Our Story

Main Street Music is located in Beacon, New York. Owned and operated by acoustic musicians Jacob Bernz and his grammy-winning father David Bernz, Main Street Music opened its doors in October, 2013. The store features quality new, used, vintage and consigned stringed instruments and a wide variety of strings, accessories, art, gifts, CDs and vintage vinyl.  It's a relaxed, low-pressure shop where we encourage visitors to stay a while and try things.  Our store is a few doors down from the recently relocated Town Crier Cafe, one of the east coast's premier acoustic music venues for the past 40 years.  We strongly encourage people to visit both places when they come by.
