Howdy!

So, I'm coming across the pond in a couple of weeks - to New York to be precise, and as you can guess, I'd love to know (if you can help me) what the best Guitar stores to go to are. I've looked on the internet etc, came across Ludlow Guitars, Rivington and others - but do you have any preferences.

I'm looking for a store with great gear, and guys who know what they're talking about..

Thanks!

Hello Ed Mardell,

If your talking New York City, I'll suggest you
head to 48th street on the west side around
7th avenue. You have Manny's Music and a few
other stores around there.

Cheers.
