Off to Cali next week with the family - any last minute suggestions (LA and San Diego) and things to see and do? BTW which LA GC should I venture into... have heard about the one on Sunset, but are any that are better?

The GC on Sunset is the one to check out. I was there in April and there EBMM selection was amazing. At that time they probably had 12-14 rosewood necked BFR's in stock. They even had a few old Stingray's in the vintage room. JOSH

There are a TON of MM basses and about 9 guitars at the Fountain Valley store. (405 Freeway, Euclid exit).

Eric's right, if you are in Orange County that would be a good one to stop by at.

Josh is right!
The vintage room downstairs is amazing! Up on the balcony on the right they used to have a 70's SR natural that if I had the coin I may have picked up.

Oh I forgot to mention, the Fountain Valley store had a rather pristine looking, pre-EB Stingray. '78 or '79 I believe. The price was very high IMO, but still it looked practically new.

Check out GC in West LA if you want to get the opportunity to play a 20th Anniversary BFR SR5 (one of ten built AFAIK). At least they had one two weeks ago. And they also had a few "regular" BFR SR5's.
