Members Charmless Posted June 14, 2005 Members Share Posted June 14, 2005 I know about Cowtown & (ugh) Ed Roman. Any other places? Cool off-the-strip pawn shops, etc? Thnx! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members corso Posted June 14, 2005 Members Share Posted June 14, 2005 Pawnshops on every corner, but they have it figured out...there are no bargains to be had in them anymore...or at least, rarely....last one that comes to mind, that I saw, was an ADA MP-1 for $75. But you ain't gonna find a Les Paul for $200 or anything like that...they know what they've got, usually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Rasta Shaft Posted June 14, 2005 Members Share Posted June 14, 2005 I was on my way out of Vegas a couple of years ago and just poped in Ed Romans. The people there acted like I just raped their first born. Something about having an apointment? Weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mockingbich Posted June 14, 2005 Members Share Posted June 14, 2005 Don't waste your time at Vegas pawn shops... like the previous guy said there are no deals there There is one more shop called AJ's music in Green Valley. They are a nice little shop with lots of Fender Custom SHop relics and some high end amps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
