METAVINYL

Great vinyl record store! Not sure if he’s the owner, but the guy working there has excellent taste in music. He was super kind and let us exchange a Sade vinyl we forgot we had purchased a few days earlier for a Janet Jackson record, which was really appreciated. The shop is very clean, well organized, and easy to browse. Will definitely be back.

Great selection, friendly folks, and a show was just about to happen! Seems like a great community and a passion for the tunes.

A smaller vinyl store but with a lot of variety and options. If you're into vinyls, or just enjoy music, it's a fun place to flick through their boxes and find a new artist of that album you've always been looking for. The staff and friendly and helpful with any questions you may have, and they're a wonderful addition to downtown Santa Cruz!

Longstanding record store that transformed from Metavinyl>Redwood a few years back and I can say that it has only gotten better! You absolutely need to stop by when in Santa Cruz it is within walking distance of many downtown spots. Most importantly the owners keep this shop STACKED with used records for affordable prices. If you are into more rare stuff they got that too! I real specialty is there highlighting of local (greater bay areas) labels/releases as well as shining light on there personal tastes which I think makes for a great record store. If you trust the owners/workers tastes then you know the shop will always be rotating great stuff!

Great staff, sweet shop dog and who doesn’t love a dutch door!? Tolerated my wild children while I attempted to shop for a moment. They have a selection of audio equipment but they ultimately placed an order for a new record player with Bluetooth ror me. I was able to pick it up in the shop with no markup. They let my kids pick a vintage childrens record to take home.
