When I moved to Lakeland a few years ago, I decided I wanted to start a vinyl collection and Jesse Carl Vinyl has been the most vital part! Not only do they have a great selection and so many gems coming into the store weekly, but every visit to the store is a joy.

Family owned store with fair pricing that I’ll definitely be returning too! They’re knowledgeable about current stock and incoming. This small shop is clean and organized well making it easy to find what you’re looking for.
