Used guitar shops in London (Besides Denmark Street)


Recommended Posts

  • Members

Hey guys!

I also posted this on the EG forum, but no luck.

I'll be in London from Saturday to Tuesday and I'd like to know if there's any cool guitar shops, besides the Denmark street ones.

 

I'd like to find someplace with used Washburns, Hamers, not just Fender & Gibson.

 

If you have any ideas, let me know!

 

Also, any good concerts happening in those days?

 

Thanks!

Hmmm, it's tricky, there aren't that many great second hand places I know of.

 

Denmark street's going to have a lot on offer, I mean you'll find at least three shops with what you want, for your best bet there I'd say go to Wunjo, the acoustics are in the back and they're good people.

 

If you're going to be in that area there's Macari's two minutes up the road. They've got a lot of acoustics, I'm not sure about second hand. The guys in there are utter salesmen, but if you're any good at haggling you could work yourself a deal.

 

There are more places outside central, but it will mean travelling a bit.

Check out Chandler's and Charlie Chandler's Guitar Experience - two different shops ran by two brothers, the latter is a new store after one Chandler fell out with the other, or something.

 

Both are in South-West London:

Both have good used selections and more diverse and unique gear than the usual crappy Denmark Street selection.
