Musical Instrument Shops and DJ Gear

  • guitar amps
  • Just Music has never let me down yet
  • Just Music.....I just brought a silver mike stand like freddie mercury from there at a really good price.
  • "just music" they have everything including a rather gorgeous shop assistant
  • Just Music all the way!
  • just music by southfields is underrated. not much choice, but if u just wanna mooch they're good. leicester, sheehans, academy of sound, or the one opposite hmv in the shires r all good.
  • Just Music is alright for strings, but if your getting instruments you wanna go to Leicester to go to Academy of Sound.
  • Just Music
  • just music
  • just music leicester road
  • Just music is like the only place. its dead small, but the people are cool and funny, and they can get you anything really.
  • Just Music is a brilliant place i just bought a bass guitar from there and they let me play all of them for an hour or so. Very friendly and helpful so check them out.
  • JUst music, across road from southfields
  • cash converters is the place
  • just music
  • JUST MUSIC the guys are dead nice in there
  • Just Music, best shop in town
  • Just Music is the only one, as far as I know. Ver good though.
  • Just Music on Leicester Road. Friendly but a limited selection. Good for sheet music etc.
  • Just Music, Leicester Road - service a bit to be desired but they can get hold of most things like importing plectrums etc.
  • Theres one up by the posh schools, but apart from that youre hard pushed in Loughborough. Unless you count the 'reputable' electical appliance repair/second hand shop on that housing road on the way to Aldi. Once saw a guitar in the window when i went past on the number 1 bus.
  • Beatroute sadly passed into obscurity some time during the 1990s, but Dave, one-time owner/manager now sings in a strangely appealling duo called Ska-manga. Devotees of the notorious Chris Needham will no doubt be aware that Beatroute appears in "In Bed With Chris Needham" as the location where Manslaughter attempt to do some recording.
  • There used to be a shop called Beatroot which sold guitars etc, maind that was back in 1990
  • Just Music is the only one left to my knowledge. I had my guitar set up there a few years ago, and it's still in almost peak condition now. Well, apart from the fact it's only got three strings left.
  • Come now - let's not forget the imaginatively named "JUST MUSIC" on Leicester Road, just opposite Sputhfields Park. A cracking shop - it's only bad point being the rather peculiar bloke called Tim, who I think is the YTS lad. Anyhow, be careful - he knows more than he appears to, even though he's only a drummer.

Recording Studios, Rehearsal Rooms, PA Hire

  • Tracks, http://www.tracks-studios.co.uk/. It's out near hathern so not technically loughborough but it's where we practice and is pretty good. You get a drumkit, bass amp and free orange juice. It just doesn't get anymore rock and roll.
  • Union, University and Union!
  • Not in Loughborough, nottingham is really good for underground recording studios that don't cost shit load just for a practise.
  • yeah rite in lbra worse than SHEPSHED SHIT HOLE
  • Stayfree is a great place right next to the train station in Leicester, theres nowhere in loughborough though for that kinda equipment.
  • Greg's Music Room, A home based, digital 24 track studio,specialising in solo/duo projects. 3 miles out of Loughborough. Also 1K P.A. hire with engineer.
  • that place near granby

What is Knowhere?

The Knowhere Guide started out as a list of places to skateboard in the UK. It is a compilation of (unedited) information and views supplied by users like yourself. It is not a conventional tourist guide!

In most cases, the information in each section has been submitted by more than one contributor (the credits at the bottom of the page list some, but not all, of the contributors) and some of it dates back to the 1970s.

We make no claims as to the accuracy of the information in the Guide - our only purpose is to provide a forum for users to share their knowledge and opinions. So please keep a large bag of salt handy and be prepared to read between the lines!

If you disagree with a comment, or information is out of date, please submit an update! The contributors come from all walks of life, and their opinions are bound to be subjective, so if your view isn't represented, please speak up and contribute to the balance of the Guide. See below in the 'Have Your Say' section for how to add your voice.

If we have helped you out or made you laugh you can buy us a pint.


Have Your Say...

The Knowhere Guide depends entirely on real users for information. Please feel free to join in.

You can tell us more about Loughborough. This is also the method to use if you want to correct some of the information already here. (But please remember you're not mailing the person who actually wrote whatever-it-is.)

You can use the add an event form to tell us about events happening in Loughborough.

Or, if you'd just like to leave a message for other users of this site, take a look at The Knowhere Board (handy if you're just trying to get in touch with someone).
