Mona Vale Music

Mona Vale Music Passionate about music. We teach, we participate, we sell instruments & accessories. A local store, with local staff, best advice and price!

Owners Jason Mannell and Gavin Leach both have spent most of their lives on the Northern Beaches playing music in bands in and out of school. Mona Vale Music opened its doors in September of 2004 as a dedicated music shop, recording studio, tuition facility, PA hire and live music production facility. In 2008 we moved into our current premises which offered a bigger retail space and more room for the tuition business to grow. We currently teach several hundred students each week and are highly regarded as the ‘place to go’ for contemporary music lessons. Our store has now grown to provide a huge selection of instruments and
accessories at the best possible price. We pride ourselves on having expert service and support for all that we offer.

Been thinking about a Cole Clark? This one might get you over the line.

The Studio Dreadnought is all-solid timber - spruce top, African mahogany back and sides, so you’re getting a big, warm acoustic sound that should only get better as the timber opens up.

Add the cutaway and Cole Clark PG3 pickup system and you’ve got a guitar you can play at home, take to a gig and hang onto for years.

Made between China and Australia, it’s a more accessible way into a seriously good Cole Clark.

Just landed at MVM.
Come play it 🎸

Before Elvis.
Before Chuck Berry.
Before rock ‘n’ roll even had a name.

There was Sister Rosetta Tharpe.

A woman with an electric guitar, a gospel voice and a guitar sound that would change music.

The Godmother of Rock ‘n’ Roll.

Her legacy is a reminder that women have always been at the heart of music history, breaking barriers, creating new sounds and inspiring generations to follow.

To every woman finding her voice, picking up an instrument or stepping onto a stage: there is a place for you here. Your sound matters. Your story matters. Keep going. 🎶

Tomorrow’s looking pretty good. 🤘
Avalon Groove Festival is on, and if you’re heading down, keep an eye out for our very own Jas, who’s hitting the stage with his band JLR.

Nothing beats a bit of live music in your own backyard.

See you down there. 🍻

Okay, this is actually pretty clever.

Fender has managed to put a proper recording setup into a seriously compact interface. For a seriously small price $159.

▪️2 x 2, 24-bit / 96 kHz USB-C audio interface.
▪️XLR mic/line combo input with switchable +48V phantom power.
▪️Dedicated TS instrument input for guitar or bass

And the list goes on.
Basically, you’re getting the stuff you actually need for quality recording without the big studio setup.

Are electronic drums good for beginners? 🥁

Absolutely, especially when the rest of the house doesn’t want to learn drums too.

The Carlsbro CSD15M Mesh Electronic Drum Kit is a great first kit for learning and practising at home. Mesh heads give a more natural playing feel, while headphones mean they can put in the hours without taking over the house.

Compact enough for a bedroom. Quiet enough for everyone else.

Available at Mona Vale Music on Sydney’s Northern Beaches🤘
