| Our guitar & amp department... Northridge Music began life as Village Music in old Fair Oaks in 1967. The founder was Bill Sheehan a former Aerojet engineer. The name was changed when the business was moved to the Northridge Shopping Center on San Juan Avenue and Sunset in Fair Oaks. In early 1972 the business was purchased by Laurie and Joe Teresi. At that time the store was 1500 square feet. The inventory mix was approximately half guitar and related items and half school band instruments. The early concentration was in the school band and the sheet music areas. Laurie was a successful piano teacher with over 50 students and naturally she worked to develop the piano music department. Joe's background had been in public school music so he headed up that part of the business. |

In 1976 the business was moved to a larger space in the same shopping center (2500 square feet). More attention was paid to the guitar department and the percussion departments. During this era, the guitar sales staff was expanded to include Chris Teresi and Melinda (Teresi) Frost who began as a sales clerk and bookkeeper. As the business continued to grow, it became evident that another move would soon be needed. In June of 1981 Northridge Music moved to Citrus Heights; the new location was the corner of San Juan and Greenback Lane. The new store was 3100 square feet. It included a large repair shop as well as 6 teaching studios. This location was expanded to 5200 square feet in 1989. Along the way Greg Burch joined us as a drum teacher and eventually working on the floor. It was during this era that Chris took over as the manager of the guitar and amp departments. We continued to grow and in 1997 we moved into our current building (8000square feet). We currently have 9 teaching Studios; a 1000 square foot sound demonstration room; and an expanded repair department. Northridge Music has been owned and managed by the Teresi family since 1972. We gratefully thank the Sacramento community that has continued to patronize our enterprise and hope that we can continue to justify the confidence you have had in us. |
