I've been to the Manchester GC and it's one of my favorites of that chain. Nice people and great selection of EBMM's both new and used. (not as nice as the DuBaldo people or as good of EBMM selection, but for a GC, quite nice)
I go to Daddys up here in central Mass a lot as I tend to buy used stuff that is off brand to try for a few months, then offload on craigslist. I'm sort of a used guitar F'ing wannabe. (hi Keith)
It's nice to get some validation that a tiny mom and pop shop does have a chance to stand up with the chains. It looks like my side of DuBaldo Domination is gearing up nicely; next year - number one, perhaps? After all, lofty goals never hurt anyone (aside from Icarus).
Even for Icarus, he may have gone down in flames but at least he became famous!
By the way, If I ever see something I really want from your Conecticut store
and since I live in Montreal, would you meet me halfway in NY state?
Just kidding of course. One day I'll do the drive to your famous store and check it out.
