Record stores in Nagoya

Nagoya, Aichi has 11 record stores on the map. That's 11 record shops mapped around Nagoya. Every shop grades and prices differently, so the same record can be a bargain in one and a splurge in another — dig everywhere. Bring a want-list, but leave room for the find you didn't know you needed.

This guide covers every record store we could verify in and around Nagoya (within about 40 km), built from OpenStreetMap's community-maintained data. Names you'll run into include グッドフェローズ and 松栄堂楽器, plus 音楽堂. If a record shop's missing from Nagoya's list, it probably just hasn't been mapped yet.

Record digging tips for Nagoya

How the regulars work Nagoya's bins:

• Learn to spot reissues at グッドフェローズ. Reissues are cheaper and often sound great. Originals cost more for the history. Know which you're paying for.
• Bring cash for the small shops at 松栄堂楽器. Some independents prefer it, and a cash offer on a stack can occasionally move the price.
• Check for warps in the shop. Hold the record at eye level and sight along it. Warps that look minor at home look obvious in the store.
• Genre-hop. The best finds are in the sections you don't know. Jazz collectors find gold in the classical bins and vice versa.

Good to know

We searched about 40 km around Nagoya — that covers the town itself plus the surrounding communities you'd reasonably drive to. Listings come from OpenStreetMap, mapped by local volunteers, so a brand-new record store in Nagoya can take a while to appear. Spotted a closure among the 11, or a record store we missed entirely? The map is the source of truth here — one OpenStreetMap edit corrects it for everyone.

We don't list prices or stock — both change by the day. What we list is the where: real shops, verified by real mappers.

If you run one of the 11 listed here and something's wrong — a closure, a move, new hours — the fix is the same: update the shop on OpenStreetMap and the correction flows through to this page on the next daily refresh.
