Inside, Mabu Vinyl looks and smells like an authentic second-hand store should. It’s stacked to the ceiling with used VHS tapes, random posters, loose CD’s, second hand books, and of course, vinyl records. It’s all about the vinyl. As it should be. It’s dark, it’s moody…it’s perfect.

I’ve always loved the atmosphere and vibe one gets when exploring old record shops. its like thumbing through bits if history that managed to escape their proper era. I wrote a post about vinyl collecting recently. I’d love if you took a look.
