The Admiral Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 Hi all I don't know if this qualifies, but I was in NYC last year, and an American friend suggested I take a trip to Bleeker Street in Greenwich Village to check out Matt Umanov's guitar shop. It's an amazing place - and plenty of v.famous players are regulars judging by the photos on the wall - but compared to how you might expect the guys there to be : elitist, arrogant and snooty - they are really friendly, and happy to chat. A great shop, which a few UK retailers could learn from in terms of attitude. It was 2$ to the £ when I was there, and it's a good job the Mrs was with me, or I would have parted with cash! Merry Christmas .... and enjoy.

molan Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 I've been to Matt's a couple of times. Both times I had a wife with me (different one on each occasion!) so all I managed to walk out with was one of these: [url="http://www.umanovguitars.com/store/details.asp?prodid=235&cat=390&path=300,325,390"]http://www.umanovguitars.com/store/details...ath=300,325,390[/url] Nice shop though and reall friendly when I was there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
