What's on the wall
“They keep stocking ridiculously good used and new albums, and my so‑called “adult money” is sprinting out of my wallet every time I walk through the door.”
What players say again and again
“(Spoiler alert it's all good music) Great selection, friendly staff that still leave you to browse in peace unless you need something.”
From the reviews
Great, eclectic collection of LPs. They have a smattering of CDs that they don't appear to organize in any particular fashion, but it's fun to browse to find hidden gems, which they appear to have more than their fair share of. Staff are friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable.
Amazing find! Husband was looking for a place to buy vinyls and I found this gem of a store! Service staff very friendly and helpful! I wanted to find a certain sound and the gal researched online, played options, and help me find new artists. Was so thrilled I brought my husband back same day. Check this place out !
I love this place. The staff is always kind and welcoming. I tend to feel stupid or not cool enough for record stores. Not here!!! Plus they have had a very single Billy Strings record I've ever been searching for! Lots of parking too!!
Very clean and well organized store! Great variety of selection new and used. Will definitely be back! Staff was friendly and courteous.
Selling or trading gear at South Metro Music
South Metro Music comes up for buying and trading used gear — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the trip go better. First, bring the whole package: the case or gig bag, the original tremolo arm or bridge parts, the paperwork if you have it — a complete rig is worth real money more than a bare instrument, and it saves the back-and-forth of "can you bring the case in?" Second, know that trade credit almost always beats the cash offer, usually by a healthy margin — if you're upgrading anyway, price your old gear as a trade against the new one before you take cash. Either way, expect the offer to be below what the gear sells for on the wall; the gap is the store's margin for setup, warranty, and sitting on it until the right buyer walks in.
