Nick Rail Music
Nick Rail Music, established in Santa Barbara, California in 1986, is known as California’s premier school music dealer. It caters to both students and professional musicians by providing a wide range of band and orchestral instruments. The store offers an extensive selection of musical products including traditional instruments, guitars, keyboards, sheet music, and more.
In 2019, Nick Rail Music was acquired by Laura Penrose, a local with a music retail and instrument manufacturing background. With a passion for music education, Laura ensures that musicians at all levels have access to high-quality instruments, maintenance services, and supplies. The store's seven locations throughout Southern California are equipped with a variety of accessories, sheet music, and instruments for rent.
Additionally, Penrose Strings, an orchestral strings specialty shop under Nick Rail Music, provides handmade violins, bows, cases, and more. With a resident luthier offering services such as bow rehairs, repairs, and fittings, Penrose Strings continues the legacy of excellent music service. Located in Camarillo, it is a valuable addition to the local music community.
