History
Established in 1986.
Nick Rail Music, established in Santa Barbara, California in 1986, is first and foremost a band and orchestral dealer, catering to both the school market and the private or professional musician. Our second store, Nick Rail Music/Agoura Hills opened in 1998, followed by stores in Santa Clarita and Redlands. In 2006, we purchased Musicraft, a longstanding band & orchestra store in San Diego. Our Bakersfield store is the latest addition. We are the largest Yamaha band instrument dealer in the state, with franchises for virtually all other major name brands. Our percussion department covers concert, marching and drum set; we also carry acoustic guitars, electric guitars and basses, portable keyboards and related products. Our stores offer accessories for all departments; our sheet music department specializes in instrument methods and jazz. Our 6 repair shops expertly service thousands of instruments annually for school districts, individual customers and professional players alike.
