Inland Empire's Favorite Music Store!
Family-owned. Music-obsessed. Since 1978.
Styles Music isn’t just a store—it’s a local landmark for musicians, artists, and dreamers across Southern California.
Founded in 1978 in the heart of Pomona, we’ve spent nearly five decades helping people find their sound. What started as a family-run shop with a passion for music has grown into a trusted community hub where creativity thrives and music comes to life.
We serve everyone from first-time players to seasoned pros with a curated selection of instruments, expert advice, and a down-to-earth vibe you won’t find at the big-box stores. Our team doesn’t just sell gear—we play it, live it, and love it.
Whether you’re looking for your first guitar, building your dream rig, or just want to hang out and talk tone, Styles is the place.
Come visit. Hear the history. Feel the energy.
And see why Styles Music has been the Southern California's go-to music shop for over 45 years. Right at the intersection of the Inland Empire, Los Angeles County - just west of Riverside, and just north of Orange!

Our Founder
Lou Styles became a professional musician at 12 years old.
He would go on to tour all over the US with his band Lou Styles and the Stylists from the 1950's well into the 80's.
He opened Styles Music (then called "Sounds and Music Record and Cassette Store") in 1978 with two of his sons, Lou Jr, and Gregg.
Styles Music is still family owned and operated, and continues to serve Southern California's local music scene. Styles is your local full service musical instrument, live sound and recording retailer.
