Sue WI was looking for a new mouthpiece for a refurbished eefer with which I was having some adjustment issues. I stumbled across Lisa’s Clarinet Shop, and looking led the site because it had a Chat feature. The chat couldn’t help me, but I called and left a message, and within 10 minutes I was speaking with the knowledgeable, helpful owner of the business. I didn’t feel rushed or foolish for my questions, and she went out of her way to help me find a good mouthpiece fit for my needs, sending 4 for me to try. Definitely my new favorite music place.Posted on Google
Jessica TWe just bought our daughter's first step up instrument from Lisa's Clarinet Shop. As someone completely unfamiliar with the process and living out of state, it was a daunting process for us to be sure. We wanted to find a high quality instrument that was a great fit for my daughter, but without having to buy a clarinet sight unseen. Lisa truly made it so simple - we spoke over the phone, then set up a zoom call with my daughter and her teacher to get to know her needs and playing style better, after which Lisa thoughtfully selected several clarinets and mouthpieces for her to try. A few days later they were on our doorstep! After trying them all out with her teacher, she found a terrific fit. It gave me such peace of mind for my daughter to be able to play and evaluate each instrument with her teacher before committing to a purchase, even though we are out of state. Lisa made the process seamless. Thank you!!Posted on Google

Michael MLisa was absolutely fantastic through my journey getting a clarinet. She was on the phone with me multiple times with no rush in her voice, sometimes for 30 minutes! She explained everything perfectly and even sent videos of the setup that she thought would be best for me! On top of this, she let me try many different mouthpiece and barrels on trial with plenty of time to get a feel. If you need expert opinions and patience, this is the place to go:)Posted on Google
Douglas LPurchased two very expensive clarinets and experienced total professionalism. Lisa is both an extremely competent business person and knowledgeable musician. I would not hesitate to work with her again.Posted on Google
Dawn SI had a great experience today at Lisa's Clarinet Shop! The repairman explained clearly and well about the state of my ancient clarinet. It was more than what I got from two Quad City music repairmen. I was ready to buy a new-to-me clarinet and Lisa found the perfect one in my price range. It sounds beautiful! Thank you for your expertise!Posted on Google
Steve SThis would be my second instrument I've purchased at Lisa's Clarinet Shop. The first time was about five years ago when I needed a big step up from a cheap A clarinet I had bought elsewhere, and Lisa guided me to the beautiful Tosca I have today. Today, I realized my 35 year-old Bb Buffet R13 that has been my main instrument, was near the end of its days as a professional level instrument that I could rely on and was ready for an upgrade, too. Where to begin? I reviewed my options on-line different Buffet line-ups and in the end, really needed someone to again consult with to choose the right instrument for my needs. Lisa allowed me to try out a few different instruments that I was aiming for, and really understand the differences between them, and comparing against my old Bb, and then compared to the A I had purchased years ago. By repeating this cycle of comparison, it really helped me line up to the instrument I purchased today. In the end, I got a great companion instrument to go alongside my A. Thanks Lisa!Posted on Google
Cheryl TI have nothing but positive things to say about Lisa’s Clarinet Shop! My daughter needed an A clarinet. We live in a rural area and the only music shop in town doesn’t carry A clarinets. The nearest shops that carry A clarinets (3-4 hours away) had a limited selection in stock so we were hesitant to make the drive and not find a good match for her. While searching for alternatives, we discovered Lisa’s Clarinet Shop. We liked the idea of doing a trial of 3 clarinets at home (especially because my daughter’s clarinet instructor could be a part of the evaluation process) but were a little hesitant to call at first. We have never purchased an instrument this way before and we were a little unsure about how it would all work out. We decided to take a chance and give Lisa’s shop a call and are so glad that we did! From the minute we were connected with one of Lisa’s ambassadors, Zac, we knew that we were in good hands. Zac spent a lot of time getting details about my daughter’s needs and explaining the clarinet trial process. I am not a musician so I was very appreciative that Zac explained the musical aspects of the clarinet selection process in a way that was easy for me to understand. He was very knowledgeable and also patient with the questions we had along the way. Lisa sent 3 clarinets based on Zac’s assessment of which ones might be a good fit for her. My daughter was thrilled that one of those 3 clarinets was a perfect fit for her! As far as shipping, our communications with Sam regarding shipping were terrific too. We wholeheartedly recommend Lisa’s Clarinet Shop!Posted on Google
Angela HLisa was so kind, helpful, and knowledgeable while selecting my new instrument. I am so glad I visited and had her walk me through the process!
What our Customers Have to Say About Us!
Everyone I emailed from Lisa’s were all extremely kind and informative. Jerry gave me the best idea of what I may want to look for. They sent me three Buffet Festivals to try and I have found my new professional clarinet that will hopefully last me a long time! They were also extremely kind to my family as my family initially reached out in order to help me find somewhere to get a new instrument. Jerry, Michael, and Heather were in contact with me the entire time and made sure that the process was going well and made sure to listen to anything I had to say about any of the instruments.
I can’t thank the professionals that work for Lisa’s Clarinet Shop enough! What an outstanding experience it was to work with them! From the moment I clicked on their link I was greeted with friendly interaction and the MOST helpful advice. Jerry listened attentively to what I was looking for and found the PERFECT instrument for me at a very reasonable price and I couldn’t be happier. His advice on clarinet mouthpieces was so helpful and his choices for my trial resulted in my finding the perfect combination of clarinet and mouthpiece. I highly recommend Lisa’s Clarinet Shop for expert advice and guidance in all of your clarinet needs!
Whenever I am in the market for finding a clarinet for myself or one of my students, I know I can count on Lisa for the best service and selection. She offers outstanding customer service, a personal expertise in the selection of the finest clarinets available, and an overwhelming commitment to customer satisfaction. Her pledge of excellence is further exemplified by the fact that she exclusively sells Buffet Crampon clarinets – the cornerstone of fine craftsmanship. There is no doubt in my mind that Lisa’s Clarinet Shop is the place where you will find the best instrument to help you achieve your best musical voice!
I have known Lisa Canning for well over 20 years – and in that time I have seen a brilliant businesswoman, an entrepreneur, a superbly accomplished clarinetist, and a person with a drive and determination rarely seen. Lisa’s Clarinet Shop is, in essence, the ONLY place in the entire Chicago metropolitan area to purchase a clarinet – and to feel confident that the instrument has been hand picked and serviced by Lisa. All my clarinets – Eb, C, Bb, A, and Bass were purchased from Lisa – and I could not be more pleased with the quality and service that accompanied all my horns.
