Nashville.com lists 340 studios in the Nashville and surrounding area.
Does this source work for you as an answer?

SWITCHBOARD.COM, a directory that allows a user to search within a
specified radius, shows 366 studios within 100 miles of Nashville, 341
studios within 50 miles of Nashville and 322 studios within 25 miles
of Nashville (you can choose your own distances):

Since I can't verify these sources, but I am pretty convinced that
these are the most accurate numbers you will find, I can only show
them to you and ask if you are willing to accept this data as a
sufficient answer.

That doesn't count the private facilities, which probably outnumber
the ones open to the public.
