New MI store for Aberdeen

There is still some positive news to be found amid the current spate of closures and shops going bust, with a new music retailer opening in Aberdeen.

RamJam Music, on the city’s Crown Street, opened at the weekend but will initially be focused on pre-owned instruments and repairs. It is being run by Jamie Clafton who has worked in MI retail since 1994, formerly at Bruce Millers.

He said:“It will only be quality second hand equipment we’ll be offering. All items will have been checked, restrung, cleaned, service and come with a warranty. It allows customers to access quality instruments cheaper than usual if they were new – which in the current climate is what people tell us they are looking for.

“A lot of musicians prefer a guitar that has been played-in, loved and has a bit of history and character. Acoustic guitars sound better when they have been played a while and with electric guitars some people prefer the rustic, road worn look and feel.”

As well as selling instruments the team is offering instrument repairs and set ups, full servicing, drum re-skinning and a free restringing service.

The shop also stocks a range of musical accessories, folk instruments, drum kits and effects pedals.

“We’re looking forward to seeing familiar faces that we remember from as far back as the early days in Bruce Miller’s coming through the doors,” Clafton added.

“We’ve found musicians tend to get very loyal to shops and individual staff sometimes – people grow to trust you. We’ve had a good reputation over the years and it’s one we’re hoping to maintain with old customers and build with new ones.

“It’s tough out there in the music trade but we are doing something different here,” he said. “Musically there’s a lot of talent in Aberdeen and we look forward to seeing it come through our doors.
