New Mexico Music Stores

Grandma's Music - Grandma's was founded in 1982 by guitarist Micky Patten. Gradually, the emphasis of the store changed from a guitar shop to a recording and early MIDI equipment store with products from Roland, Ensoniq, Sequential Circuits, Emu Systems and Tascam. In 1984 the name was changed to Grandma's. In February 2004 we moved to our new custom building on Albuquerque’s growing West Side. Our new store has over 15,000 square feet, larger shipping and receiving with a two truck dock, a climate controlled acoustic guitar room, T1 telephone and data lines, a live performance stage with sound and lighting and more space for every department.
