“We are honoured to be able to present this experience to continue to enrich our music communities, both near and far,” says Chuck Surack, CEO and founder of Sweetwater. “We have always been a business dedicated to building community. Our goal is to bridge stronger connections between musicians and offer our customers a new central destination where they can experience exactly what Sweetwater is.”
Over 10,000 different items representing more than 1,000 manufacturers are featured in the new space, with thousands of the latest items across all product categories available in spacious showrooms, from audio technology to pro equipment and instruments.
“The music industry is all about connecting, and while we will always be an e-commerce business, we want to ensure our experiences online, and offline in our store, are unmatched,” Surack adds.
