Why schools choose us
An icon since 1967. We opened our doors in 1967, and we’ve been supplying instruments to Australian schools and musicians all over Australia. That’s 67 years of relationships with the brands you rely on, of teachers putting their trust in us, and getting purchases right the first time.
Staffed by musicians, not call-centre script-readers. Everyone you’ll speak to at Musos Corner actually plays at least one instrument. We’ve lived and breathed performance since our inception and the advice we offer comes from real life experience on stages and in studios all around Australia.
Sharp pricing, no theatre. We understand that schools work to strict budgets which is why our school pricing is built in. You don’t have to call time and again to get the real number. We’re competitive line-by-line, and across all of our products we push to be the most workable quote on the desk.
Out the door fast. Quotes turned around within 24 hours. Stocked items dispatched next day from our local warehouse. Firm delivery dates against every line of every quote, not ASAP or in due course. And if something is on back-order, you’ll know before you raise the purchase order.
Who we help
For music teachers and schools. Whether you’re a Head of Music planning the year’s curriculum, a classroom teacher wrestling with aging instruments, or a Business Manager processing a CAPEX request, we make the procurement side easy so you can get back to teaching. We work with primary schools, secondary schools, independent and Catholic schools and conservatoriums and tertiary music programs across Australia supplying everything from ukeleles to PA systems.
For music parents. If your child’s school has sent home an instrument list, we can help you make sense of it. We stock half and three-quarter sized instruments for kids, and we’ll tell you honestly what’s worth spending on and what isn’t. We can match your school’s exact instrument or accessory requirements, recommend a starter setup, exchange a sized instrument when your child outgrows it, and talk you through care and basic maintenance.
What we supply
Instruments. Classroom-grade through to performance-grade. Acoustic and classical guitars, electric guitars and basses, drum kits and percussion, ukuleles, brass and woodwind (Yamaha, Jupiter), strings, keyboards and pianos, and a deep classroom percussion range (Orff, hand drums, tuned and untuned).
Music technology. Classroom recording studios, portable recorders, podcast and broadcast kits, microphones (dynamic and condenser), studio headphones, MIDI keyboards, audio interfaces, and acoustic treatment for practice rooms.
Live sound and PA. Assembly PAs, performance space rigs, lectern microphones, wireless systems, lighting, and stage monitors. Installation available where required.
Print music and curriculum resources. A deep catalogue of school-ready print music. AMEB syllabus books across grades and instruments, concert band and stage band charts, marching band arrangements, string ensemble
parts, choral works, music theory workbooks, and PVG for classroom use. If a publisher prints it, we can source it.
Educational software and licensing. Authorised education reseller for the platforms schools actually use. Avid (Pro Tools, Sibelius), Steinberg (Cubase, Dorico), Auralia and Musition (ear training and theory), and Native Instruments. Single-seat or lab licensing, with matched hardware where you need it.
Repairs, servicing and restrings. In-house workshop for guitars, basses, brass and woodwind. Restringing, setups, electrical repairs, and warranty work. Instrument collection and return available within practical distance of Newcastle. Post-and-return for the rest of Australia.
