Any bass stores I need to see? Regular music stores, too. I don't have a car but could take a limo if necessary. I'm downtown, so walking is good, too.

Their selection is terrible, BUT a few days ago I noticed they had a very heavily modified Ric that might amuse you. |

|  | Registered User | | | | I like Fearless Guitars in NE, Old Town in SW, the salesmen @ Apple music are dicks, and the SE Trade Up is fun to see what interesting stuff they might have.
Or you could come to my place and play my Ritter...

| | Total Hyper-Elite Member | | Join Date: May 2000 Location: Groom Lake, NV | | | Made it down to Apple Music. They've got a pretty good selection, and tonnes of guitars, including a $50,000 PRS, that he said he'd let me have for $42,500. I'll pick it up next time I'm up here.
They carry Lakland, Eden, Mesa, Bag End, Orange, and some others. Their stock was a little low because they just wrapped up their end-of-year (fiscal) sale. Nice guys, decent prices. He's got a couple used-in-new-condition Eden D-410XSTs for $695 each. They're in perfect condition, but they're early ones with only the banana plugs (no Neutrik). Good deal, actually.
