If
we've got it, it has strings or MOOG made it. Or both. We have the new MOOG guitar. This is the first real advance in guitar technology since 1949.
 We
don't carry anything with a spit
valve. But if you're looking in Dallas for a violin, bass, cello, banjo,
mandolin, guitar, autoharp or anything else with strings on
it or music published by Barenreiter then this is the place. We are also a dealer of MOOG products and even understand some of them. Why does a string shop carry the world's best analog synth?. We aren't entirely sure but partly because Bob Moog was a cool old guru guy and all MOOG products have at least a little bit of wood in them. And violins are also made of wood ..... Our shop is small but it is crammed
full of neat stuff. And unlike certain other fancypants mega
corporation-owned stores we'll remember you when you come back. That is usually a good thing.
Hours
We
are generally open by one pm at the latest. We close sometime between
6pm and midnight. If you plan to come early or late, please call ahead. It is usually not difficult to make an appointment for other times. Only once in ten years have we forgotten about one.
Where
are you guys?
We
are located in Dallas, TX near Richardson on the NorthWest corner
of Coit and Beltline, in the Spring Creek Village shopping center.
You'll see a Shell 7-11 station, a large white brick building, Black-Eyed Pea, Taco bell, and the Plant Market. We're in the very far back corner
of that parking lot, on the courtyard next to Mary Ellen's Tea Room. Our shop is
carefully hidden behind a tree.
That tree, along with our stubborn
aversion to print advertising, is one reason we are the best-kept secret
in Dallas. Look for the green neon fiddle above our door. If you can't find it,
give us a call: (972) 458-2980.

News
& Announcements And Stuff |
- The Google Map thing shows our shop somewhere near a trailer park in Plano, about 9 miles from where it really is. GPS and Google map coordinates are 7989 Beltline Road, Dallas. This will NOT work as a mailing address.
- If we miss your call please leave your number. Please don't say the number real fast at the end after talking slow, or we might not be able to call back. You can bypass the very professional and detailed pleasant greeting message by pressing the # key, but then you won't know the hours for the day.
- The wait is over! We have the MOOG guitar. These represent the first real change in the guitar since the invention of the pick-up. These are available before Christmas and will retail under $3,500 dollars. You probably owe it to yourself to buy at least one. Try it anywhere but please buy one from us.

Who's
who, which is which and what we do
Rob
does repairs and offers sage advice on all matters from violin
care to train avoidance. In his spare time he just sits and stares. He is occasionally invisible.
Lewis
is the tall guy with the pleasant disposition giving lessons all day. Between lessons you may find him in frantic yet, nevertheless, enthusiastic pursuit of the capitalist ideal. He also has an encyclopedic knowledge of our music inventory. Titles from Barenreiter, Mel Bay, Ocean, and Libris Obscura are easily located when he can help.
Lynda
does all the rest. She's usually the one who really knows what's
going on, so if you get an answer from anyone else about the schedule it might be a
good idea to verify it with her. After ten years we put her name on the business cards, please ask her for one.
Tony
is the other one. He isn't as scary as he seems and is always about to leave if he is here at all. Talk
