Seattle, WA (Tukwilla Store but I'm not entirely sure,...I think it was near a mall)

There is one in Virginia Beach where I grew up and one in Spokane where I currently live. I've been to one in Seattle (Tukwilla I believe) too. I only go to GC in a pinch,...on Sunday when the locally owned ones are closed

They were very similar. Many Fender's and Ibanez. A few Warwick's and Musicman's. The stock was almost the exact same.

All of the ones in San Diego, one in Hollywood, one in Las Vegas, one in Ft. Collins, Co., one in Denver, Co. and one in Colorado Springs, Co. There maybe others but I can't think of them off the top of my head.

I've never been to one. If I ever end up in America I'll be sure to add it to my list of places to visit, which currently includes the Kennedy Space Centre to see a shuttle launch, Sea World to see Orcas and Universal Studios FL to go on the Jaws ride.

Now adding - Guitar Centre to see if it is as bad as all the hype.

I hit 6 here in Florida recently, searching for a Stingray Classic with the nicest neck/fretboard that I could find. I ended up buying at Bass Central

and I think we went to the one in Richmond, but I was not in a state to remember anything that day...I also think I did something involving a synth and making some weird drone noise for about 20 minutes that got us into trouble....or maybe that was a dream...
