Will be in Paris this weekend and staying near Monmatre. Any decent guitar shops nearby ?? I thought there was a large store near Pigalle . Non ? Any advice would be great ! Merci in advance
there are a few good stores near metro Pigalle, such as bass center - www.basscenter.fr They are all in that area.
I have to say.... I've been to Paris and shopping for a bass is about the last thing I'd ever think to do there......
Well, the original poster is from South Wales. . . where I assume there are even fewer music stores. . .
JP's right, California Basses is the biggest shop. But there are a few others just near. Just ask for thoes two streets: ''rue de Douai'' and ''rue Victor Massé'' as many of the Parisian bass/guitar shops are there. That is in the ''Pigalle area'' anyway.
I am going to Paris on July. I want to sell my Tobias there, thought I may get more for it there. Anyone knows a few places that buy used hi-end basses in Paris?
As said, 90% of shops are Rue Massé and Rue de Douai. it used to be the biggest music quarter in Europe with 70+ shops but the internet happened, nowadays there are maybe 20 left.
