Walking into in Maroondah Highway Ringwood you would be forgiven for thinking you are in guitar heaven. You probably are, as there seem to be hundreds of guitars on display.




Mainly electric, but many acoustic and classic as well.




An extensive range of top brands, such as Fender, Gibson and Yamaha to just name three.






Stepping over some floor painted piano key, you enter an Aladdin's cave of musical instruments.


Before you is the percussion section, drums cymbals and bongo drums. A customer was trying out his drum talents. I now know why my mother wouldn't let me learn to play the drums when I was teenager.






Keyboards were nearby, as were a good selection of banjos.




Probably the most basic of musical instruments would be the ukulele and there were many of them. Even more basic was the recorder. I asked one of the knowledgeable and friendly staff if they were still available as I recall that in my youth in the 1950s at high school we all had to buy one for our music lessons. They are still available and some schools still teach how to play them.


Apart from the instruments, every musical accessory seemed to be in stock. The list is endless, just look in the background of many of the photos.


Store manager Steve was happy to pose for a photo surrounded by guitars of many colours.


Everything you need to make good music is at Five Star, except talent, but that can be learned with their music lessons.


Repairs are a service available. I have just had a 55 year old acoustic guitar restrung (it was missing four strings) cleaned and tuned. Those lessons are starting to sound attractive.


Whether you are a professional or beginner, you will find all your musical needs at Five Star.
