March into spring with these Staff Picks!
Six more weeks of winter is almost up, which means we can all thaw out and dry off from this winter weather in Tucson and start growing as musicians again. Today our staff of musicians, students, parents & teachers share the instruments and accessories that have been putting a spring in their step!
Yamaha Tom Hooten Signature Trumpet Mouthpiece
“This mouthpiece is new to us and it’s INCREDIBLE. Any trumpet player can use this mouthpiece to get a bold, broad, beautiful sound. If it’s good enough for Thomas Hooten (Principal of the Los Angeles Philharmonic) it’s good enough for you. Come try it out before they’re gone!"

ProMark Classic Attack 7A Lacquered Shira Kashi Oak Drumsticks
“These are my favorite sticks. Versatile and a powerful, they feel stronger than a typical 7A stick, due to the higher density of the Japanese oak they’re made from. This allows them to feel nimble and light in the hand, while still packing a powerful punch and forward-weighted feel. A must have for any funk, jazz, pop or rock drummer.”

Yamaha Solid Acoustic Electric Parlor Guitar Vintage Natural
“This is one of the BEST sounding small guitars on the market. I can’t put it down. It’s extremely comfortable to play and packs a big sound for such a little guitar. Comes with a sweet bag too so you can easily take it anywhere with you. "
