Guestroom Records

This place is a treasure trove of awesomeness. OKC’s leader in record store day happenings. Lots of gems decently priced, as well as bargain bin finds that are tons of fun to look through.

This location, along with the one in Norman, are two of my favorite establishments in Oklahoma. Great selection and atmosphere.

I love coming here. As an audiophile, and a disc jockey in a previous life time, it does my soul good to visit this vestige of a place. They carry some of the most thorough and eclectic collection of vinyl records I have ever seen. Also, they have good secondhand equipment that are a steal. I have spent hours here sampling the music, and the guys here really know their stuff. It always a good education just to hear them talk of the history and the stories behind the different recordings. A throwback to how music was enjoyed, explored, and shared before the days on Pandora. Not to mention, there is just something precious and visceral about vinyls.

Great selection and friendly folks working. Love the mass amount of dollar records. I was not disappointed. If you’re in town and love vinyl, this place is a must to go check out. Vinyl, CDs and vintage stereo equipment. Plus the hand painted cover art posters is cool.

Great shop with a ton of records, really organized and friendly staff! They also know cool areas in town so that’s a bonus for visitors. Huge selection, awesome store. I’ll be back next time I’m in OKC!

My favorite local record shop. Their selection is huge, I can spend all day looking through their stock. Every time I have come here looking for something, they have had it. Their prices are amazing, I always find the records I want are priced way lower than everywhere else. The staff here are really knowledgeable and really helpful.

Really nice shop. Prices are reasonable and the clerk friendly. Had a decent selection. I was able to find some pieces my collection was missing. If you’re in the area and a vinyl collector, or just a music lover, I recommend you stop in.

If your into records this is a cool place. The record craze is cool, lots of variety here.

V-​I-​N-​Y-​L!!! I should not have to say anything more than that, but if I must I will say …
A GREAT SELECTION OF OLD AND NEW V-​I-​N-​Y-​L!
For anyone that is a vinyl appreciator that is under the age of 40, this place will satisfy your itch for classic vinyl and newer releases as well. I just bought the new Beck album for Record Store Day and I have been known to go in strictly for classic early 60s albums like The Zombies and The Shangri-​Las as well. It is rare that I cannot find what I am looking for which is a huge plus in my book.
And the last time I stopped in I noticed that they are amassing quite a collection of vintage stereo equipment that makes my heart sing with delight! I have been looking to purchase a vintage set that is in good working condition because anyone who knows the Wall of Sound knows that music should never be listened to through modern speakers.
This record store was ½ of the reason I bought the house I did. Having this place close enough to walk to is a dream come true! Anyone looking to add to their vinyl collection or looking to start one … this is the place to go. You can pick up a long time favorite and maybe something new to tickle your eardrums, reinvigorate your love of music and entice your imagination. The possibilities are enormous and the prices are fair to cheap depending on what you are on the hunt for.

This is the record store of epic proportions! Great Indie selection! Tons of vinyl new and used. I bought 3 lp’s a cd all for about 70 bucks. My dad also found some great used Zeppelin jazz and classic music on vinyl that was in great shape. There is also a local artist who does renditions of famous album covers which cover the walls. I would highly recommend this store to anyone looking for some great music.

It’s the best we have. I still like buying CDs and I don’t like buying online. Guestroom will order anything you want and have it there by Tuesday.
They usually have what I want anyway. My ONLY complaint is they could be a little kinder to Funk and Jazz fans. I’d like to browse a little funk now and then.
But they are nice and don’t tell you you have bad taste in music even if you do.

I judge record stores by my finds, and Guestroom ranks very highly in my book as the place where I bought Eno’s «Another Green World» on vinyl. Needless to say, Guestroom is a great record store. Good and well-​organized selection, low-​key atmosphere, friendly staff, and bonus, a kitty! If you’re in Guestroom and there’s a lady sweet talking with the kitty, that’s probably me. ;)
I especially like that their special ordering is very prompt. If they do not have what you want, they will order it, and the record was there within the week. And the staff are super helpful! I called in one day asking them for recommendations to take my record player to get fixed, and while this is not a service they offer, their guy was able to point me in the right direction.
Vinyl-​heads, Guestroom is definitely for you.

Dollar bin record selection was massive. Super friendly clerk, too! :)

Been coming to Guest Room for a couple years now, and today was my first experience to try and sell some records. This will be the last time.
I was greeted by the middle-​aged guy behind the counter who was on the telephone with what sounded like his boss when he said, «I’m gonna shoot myself in the head, another guy with records just came in». Wow. I’m trying to sell you dirt-​cheap inventory, and I don’t even get a greeting.
After the guy realized there wasn’t much from my record collection to make fun of (a lot of Daft Punk LP’s, M.I.A, flaming lips, shit that actually sells in a store), and remarking, «Wow, some of these are really good.» The guy made the mistake of praising the records, then offering me $ 25 for 40 records.
As soon as I declined his offer, the clerk ignored me and walked away from the register. Super cool bunch of guys. I could care less about how much he offered me, but treating me like a pain in his ass from the get-​go was enough to lose my patronage for life.
Eat a dick swag swag !!!

There’s an old SNL sketch — like, first couple of years of that show — where John Belushi stars as The Man Who Wouldn’t Leave. Visiting the home of some friends who are obviously trying to suggest that it’s time to wrap up the party, Belushi orders pizza, or asks…“hey…do you have any records?”
Horror movie screeching ensues.
No such drama here, but for what it’s worth Guestroom feels like one, kinda — a guestroom, that is – a little cluttered, filled with the haphazard color of someone else’s quirk, and full of fascinating backstory. Of course, throw in scads of indie CDs, and it’s easy to get lost in here. I popped in during a day when I had maybe fifteen minutes to shop and walked with two CDs. And I easily could have burned an entire afternoon. That’s a guestroom that makes staying awhile a pleasure.
No pizza required.

Have you ever seen Empire Records? If that were a real place, it would be called Guestroom Records. It’s called Guestroom because the guys started it in a spare bedroom during college, buying and selling vinyl on the interwebz to get their wax fix. They now move enough music to have opened not one but two stores, and are working on a third. That says a lot in a world where people are more likely to steal music than fork over 13 clams. They’ve got CDs too, and an entire wall of local music. Finally, as far as twenty– and thirty-​something guys who live and breathe music go, these shopkeepers are pretty easygoing and probably won’t freak out on you High Fidelity-​style if you’re not up to date on the latest in local shoegaze – but don’t poke a sleeping bear.

Support indie record stores. Great selection.

just went to guestroom records (FINALLY after three years… im a bad person)
they have a good selection of records! both current artists and your favorite old bands. i think the price is reasonable too. you might be lucky and find a record at a thrift store for 50 cents but its most likely at guestroom records for a reasonable price, so i think its worth it.

24 vintage industrial record LP and EPs (including 4 LPs in the $ 10 to $ 20 range) for just over $ 100! How could I not love this record store? The counter guy was awesome, and since I was shopping for records for a DJ set that I’d been commissioned to do by a client, I think I almost robbed the store. But I was assured that I wasn’t by the staff… I still feel guilty. AND I found 3 records I’d been looking for in the past 15 years that you can’t find ANYWHERE!

I came across this store when i received a record player for Christmas. When i found out that Guestroom Records carried indie vinyls i had to check it out. I was so excited when i went in for the first time. They have so many records and even cover paintings of popular records. One of my favorite things i have to admit is the kitty. I’m not sure if it’s a boy or girl. But when i go in i’m sure to look for it. The little one will even jump up on the counter to thank you for checking out. Such a cutie. They have bands that play there as well. Haven’t had a chance to check that out but i hope to soon.
