Welcome to Hobgoblin USA in beautiful Red Wing, Minnesota!
Our unique location at the Stoney End Music Barn serves as the heart of our U.S. operations, handling all incoming goods and shipping out every order across the country.
You'll find our retail store showroom nestled within a spacious and charming barn. This space is alive with music, literally! We're situated directly above the workshop of the Stoney End harp & dulcimer builders, meaning the air is often filled with the sounds of instrument making. Our downstairs workshop is a hive of activity, while the upstairs loft is a lively music venue.
As a Hobgoblin USA franchise, Stoney End Music offers a curated selection of the same high-quality folk and traditional instruments you’d find in Hobgoblin shops in the UK. We work closely with Hobgoblin to provide:
- A broad range of folk, acoustic, and world instruments
- Friendly, knowledgeable staff ready to help you choose the right instrument
- Access to Hobgoblin’s full USA catalog of instruments and accessories
The Stoney End Music Barn is located at the west end of Red Wing, MN, on Hwy 19 just 1 mile off Hwy 61.

We do repairs! We carry out some instrument repair work on site, and can also send instruments to specialist repairers for more complicated work. Repair work undertaken includes ukulele, bouzouki, mandolin and guitar setups and restringing, accordion, melodeon and concertina tuning and repairs, woodwind and brass repairs and maintenance, specialist violin set ups and repairs, bridge and peg fitting, bow rehairs, banjo or drum skin replacement, and much more besides – contact us for information or bring in your instrument for a free, no-obligation quote.
If you're looking to sell a musical instrument then get in touch to see what we can offer you. We buy some instruments outright if the price is right, and we'll consider a trade-in for almost any instrument. We also take lots of instruments on a commission basis, and we're particularly keen to stock instruments by local luthiers and makers. Bring in your unwanted guitars, ukuleles, banjos, concertinas, melodeons, accordions, flutes, woodwind and brass instruments, violins, keyboards and more, and we'll see what we can do for you! If your instrument is bulky or you would need to travel a fair way to get to us, please do contact us by email or phone first so we can let you know whether it's worth bringing in.
We are often able to offer short or long term musical instrument rentals for various types of instrument. If you would like to rent a musical instrument from us, please get in touch to find out how we can help.
By partnering with Hobgoblin, we bring their expertise, variety, and passion for music to our local communities here in the US
