Brand Name Instruments - Sales
Our goal is to give our customers the best value for their budget. Each year our retail department sends one of our employees to attend a trade show to find the best, most up to date manufacturers and instruments, in terms of quality and affordability. We believe in selling instruments that are high quality while staying within reach of people just discovering their love of music. However, we also carry a selection for serious artists.
To best serve our community, our two locations carry slightly different selections of instruments. Our Brambleton location has a wider selection of electric instruments while our Ashbrook location has a wider selection of acoustic instruments. Both locations carry high quality musical instruments for students and professional musicians from Fender, Selmer, King, Bach, Holton, Amstrong, Glaesel, Scherl & Roth, Leblanc, Vito, Ludwig, Conn, Selmer Paris, Eastman, Hamer, Yamaha, Casio, Suzuki, Korg, Takamine, Gretsch, Buffet Crampon, Ovation, Marshall, Vox, and many more.
The following are some of our fine instruments:
- Guitars by Fender, Squire, Takamine, Ovation, and Hamer
- Yamaha Digital Pianos and Digital Keyboards
- Casio Digial Pianos
- Conn-Selmer brass instruments (cornets, trumpets, French horns, trombones, baritones and tubas)
- Conn-Selmer woodwind instruments (piccolos, flutes, oboes, English horns, bassoons, clarinets, saxophones)
- Conn-Selmer string instruments (violins, violas, cellos and basses)

As a local music store, our goal is to carry the best quality instruments for all levels of learners.
Instrument Repair
We offer repairs for most instruments at both A&A Music locations. However, if there is major damage to the instrument or if the repair is outside the realm of our instrument repair experts' knowledge, we will send the instrument to a trusted team of Luthiers and repair experts. In a situation where we would need to send your instrument out for repair, or if our on-site repair would take longer than a few days, we would give you a loaner instrument so that you or your child would still be able to practice and go to lessons.
