Music Go Round St. Louis Save Money

Music Go Round St. Louis Makes Dollars and Sense

Economy. Economy. Economy.

It’s a daunting word. It’s good and it’s bad. Quite literally. And changing constantly.

One of the credos of Music Go Round St. Louis is to limit the effect the economy has on the ability for people to embrace creating music. Yes, there is a percentage of the populace that doesn’t sweat the economy. But, the majority – ourselves included – need to take heed to the force of the almighty dollar.

That’s where we come in…

Like driving the car off the lot, most musical instruments depreciate as they leave the showroom. Some instruments are instant heirlooms and have enough high-end construction value that they appreciate – but until something is ‘vintage’ AND adored by the masses or promoted by an artist – most pieces are tools. Tools we love, yes. Tools we cherish, yes. But, musical tools nonetheless – and as such those tools should be able to be used by the masses, without taking a second mortgage or selling your first born.

We believe there are great low-cost brands, and great deals to be had when someone else has taken the depreciation hit for you on brands and models at all value points. This is our wheel house. $200 becomes $100. $5000 becomes $3000. At both ends of the fiscal spectrum our buying power and repurposing of loved instruments allows you to save, learn and create. That’s a beautiful thing.

We have people buy from us who tell us things like “I’ve always wanted a Custom Shop Gibson Les Paul” but couldn’t afford a new one, or “my son really wants to learn guitar but $300 is just too much to test the waters.” We’ve solved both those equations – many times over – and hundreds/thousands more.

Save, Learn, Create – trade up, save again. How righteous is that?!

Music Go Round St. Louis makes YOU actual Dollars and Sense.

Pickups – Vary Your Tones!

No, not Chevys, Fords and Dodges. Guitar pickups. Magnets, wire and plastic that make glorious tones by supercharging the single the string vibrations make. Hand, String, Pickup, Electric – GLORY. Those squares and tubular coils on all those instruments are varied and different for various reasons. They offer you differences in clarity, girth, sparkle, fatness, […]

Look At All That Gold!

Cymbals baby! To a drummer – brass is GOLD. And there is certainly a LOT of gold in these hills… We’ve had drummers from all over who have been to some of the biggest drum shops in the US – and they have said our cymbal selection is as good as theirs is – but […]

Keyboards!

We talk about guitars and drums and their associated gear quite a bit. But MGR STL also has an amazing selection of that other stage staple – the KEYBOARD! We often have high end pro rigs like Kurzweil, Roland, Hammond, Korg, Nord, etc. And we filter down to the best intermediate and beginner keyboards as […]

Your First Guitar !

It’s hard to describe the power of a first guitar. (Or any first instrument for that matter.) It is for many, a watershed moment. Joy, anticipation, admiration. So many emotions accompany a musical instrument. And the first one carries just a little more weight. When do you get a first guitar? That’s easy – NOW. […]
