Cordas Music Instrument Repairs & Rentals has been serving the Trenton area since 1969, bringing over five decades of expertise to musicians throughout New Jersey. Founded by Lou and Joan Cordas, this family-operated repair center stands out for its commitment to quality craftsmanship across a wide range of instruments.

Lou Cordas, a Juilliard graduate who studied string instrument repair and reconstruction at Hofstra University, personally handles all repair work with meticulous attention to detail. His background as a former member of the Greater Trenton Symphony Orchestra and 30 years teaching instrumental music gives him unique insight into what professional and student musicians need from their instruments. The shop excels at vintage guitar work, bringing older instruments back to life with proper setup, fretwork, and structural repairs.

Beyond guitar repair, Cordas Music serves as a vital resource for orchestra and school band instrument support, helping young musicians keep their instruments performance-ready. The 4,000-square-foot facility stocks an impressive inventory of instruments, accessories, and hard-to-find vintage parts. With Lou’s luthier skills and Joan’s expertise as an accomplished violinist, Cordas Music delivers the kind of knowledgeable service that only comes from lifelong musicians who understand their craft.
