"We don’t want to just sell stuff...we want to create a space for music enthusiasts to come together and pursue their passion of music-making." - Daniel Elliott
Family-owned full service, musical instrument store opened by Daniel Elliott Jr and Stu Herreid in May of 2012. Daniel had already been working on a business plan to open his own music store, while Stu was looking for a new meeting place for the rapidly growing ukulele club he had founded a few years earlier. They decided to join forces and the concept for The Strum Shop was born. Learn More >
"I am absolutely pleased with The Strum Shop! When I called to get information for possible lessons for 3 of my kids, the gentleman on the phone was knowledgeable, friendly and patient with my questions. I have one taking drums with Evan, one taking guitar with Jon, and one taking piano with Julie. I am very pleased! You will not be disappointed shopping or taking lessons!"
- Jo Anna Lujan
"Very friendly staff, and seemingly willing to answer lots of noobie questions my friend had, with patience and smiles. Lots of ukelele, and small selection of guitars, and a few basses, accessories and sheet music, all for very reasonable prices. Wide selection of string sets, you can probably find what you need."
- Aaron Towers
"My special other and I went in yesterday about an hour before close in search of a Ukulele. They have TONS! The Strum Shop ended up having much more of a variety than other stores that I'd visited, and they have competitive prices too! But the one thing that stood out was Dan, the man whom we found out owned the shop! He was INCREDIBLY helpful, answered any and ever question we had, and even took the time to give my S/O advice on building her own Ukulele. Amazing shop, amazing owners, customer for life!"
