These handmade brushes make you want to brush even the cleanest of records.

“I’ve got to give Ramar credit. In one fell swoop it has elevated the prosaic record-cleaning brush into something far beyond what its humble origins ever suggested it could be. Would I buy one? Darn right I would. Extravagant, okay, but relative to the cost of your LP rig and vinyl library, this is one splurge that is more than worth it. A joy to use, Ramar has taken a tedious chore and made pampering a record collection a red-carpet ritual.”

The Ramar Record Brush, designed and handcrafted by Rangel Vasev in Berlin, Germany is another fine example of what happens when an artisan focuses on making the best.
The vinyl record brushes from ramar are characterized by their unique brush trim and aesthetics. Six double rows of carbon fibres and two rows of goat hair are used in elaborate handwork.
Thus our brushes combine the best characteristics of the known brush types. The material properties of the individual components as well as the specific arrangement of the bristle rows ensure excellent dust absorption and dissipation electrostatic charge.
Our products stand for innovation, quality and aesthetics. With great dedication we develop hi-fi accessories with clear lines and attention to detail. We design for people who appreciate craftsmanship.
Our record brushes are made of solid wood. Currently you can choose between three types of wood – walnut, cherry and ash. The surface is oiled. Therefore it is abrasion-resistant and resistant to dirt. Brush handle and case are milled from a single wooden blank. The bristle cover is made of aluminium and coated with electroless nickel. Electroless nickel coatings are exceptionally wear-resistant, offer very high corrosion protection and are conductive.
During the development phase we put the record brush through numerous practical tests. The six double rows with millions of carbon fibres thoroughly feel every groove and are supported by the two rows of goat hair. Whether fine dust or larger dirt particles – the unique mixture of carbon fibres and goat hair carefully removes every particle from the grooves of the record and picks it up safely.

I use the ramar record brush daily and it is one of the finest and most practical record brushes I’ve have ever used. The magnetically attached top cover can be easily locked with the brush and closes after each use to protect the brush from dust accumulation. The ingeniously integrated needle brush also automatically snaps into place in the box provided. Everything about the ramar follows the simple logic of “a place for everything with everything in its place”. I love how everything is well thought out, including natural, high-quality materials.
