Mark Silber's store in Berkeley is The Musical Instrument Exchange (I think). Anyway, he is now handcrafting classical, flamenco, and Hawaiian guitars (he says many Dobro players are turning to Hawaiian guitars for the sweeter, less intrusive sound). The store is on Adeline a block or two north of Ashby, on the east side of the street. Lundberg's Fretted Instruments was, of course, owned by the Lundberg family (a daughter, Katy, was in my English class many seasons ago). --seed
