Dawsons Music - Manchester
Picking up from last time I headed over to Dawsons after spotting it on the way to dinner the night before.
Everyone is very friendly inside this super clean shop, there were not to many customers about on a Monday afternoon but you can imagine it packed on the weekends. They have a huge range of Fender, Gibson and Epiphone electric’s along the back wall which is quite impressive; though its a bit desensitising seeing so many amazing instruments at once.
By far the best thing about Dawsons is their demo area which is a glass cube that you can take an amp and guitar into to have a play before you buy. Its great for anyone who doesn’t like to play in front of strangers or wants to really hear what is going on with their new rig.
If I had another evening in town I would have shot the building properly in the dark because they keep the lights on and your eye is instantly drawn to the hundreds of guitars hanging on the upper floor…well mine is anyway.
