Beirut · All instruments. One passion.

Where the oud meets the amplifier

Two hundred and sixty-eight instruments under one roof — hand-inlaid darbukas and Egyptian ouds beside Fender, Shure and BOSS. Checked on the bench, played before it ships.

The shop

A counter, a bench, and someone who plays

Bob Music sits where two musical worlds overlap. On one wall, hand-inlaid darbukas, riqs and ouds built by makers in Egypt, Syria and Lebanon. On the other, the guitars, microphones and pedals any working band needs on a Friday night.

We do not drop-ship. Everything here has been unboxed, checked and set up by hand — and if it needs a fret dressed or a head tuned before it leaves, that happens first.
