GUEST,matt Fingerstyle guitar brands? (25) RE: Fingerstyle guitar brands? 11 Dec 04

I'm a Californian too. If you're around the SF Bay Area, try "Thin Man" which has a great supply of older instruments.

I went there after my GRE to try out vintage guitars, and I found a really nice pre-World War steel-string guitar similar to my classical guitar, but with a traditional pyramid neck. It had a spruce top, and brazillian rosewood sides and back, and it sounded better than many dreadnaughts I've played.

If you don't mind older guitars, that one was a beauty. (I'd have bought if myself if I had the money :(.) It's a small store in Alameda with a suprising supply of great used instruments. If you don't mind looking about, you'll find some great finds.
