Very laid back atmosphere. The guys in there are super friendly and will teach you how to use anything in the store.
Very friendly staff with a wide knowledge of the Moog product line. Visitors are welcome to try all the synthesizers and effects pedals. Free tours available!
Amazing service, awesome equipment, and the largest vintage modular synth wall I have ever seen!
One of the wonders of the modern world. Tell Paul Dr Steve sent ya!
Moog Music has great instruments and a very skillful and prompt staff. I highly recommend it for those looking for high quality products. Rbt.
Phenomenal showroom that s setup actually allows you to play instruments pretty freely. The tours they do are always great and insightful.

Full disclosure, I work here. I will say that I'd be here all the time regardless because I think The Moog Store is one of the coolest synth shops in the world. Come by and get a tour :)
Great experience today! The employee who assisted me, Zach, was extremely cool and helpful!
Fantastic experience being in the legendary home of analog synth-topia. The staff was really great too!
Fantastic tour for free where you are informed about the history of Moog & you also get to walk through the factory floor. You also get to play around with a bunch of the synthesizers at the end.
This is one of the coolest places I've ever visited. The tour guides and other people who work there are so knowledgeable and nice. I highly recommend visiting this place!
Amazing place. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Such a fascinating and creative good vibe. An absolute must visit when in Asheville.
I had no idea Moog was based in Asheville! What a great surprise to find on my roadtrip! Thank you Zach for showing off some of the new products!
We did a factory tour - this place is incredible and I absolutely recommend for anyone who loves music (aka everyone???). Our tour guide was amazing, everyone who worked there was so friendly and the instruments we got to see were absolutely fascinating.
I was delighted with the professionalism, customer service, variety of merchandise for all price points, and with getting to try out high quality equipment that I've only ever seen in videos. We'll be back soon for the factory tour!
The most amazing gift shop, the most amazing tour, the most amazing assembly place. It exceeded every single possible expectation. Paul Gaeta, gave an outstanding tour and the best tutorial on fundamentals of synthesizer that I've ever heard my life. Starting with the Theremin, the Mini-Moog, the journey of Bob Moog and the company. Also a real American made product with employees that clearly take pride in their work. I just love this business and I want to save my money to get a Moog. My step son love the gift I brought home as well.
Cool place to visit. Didn't get to take the tour with covid going on.
If you are in the area, take the free factory tour. Time well spent!
The most fun I've ever had in a store! All the instruments are available to be played. Staff is great. Don't miss this place if you're visiting town.
Definitely worth the visit and free factory tour if you have time. The showroom is setup so you can play around with all the equipment - very cool. And the staff is very knowledgeable and helpful.
Great tour and awesome shop! Paul was knowledgable and personable. Excellent, all around.
This is an inspiring place. Demo a variety of their instruments in their showroom, get informed advice from their friendly staff, and take the free tour of their factory to get even deeper into why this company provokes Asheville pride.
Wonderful place, visually appealing and interesting all the way around.
I am the original outsider,,i am Wild Man GG Johnston on soundcloud.. I specialize in POpt lo fi art...
Great tour and being able to play several instruments was awesome
Even if you don't play, a visit here is worth the trip. Look into a tour of the facility. Amazing music history.
Very nice and professional staff they answered all of my son s questions and were very welcoming. You are allowed to be hands on at this store. Tours are also given.
What a great experience. If you're a fan of music, Moog, or synths in general and find yourself in the Asheville area, you owe it to yourself to visit the storefront and call ahead to take the factory tour. There's so much history and passion here. The staff are friendly and super knowledgeable. You could be a total newbie or a synthesis rocket scientist and they'll treat you with equal respect and dignity. The employees back in the factory are clearly impassioned. And I got a rise out of one of them in the Minimoog section when I pointed out that the rocket launcher option makes total sense from a rock and roll perspective, but gold plating has questionable acoustic value. There's just a good vibe all around. I feel like each employee is participating in music history as they design and put together these famed musical instruments whether for budding bedroom producers or accomplished mega stars. There is pride of product here. Checking out all the gear in the storefront is a revelation. I could spend endless hours on a Minimoog alone, but all the synths you've read about are available for a test drive. There's something to be said for playing around and experimenting with instruments back-to-back to get a feel for their workflow and sound. I thought for sure I'd walk out with a Minitaur for desktop bass duty when I went in, but ended up falling in love with a Mother-32 semi-modular: simple enough to start with, but a hacker's synth at heart, one with its own unique though distinctly Moog voice. Buying the Mother-32 direct from the store and the crew there has been a treasured experience.
Great vibes, God dwells in the hearts of those who work here. Was very happy to buy a Subsequent 36.989 ATA hard case and logo T-shirt. Played on the 16-voice MOOG ONE...and all I can now say is Dave who? JK...but I know the rev2 is NOT my next polysynth! Please pray my first single sells well once released! (Loud Clouds). *Will Smith: "I GOT to get me one of THESE!!!"
The tour of the factory was very interesting. A must see for any fan of synths!
I LOVE my Moog. it's as simple as that. What a superb instrument.
I love Moog and the synthesizer!!! Tours available, great time. Wish I had more $$$$$
Super cool vibe in the store with a great variety of instruments and pedals to play with. I wish they offered tours on Saturday as I was only visiting during a weekend but will definitely be back to play some more!
This place is awesome and shares our name. Employees treated us great.
Did a tour at the factory and it was exceptional! If you re looking for something unique in Asheville, highly recommend a tour! Due to COVID restrictions, we were limited to just being in the showroom but we had a blast. Our tour guide s mini tour was informative and we had plenty of time to play with the instruments. Every question we had, our guide was able to answer. His knowledge was very impressive and he was a super friendly guy. Many thanks!
A fun storefront where you can play with all kinds of MOOG synths, pedals and software. The products they have out for you to demo rotates frequently to keep it interesting. The staff is knowledgable and friendly. They also have some merchandise available as well. A definite stop when you are in Asheville!
I thought this tour was very interesting. I thought it was interesting how they had some instruments out on the floor, so while you are waiting to go on the tour, you can play and listen to the music you are "creating". The man that gave our tour was super nice and provided great information. I thought it was interesting how they show you how each keyboard is made. You do not always get many opportunities to be shown all the steps and factors that go into making these instrument. Watching all the employees work as we took the tour, was very interesting as well, because they seemed like they really enjoyed where they work and what they are doing. I do not know how to play an instrument nor do I have any interest in learning how to play, but it was definitely an experience you do not want to miss out on.
