Best shops for vintage gear on the East Coast

[bassgrackle]

On Monday I will be driving from NYC to Florence SC. Straight down RT 95. Are there any well know shops with good vintage bass collections along my trip that won’t take me too far off my route?

There are plenty here in NY and NJ but everything is so over priced.

Not unless it's DC or Baltimore. Zero in Southern VA, or anywhere on I-95 in NC. Honestly, down here there aren't even any major metro areas on that highway.

Baltimore wouldn’t be a bad stopping point on my ride. Any recomindations?

Unfortunately, no. Hopefully someone up that way will chime in. I was just breaking the bad news that it's a vintage bass desert down here.

Now, I can probably put you on some good food though.

Food is good too. May help me forget about basses for 3 or 4 minutes.

Everyone sells online. Prices prolly won't very much. Mom and Pop vintage shops know stuff too.

Atomic Music in Beltsville, MD, where 95 runs into the DC Beltway (495). It's a used gear store.
