🌟 Small Business Supporting Small Business! 🌟

At Maple City Music, we are beyond honored to team up with @coverchargesleeves out of Massachusetts. They reached out to us to help support another small business, and we couldn’t be more grateful.

Not only did they come through with 1,000 premium audiophile record outer sleeves, but their sleeves are $0.05 cheaper per piece than the big guys, and the clarity is far superior to what we were using before.

This is exactly what the vinyl community is all about: quality, collaboration, and supporting one another.

We’ll proudly feature Cover Charge on our website as a collaborator, as this is a partnership built to last for years to come.

Thank you, Cover Charge, for helping us protect and showcase the music we love.
