The instrument market around here is horrible too. No big shops until you reach Leicester or Cambridge, which are at least 40 minute drive away, if not more. Not a big deal really, but unless you have a car, good luck getting there. In the local area there is basically nothing. There's maybe 3 shops, plus another that went under 2 years ago. One of the ones still alive is hella over-priced, while the one I did work experience in - which was good, because it focused on used stuff - had the guy who was keeping it alive pull out, so it had half its stock taken away. I don't know much about the third, but I don't think it's got that great a range.

The used market, though, is unspeakably bad. Marshall MGs. Line 6 Spiders. Cheap £40 acoustics. Squier strats out of starter packs. That's about it really. It's worse for amps than guitars, because you do get the occasional Fender or nice Squier, maybe a Epiphone or Gibson; perhaps an Ibanez or two. Amps though? Just tumbleweed on a dry desert.

Shut up Maps, my state is bigger than your country. I bought all of my gear from a store 180 miles away from where I live.

I feel your pain though.

I can go to the new Guitar Center in Athens in the hopes I would run into Peter Buck, but I think he's the only member of REM that don't still live there.

I know, as I was typing I realised just how little this pokey island is...

Holy necrobump Batman.

I've got a few I'd like to have.

Mesa Mark V
Soldano SLO
EVH 5150 III
Mesa Roadking
Roland JC
Axe FX for everything else.

The instrument market around here is decent. There's a couple of MIJ Jackson Pro's, the odd mid-90's Ibanez, A few nice Gibsons, several old Telecasters and quite a lot of others. There was even a 1988 PRS Custom 24 in one of the stores.

Probably a spambot, but he hasn't spammed yet...
