THE BRAND

The success of the Music Go Round® brand is possible due to our passion for used musical instruments and equipment. Our stores feature used, quality gear at great prices. We buy modern and vintage items, testing all to ensure our products are in great working condition before hitting the sales floor. Our store atmosphere is an energetic and hip retail environment with creative displays that allow product testing on-site. Our staff of musicians understands the needs of their customers and uses this knowledge to buy used instruments all day, every day! They buy used and vintage items, give customers $$ on the spot and price all resale merchandise at great prices offering the best value anywhere.

Music Go Round’s unique business model allows music buffs to create their own discount by trading in gear they are no longer playing and buying items from the wide and ever-changing selection of musical gear.
