A question about shops in Detroit.

Sign in to disble this ad
I really hope this is the appropriate forum for this.

Next monday or tuesday I plan on making the long drive down to Detroit to pick up a new bass. It's quite the nice bass and while I am down there it would be nice to find a good flightcase or just a good heavy duty hsc for the drive back home as opposed to the gig bag it comes in.

My question is are there any shops down there that carry these? and the closer to Allen Park the better. I don't want to have to drive all the way up to Eastpointe/Roseville if at all necessary.

thanks for the help.

While your there, be sure and stop at Low Down Sound in Ferndale, it's on 9 mile only about 3 miles west of I 75. Their number is 248 546 4773. I'm not sure what they have in cases. But they are Detroits only bass only store, and they have a great selection of basses right now, plus LDS cabs. I'd call all of them before the drive on a flite case. They aren't a real common inventory item for music stores anymore.

LDS is a great little place, and not to be missed.
