Our Faves

For music lovers of every shape and size

Rated this place:

Long & McQuade's has everything for the amateur or professional musician, including a huge rental section for equipment and instruments, but what I love most about Long & McQuade is that unlike Steve's, it caters to every type of musician. Whether you play guitar, keyboards, brass or strings, you'll find it here. (Need a new mouthpiece for your sax? Try before you buy in the practice rooms upstairs.) They also host semi-regular workshops in all genres.

Canadian music retail legacy

Rated this place:

Aspiring beginners and busy professionals are the one who will benefit most from this, Canada’s largest chain of musical instrument retailers.A 30-day return/exchange policy and in-store financing provide the young musician with an opportunity to take home that guitar or drum kit to try without having to think long term, free to focus on learning. In addition, the non-commissioned salespeople are more focused on happy customers than moving product.The busy professional can benefit from the above-mentioned points as well, but will likely appreciate the well-equipped rentals department even more. Whether you need studio gear for a recording project or are outfitting your entire band for a cross Canada tour, L&M will be able to meet your needs.

Music store, Place to kill time

My boyfriend makes me leave my wallet at home before I go there. They have every instrument you could dream of!!!

I could play in their guitar shop for hours. And, when you get bored of one store, you can walk two doors over to the drum/band/mic shop and play some more!
