celtic instruments in takoma park maryland

Unlike most music retail websites you’ll visit today, House of Musical Traditions (established in 1972) is a brick and mortar store with real people and real shelves. We take great pride in the instruments and services we offer and do our best to make sure nothing hits the sales floor (or the shipping department) if we wouldn’t play it ourselves.
While our focus is on acoustic, folk and traditional instruments from the US and around the world, we carry “a little bit of everything,” including some electric instruments, pro audio equipment, accessories and books. We can repair almost any kind of instrument, through our wide network of local repair technicians. We also rent instruments for school band and orchestra programs, as well as many folk/acoustic instruments. We offer purchase, trade & consignment for your used instruments, as well as appraisals for insurance or other purposes. Our School of Musical Traditions offers private and group lessons on a wide range of instruments and styles, for all ages.
