Tracy’s Tunes has been serving Colchester’s music community since 1994, when founder Tracy started with a single student in a basement studio. What began as a teaching practice quickly evolved into a full-service music shop as Tracy recognized the need for local instrument repair and supplies. Today, the shop handles repairs on most instruments, bringing old guitars and other gear back to working condition with experienced craftsmanship.

The shop’s repair services complement their strong background in music education, giving their guitar techs insight into what players actually need from their instruments. They work on fretwork, setups, and general instrument repair for students and players throughout Connecticut. Beyond guitar repair, Tracy’s Tunes provides comprehensive orchestra and school band instrument support, making them a go-to resource for families and educators in the area.

With over 100 students now taking lessons and a retail selection covering everything from guitar strings to reeds and drumsticks, Tracy’s Tunes maintains its original mission of being a convenient, knowledgeable local resource where musicians can get their instruments serviced without traveling across the state.
