Welcome to MSO

Welcome!

Exciting NEWS - Coalition of over 250 Independent Music Merchants forms with merger of IMRA and MSO

(read about it in our Music Industry Blog)

MSO is a collective of independent music dealers. The members represent a broad cross section from the small Mom & Pop store to the larger, full service retailer. Please, look around our site and do not hesitate to contact us. Think of MSO as a combined thousand years of music instrument experience at your beck and call.

Music Store Owners wish to be a positive force in the music industry offering a link between the consumer, the dealer and the manufacturer.

"...additionally, let me add that I am so appreciative of the opportunity to interact with fellow independents…..I feel like I’ve been lost in the desert for 11 years and just run into my tribe!!! What a blessing! It’s so interesting how similar we are….yet also so different! This is a fabulous organization that has the potential to truly make a difference in how we are able to function/thrive/survive in this wonderful business….."

MSO Approved Brands represent the indie friendly ideals that provide both consumer and dealer with great products and service. The independent dealer is the backbone of our industry and the dealer's backbone is the brands they choose to carry.
