You can tell just by looking into the front widow, that the selection of instruments available in the store is massive. Here you'll find new and second hand instruments at affordable prices. There are prelude alto saxophones that go for around £420 and classical guitars for £49. This is a great place to browse if you are untalented when it comes to music like me or for purchasing instruments for you or children.

Macari's is probably the best musical instrument store around. That is quite a bold statement…read moreconsidering there is about 20 within close proximity. This shop stands out in its location, as it is very close to the musical epicentre of Denmark St., but does not get lost in the main strip of music shops. There is a wide range of guitars, with an acoustic room down stairs, and an electric room up stairs. There is a wide range of percussion and various other music paraphernalia as well. I was looking for a trumpet mute for a Christmas present, and after trying a few other stores, I found it at Macari's. It's the little things like that which separate Macari's from the other stores.

While looking for a electronic music production course in London, I did some research on the…read moreschools that I initially found on the web. 90% of them I immediately decided not to give a chance due to the lack of songs produced by their tutors. The other 10% were the expensive ones and after visting them I realised that they weren't worth the hype at all. When I was almost forgetting about the course, I saw Abstract Source's website and I could not believe that the guy that had produced all those amazing songs was giving lessons, specially with that price. I decided to meet him and I saw that I had finally found the place to be. It was definitely the best choice. I learnt so much things about music production in so little time. The classes were so much fun and full of information. It was a great experience learning and sharing the same passion which is electronic music. Now after finishing this course I can say that I made a really good friend and hopefully a future music partner!!

From the outside, it looks quite small but like a Tardis, it opens out over 2 floors and has many functions. At the front of the shop, you can find all sorts of music-related gifts for that musical person you're buying for, ranging from pencils twisted into treble clefs to models of miniature grand pianos. There are some musical instruments for sale and some contemporary and pop sheet music in the middle section of the shop but it's in the back of the ground floor that you really find the gem. If you're a classical pianist, this section holds a veritable treasure trove of sheet music. Downstairs, there's performance space and space for dedicated publishers. On the notice board, there are lots of adverts for lessons, performances and groups looking for players. You can also shop from Schotts online. Great shop for musicians, especially classical musicians.

It's a small and well packed little shop, on Chalk Farm Rd, worth a stroll from Camden Stables market to go and have a peek.

I was actually heading to another music store on Denmark Street when I stumbled onto Regent Sounds. There I was greeted by Nick Rob and Maya. They were so super helpful as I explained to them that I was looking for something slightly different, maybe a boutique guitar. They let me try several guitars through a variety of amps and pedals to help me find the right guitar. They also help me navigate shipping it back to NYC for a fairly inexpensive price. So let me just sum it up for you if you're looking to buy an instrument. Regents Sounds music store excels with its wide selection of high-quality of mainstream and boutique instruments and accessories, sure to captivate any music lover. The attentive service from Nick Rob and Maya elevates the shopping experience. Their pricing is competitive and I feel that also enhances the store's overall value, for me Regent Sounds remains a top choice for all music enthusiasts seeking top-notch products and service and I'm sure I'll be back on my next visit to London !

I really love this shop, more to look at guitars than purchase guitars. There are some beautiful, rare fenders with big price tags. The shop definitely specialises in high quality instruments. The only problem, which may not be a problem for everyone, is the fact that they don't sell acoustic guitars. The staff are great, and don't mind if you just want to browse.
