Best guitar shop in the world?
« on: June 01, 2010, 11:49:44 PM »
My name is FBloke and I have an online guitar browsing problem.  Problem is, I'm running out of good shops to look at.

What are your favourites?

Have a look at Cowtown Guitars in Las Vegas. I passed on the BKP details to them and theirs to Tim and they became dealers. They do vintage so if that's your thing....

Are we talking look-but-don't-touch, or are you looking for places where you might actually sample the merchandise?

Fake?  Does he sell dodgy gear then?  I don't like his opinions and I don't like the look of all those ludicrously blingy high-end custom guitars he sells, but I didn't think he was actually crooked.

Google is your friend. He's renowned for it and he's even ripped off one of my friends for a supposedly vintage instrument. Trouble is he didn't bother changing the serial number on the several others he sold.

He's an odious little dwarf who's got a massive ego complex. BC Rich and MusicMan are not particularly fond of him either.

Google is my friend, but sometimes I think we're too close..... once in a while, it's easier to ask someone who already knows.   :wink:

Anyway, I did do a bit of Googling.  He's even more of an arsehole than I thought.
