This photo was taken at
169 W 48th St.(between 7th Ave & Avenue Of The Americas). I was photographing anything as I waited on my family to shop. Apparently every floor of this building is filled with guitars. They carry ukuleles and banjos also. From the reviews of this place they have some nice guitars but apparently too pushy of a staff (but it is NYC were the rent is high!). There is a good selection of vintage guitars also. If you love guitars it seems you will want to stop in here just to gawk. Yelpers give it a 4 out of 5.
Next door is
Alex Music, the top NYC guitar repair shop. Carlo Greco is partners with his friend, top repairman, Alex Carozza here. Carlo is considered one of the best guitar makers (luthiers) in the world. If these guys cant fix a guitar it cant be fixed.
