pick out. There are prices to fit any budget so don’t hesitate to stop by if you’re looking for an instrument. Thanks Kenny for being so kind & thanks Judd for being so patient.

Great service! We were in there to buy drum sticks for my Daughter and came out of there with guitar lessons! Jud took us to the back and showed us his skills. Made my little girls day! Very friendly and very knowledgeable.

I love this place in port Charlotte, You find everything for your musical hobbies here plus lessons to improve your skill , people is very helpful, nice and professional. Thank for Jerry who work well to fix my old guitar. When you think about music shop , think Ace Drum

This place is awesome, they have just about every instrument you can think of amd even the ones you can’t think of, and if they do t have it they will get it! Plus they can teach you how to play anything, I go there for all my needs including guitar lessons, if you want guitar lessons go in and ask for Judd, he is a awesome teacher, and better yet loves what he does, he actually wants you to learn, unlike other places who just want your money. He really enjoys teaching. So if you want to learn pretty much anything ace drums is where you need to be, ask for Judd for the guitar lessons, you won’t be disappointed! I would give them more than 5 stars and that’s a fact!!!

Ace Drums is an awesome place to get your guitar worked on! They did an amazing job on my Gibson Les Paul! It needed some fret work and a setup and I couldn’t be anymore happy or pleased with the job their luthier did! Thank you so much Ace Drums!

Ken is an honest guy, with the knowledge of his products. Pricesare good for the quality you get. Great selection. Need lessons? The very best instruction available here. Ken is a member of a very successful and sought after group. Go see him.

Ken is THE BEST. It's a very comfortable music store that offers lessons and many other things. ACE Drums is by musicians and for musicians. I love this place and If I could give them a higher rating I would. We've purchased and amp and a 12 string guitar and get our strings and such from them regularly. They know how to keep a customer, great job all of you!

They always have what we need. Very friendly staff and reasonable prices. Parking is sometimes hard to find when they are busy and it's a very small store. But they do great with their limited space.
