Scayles Music in Edinburgh

What's Hot
Has anyone used their services? Particularly their online and postal service. I was in Edinburgh a few years ago and must have missed seeing this place.

    Not used their postal service but I was in last weekend. They are an Edinburgh institution and I'm confident they won't let you down. Very well laid out shop with good stock...
    What he said. I’ve used them loads & always had great service... with RedDog closing they’re virtually the only guitar shop in the centre now.

    Excellent shop. Last of the small independents in Edinburgh now I think... Varsity Music doesn't really count ;).

    They are within a mile of me, and I'm delighted to have somewhere handy for strings, etc.

    The only caveat I'd add is a good one.  They are still mainly an older fashioned retailer, rather than a web vendor imo. So their website is not always bang up to date with what's moved from the shop floor.  A  phone call will clarify.

    Highly recommended.

    Sad to see that George has sold up, in order to take care of his unwell partner. Hope that Hobgoblin can keep the vibe.
