WOW! What an amazing place! There are all kinds of instruments - some from the 1800’s! Great place... read more
you like old guitars. The collection is a bit mind boggling. There are other instruments too of course, but the guitars really caught my attention. Gibson, Martins, Gretsch, Rickenbacker, Old Tele's and Strats, you name it. If you're in the Carlsbad area and enjoy history, especially musical history, stop by.
P.S. The volunteers at the museum were very enthusiastic and friendly.
This museum is hidden away in an industrial park and has little signage to direct you to it; but it's a fabulous museum, and well worth searching out. Along with the other exhibits are instruments that you're invited to play. Music history, beautiful instruments, and friendly staff.
This little museum is a gem if you or your kids like music. You can see, hear, and play instruments from the late 1800s through the jazz age, rock'n'roll, and post-punk-grunge-reggae current stuff. Everything from ordinary little harmonicas to unique horns, amazing vintage guitars, and gorgeous keyboards. Well worth the little detour and the admission when you're between LA and San Diego.
Tons of experiential points for this place! A great place to learn about instruments and their connection to the people and the tools of the music industry. I am a music teacher- Looking forward to returning!
different museum. It covers musical instruments. Some hands on others interactive. We dropped in on a whim and spent 2 hours there. Fun
My teenage son and I spent about an hour and half here. The place is small but had some interesting hands-on exhibits. My son loves music so this was a nice place to visit instead of shopping like the rest of the family. Parking was easy and the entrance fee was reasonable.
