Thanks to all our customers for your support throughout 2011. We hope you had a fine festive season and we'd love to see you in the shop in 2012.
But if you can't make it to the store, you can buy guitars, banjos, mandolins, ukuleles, lap steels, pretty much anything you can imagine via our online shop.
Any orders over $200 we will send out postage free. We make sure that all instruments are properly set up before they are allowed on our racks so you can be confident that you're buying a quality instrument that plays well and won't need any additional set up work. Should you have particular requirements please call us and we'll be only too happy to discuss these with you. We look forward to your orders.
We had a fine time at the Christmas party at the Old Bar last Sunday. We hope those of you who turned up enjoyed yourselves too. We suspect you did.

It is a monthly session on the first Monday night of the month.Numbers have been building and the night is becoming popular among local bluegrass, country and roots players who want to get together with like minded musicians for some musical fun and a fine night out in a pleasant pub. Everyone is welcome to bring along their instruments and join in. Music kicks off at 7:30pm- 8pm and we finish around 10pm.
NEXT JAM SESSION - Monday 6th February 8pm - Note: No session in January
Gerry and Kim recently visited the Stelling Banjo Works in Heards, Virginia and we'll hear more about this when they return I'm sure.
Geoff Stelling has been making banjos since 1974 and his instruments have always used cutting edge hardware and the finest materials available. Their wedge-fitted pot assembly, for example, gives outstanding purity of tone and power to burn. Geoff still plays each banjo before it's allowed to leave the works. He'll play yours too if you order one from us. For those who want the very best banjo money can buy. The picture at left links to the Stelling page of our catalogue.
