Vinyl Pays: Augusta National Buy's Record Shop For $5.35 Million

According to Damon Cline of the Augusta Chronicle, Jay's Music Center's taxable property value is $637,900.

Deal!

For Masters attendees, Jay's is on the corner of Washington and the old Berckmans. During tournament week it's rented out to show off the latest Land Rover's or IZOD shirts while hosting post-round parties. And the site has a fine view of the water tower and new media center.

Not anymore!

Jay’s Music owner Doug Frohman would not discuss terms of the sale, but said it requires his family-owned business to vacate the property “right at the beginning of December.” He said an official agreement to lease or purchase the Piccadilly property has not been reached, but added that he was confident he’ll be able to reopen the business early next year in the former cafeteria property, which has been vacant since closing in September.

“We have to move fairly quickly” Frohman said in a phone interview Monday morning. “It’s not the most ideal situation, but thank goodness we’ll have a roof over our heads.”
