Bluegrass at Young America Music

Once a month the Middle Georgia Bluegrass association converges on YAMS for a big jam - it's a lot of fun. Here are some photos from the April 20011 meeting.  Everyone had a great time playing - and several people took the time to check out YAM's selection of banjos, mandolins, and guitars. YAMS is a dealer for Deering Banjos, Weber Mandolins, and Blueridge guitars - and we keep many more moderately priced instruments in stock as well... so you can find an instrument here that will fit your skill level AND your budget.


















Call the store at  478-474-4264 to see when the next meeting is going to occur!

Drums, Drums, Drums - I think the Drummer is restless!


If you have a drummer in the family - and who doesn't? - you really need to come buy Young America Music on Zebulon Road and check out all the "drum stuff" we have available. Hey, it's Christmas next week! Your drummer needs a practice pad, for instance, so he or she can beat on something OTHER than the furniture.

Another advantage? Practice pads are QUIETER than regular drums!

We also have a variety of cowbells [MORE COWBELL!], sticks, gloves, and miscellaneous stuff that will make your drummer smile.

We're on Zebulon Road in Macon, between Zaxby's and Polly's Restaurants - and two doors down from CVS pharmacy, where they have a nice selection of earplugs!

MiPro MA-705 portable PA system - battery powered!





YAMS has a selection of portable PA systems - some are even battery powered - that sound pretty darn good if the webguy says so himself.. This is one of the bigger units - the MiPro MA-705. As you can see [from the admittedly fuzzy pictures] it is battery powered, yet puts out an amazing 70 watts for over 5 hours of use. It can be table or stand mounted, and can fill a room of up to 500 people.

It has a built-in echo unit for special effects, and a road-ready touch durable housing, and you can plug in an external sound source in addition to the microphone - like a CD player, iPod, whatever!

So come on by Young America Music and take a look at the selection - all of it at the special YAMS "beat the internet guys" pricing.
