Wunjo Guitars - Denmark Street, London

Wunjos is the most well rounded shop on Denmark street; they have a great selection of electric and acoustic guitars from Fender, Gibson, Gretsch, Rickenbacker, Martin and Guild. Not missing many big names at all. Everyone is always friendly and know their stuff when you ask a hard question.

Rockers - Denmark Street, London

Rockers is one of my favourite shops in Denmark Street, they have loads of high-gain gear and they were also the only place with a Jim Root Telecaster which is the reason Jarrad and I had made the journey into town.

The Olde Town Pickin’ Parlor - Arvada, Colorado

When I was back home in Colorado visiting friends and family in February I took the opportunity to visit one of the independent guitar shops. This is the Olde Town Pickin’ Parlor in Olde Town Arvada. It is a gem of a shop with lovely relaxed and open vibe you would be hard pressed to find back in London. The instruments they have on the wall are absolutely beautiful, well worth popping in for a browse if you play or not.

Angel Music - Denmark Street, London

After being buzzed in from the street and climbing a flight of stairs you are met with the door, above which leads to one of the best music shops in Tin Pan Alley. If you can imagine your front room packed so heavily with vintage guitars that you can hardly move or have anyone around then you know what its like in Angel Music.

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.

Chase Music - Manchester

It is no secret that I love to visit guitar shops; especially the wonderful little independent ones. There is something about the atmosphere of a rough, cramped shop like this that makes them so appealing to me. It must be the collector mentality like a DJ looking for rare vinyl every week in the same bins. (which they are not short of in Manchester either) You just never know what amazing guitar they will have up on the wall. 

Chase Music on Oldham Street is no different; they pride themselves on having the best deals in town. (which is no mean feat being a five minute walk from Dawson’s)
