MusicRoom Stratford-upon-Avon Stratford MusicRoom is one of the survivors in the retail market place due to their customer loyalty. The shop has changed names a few times but is still in the same place and is now part of "Music Sales Group - UK" which allows better purchasing power to give the customer value for money. Whilst MusicRoom are one of the biggest retailers in sheet music, they have a vast range of electric & acoustic guitars, Strings, amplifiers, drums and keyboards - and they are open Sunday! Obviously a MusicRoom visit should be a first option for people living in the Warwick and Leamington area. One note of caution would be to ensure you have loose change for parking as the same parking conditions apply as in Leamington/Warwick.
