TEDi RECORDS

Buying and selling gently used musical instruments, TEDi RECORDS sits on a Ridgewood block where vinyl hums and gear changes hands daily. Trade a dusty trombone or snag a barely-played guitar in good shape just a few blocks off the M train. This stretch of Himrod Street sees a steady stream of musicians dropping off gear and walking out with something new to practice on.

From pickup flutes to vintage amps, the store supports the neighborhoods’ cycle of sound—no shiny new price tags, just honest used goods that keep playing life’s soundtrack. Buyers browse electric sitars beside restored drum kits, while sellers drop off trumpets and ukuleles for a quick offer. The store’s ever-changing floor shows what’s hot and what’s not among local players.

Drop off a horn or a pedal, or walk out with a Sax that still purrs. Music makers gravitate here for gear that won’t break the bank and won’t collect dust. In Ridgewood’s patchwork of shops, this spot keeps the rhythm rolling, week by week.

Find it at 19-19 Himrod St, Ridgewood, NY 11385 or call (631) 303-7436 to set a visit. Directions are on the map if the train lets you off a stop early.
