Family-owned since 1901

Not a guitar store. A Texas institution.

Brook Mays opened in Dallas in 1901 — the same year NAMM was founded — and for three generations the Everitt family has owned and run it. We're the oldest and largest family-owned music company in Texas, built around school band and orchestra, not the retail gear wall.

That heritage shows up where it counts: instruments your director actually approves, a low-price guarantee, rent-to-own that includes maintenance, and the largest band-instrument repair bench in the state to keep every horn playing all year.
