After my long layover in NYC this last week . . . I did not go to any "local " or smaller guitar stores in NYC. I did however decide to go to Guitar Center on 14th street.

If music is your hobby and you are in NYC I actually do recommend a visit to this particular Guitar Center. It is a very large store with a great variety of "stuff" for every possible musical interest.

Very many Gibson and Fender vintage guitars for sale - unfortunately most are very expensive. Most cost more than what my Dodge Durango is worth. Fun to look at anyway.
