Boutique bass shops on Long Island?

Sign in to disble this ad
Can anyone clue me in to the best bass guitar & double bass specialty shops on Long Island? Especially the ones relatively closer to NYC, like in Nassau County?

I might be doing some business out there sometime soon, and would like to know...

Thanks,

MM

I've always wanted to check out The Music Zoo (www.themusiczoo.com) in Little Neck.

Ah... This is the one I was thinking of; couldn't remember the name.

Too bad they're defunct...

Great guys and a great shop...in probably the worst possible location...way way off the beaten path.. if they had a better location that place would have been a huge success....
