Welcome to DowntownSounds.com!
Downtown Sounds is a full-service musical instrument retail store founded in 1976 by Joe Blumenthal in Northampton, MA.

Brands include Fender, Yamaha, Pearl, Seagull, Godin, Taylor, Zildjian, LP, Gold Tone, Alesis, Roland, Boss, Tascam and Spector.
In addition, we offer lessons on guitar, bass, drums, piano, and woodwinds by some of the best professional musicians in the Pioneer Valley!
Downtown Sounds is also an excellent repair shop for all string instruments featuring Downtown Lutheries' Owen Davidson and for amplifiers and electronics with Ron Burati.
We regularly buy and sell used instruments, and take trade-ins. The store features a rental-purchase plan which makes it easy to have a quality beginners instrument, and revolving charge accounts for our regular customers. Most important, your satisfaction is guaranteed: Ask about our seven-day refund or exchange policy.
Downtown Sounds also rewards its regular customers with a rebate program, offering 1% back in store credit to those who spend more than $750 per year, and 2% for those whose purchases exceed $1,751 in a year.
