MUSIC STORE – About Us

Music Store - Musikinstrumente aus Köln

Welcome to MUSIC STORE professional

MUSIC STORE Logo

Over 50 years ago, when long hair, loud amplifiers, and the music of rock 'n' roll took the world by storm, MUSIC STORE professional was there to support the fortunes of young, aspiring bands and artists. To this day, the Cologne-based musical instrument wholesaler, founded in 1972, is the number one destination for musical instruments, studio equipment, lighting and stage technology, and everything a musician's heart desires.

What drives us every day is our constant dedication to music, always prioritizing the wishes and needs of all music creators, from bedroom shredders to studio and sound technicians to stadium-filling live acts. We also have a special place in our hearts for early musical education. For decades, we have been working with music schools, general education schools, and kindergartens all over the world to support aspiring musicians on their journey from the first notes to the world's big stages, providing them with the right equipment for every step.

Environmental Protection and Sustainability at MUSIC STORE

Green MUSIC STORE

We see environmental protection as a special task for the future. With new recyclable packaging materials, a large solar system on the roof, and a huge green area with our own apiary and extensive tree population, we can save the atmosphere over 1000 kg of CO² annually.

Our collection point for batteries and electronics collects numerous old devices every year, allowing the harmful substances they contain, such as lead, cadmium, and mercury, to be properly processed according to new regulations, thereby reducing unnecessary environmental impact.
