D’Addario NYXL Strings

We are proud to announce that we are now carrying D'Addario NYXL Guitar Strings! These strings are amazing. Envisioned, perfected, and manufactured by D’Addario in New York, this newly engineered, break-resistant, high-carbon steel core and plain steel alloy delivers a whole new level of freedom, confidence, and power. NYXL’s provide more strength and up to 131% greater tuning stability by utilizing a completely reinvented wire drawing process coupled with a revolutionary “fusion twist” process for the plain steels. The reformulated nickel plated string windings have greater magnetic properties resulting in higher output and enhanced mid-range frequency response for more presence and crunch. Visit Scott Russ Music in Merrick, NY to check them out!

When Is The Best Time To Rent An Instrument?

We are often asked when is the best time to rent an instrument?  Consider renting your instrument during the summer for the best choice of instrument.  The closer you are to school starting, instrument inventory goes down leaving you with fewer instruments to choose from.  In addition, at Scott Russ Music we offer free rentals for the summer with a yearly rental contract.  This is an option that most music stores don't offer.  Visit Scott Russ Music in Merrick, NY for more details.
