Members novascotia18 Posted February 22, 2010 Members Share Posted February 22, 2010 I'm heading to the Big Apple for a week or so, I figured this would be the place to ask if there are any good music shops down there, not so much the guitar centers etc. but more so the one of a kind type store... if that makes sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members broken_sound Posted February 22, 2010 Members Share Posted February 22, 2010 i've only been to NYC a few times, but manny's music has some legit stuff, but to play a guitar someone has to unlock it for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members placebo62 Posted February 22, 2010 Members Share Posted February 22, 2010 www.ludlowguitars.com has some great stuff, but they're a bit expensive. Actually everything in NY is more expensive because of the State tax right? Anyway..I love NY. Have been luckly to spend about 5 weeks there in the past 12 months...dont think I'll be going back any time soon though. Make sure you go here | thespottedpig.com | and have the burger.

I dunno if it was Rogue's but there was a more general-oriented (with synths and stuff) shop on the same side and the had Whirlwind pedals and some interesting stuff. For guitars go to Mandolin Brothers in Staten island, not a single pedal in sight there tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members novascotia18 Posted February 22, 2010 Author Members Share Posted February 22, 2010 i'm half thinking about buying a new head down there if i can find the right deal, let's just say that new york might have a few more high quality buys than nova scotia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members jhamnett Posted February 22, 2010 Members Share Posted February 22, 2010 Was in Hoboken last month and there was a killer small shop on 1st. They had vintage LPs, Jazzys, Marshalls, Ampegs... Need at least $2K to snag a guitar from that shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
