I've been to 5 of these / bought an early 70s GoldTop LP from Norm and Met Bonnamassa while I was there. Got a pic of him holding my purchase while I held his '59 burst "Carmelita". Was a good day !

My brother and I saw Bob Seger noodling on an old Les Paul @ Elderly Instruments while there shopping for an amp. We didn't acknowledge him or anything. We respected his privacy and let him has his fun without interruption. It was cool to see him.

Carter's Vintage Guitars in Nashville is my favorite shop in the world.
They don't make you feel like you are in trouble for being in there just to look around. They don't pressure you or hound you. And they are always helpful and solid. That being said. You can find anything from a beginner's guitar to some of the most expensive pieces in the state of Tennessee siting there on the shelf waiting for you to give it a test run. S/O to the guys and gals who work that shop.

Great video! Tokyo (Japan) has numerous vintage guitar stores and are amongst the some of the best/biggest, such as Guitar traders Tokyo in Shibuya. Cheers

Cream City in the Milwaukee area, Silver Strings in St Louis. I've seen a few people mention Dave's and Willie's, both great shops. Carter's needs to be higher than 8 just for selection alone.

I understand the bias, but then it makes us question the authenticity of the whole list

That's Arch Hall Jr at the end of the video in B&W ( on the left ). He starred in the 1962 film 'Eegah' along with Richard Keele. He even played that very Fender Bullet guitar in the movie. I just watched Eegah ( MST3K version ) the other day, lol.

I bought 2 guitars from Wildwood Guitars. For new stuff, I highly recommend giving them a call. I love the way my guitars came set up.

These shops pay below market value and sell above market value. Norms is guilty of being the used car dealership of guitars.

The Guitar Repairers in Brisbane Australia is up there. André is a brilliant luthier and John Davis, the proprietor has a knack for finding the most interesting stringed instruments around, and is the go-to person for repairs and set-ups. If you're in Brisbane, you should drop in there sometime.

[Dan.Solo.Chicago]

Chicago Music Exchange. I’ll hype up that place till the day I die. Whenever I have a bad day I go there and it always makes it all better.

How about Jerry's Lefty Guitars in Sarasota, Florida? The best "brick and mortar" guitar store that caters to left handed guitarists in the world!
