Re-Animated Music opened at 1217 NE Ravenna Blvd in the University District, a few blocks from where Trading Musician stood for 33 years before closing in May 2024. The shop is run by former Trading Musician employees and operates on the same buy/sell/trade model — used guitars, basses, amps, keyboards, and gear, with layaway available.
The opening came after a delayed build-out. The team launched a GoFundMe in October 2025 after city permitting and renovation costs doubled their timeline and budget. Hours are daily 11AM–7PM. Phone: (206) 486-7676.
Re-Animated is the closest thing Seattle has to a general-purpose used instrument floor since Trading Musician closed. They occasionally stock used synths and keyboards. For Eurorack and modular specifically, stock is inconsistent; call ahead.
Seattle Channel covered the opening in a short video feature in December 2025.
