Off Topic Going to California...

[Stevie]

I have 4 days in Santa Monica, 3 in Vegas and 3 in Anaheim (Disneyland for my kids), at the tail end of this coming November. Bummer, I've picked a time when the $AUD is in free fall, can't win them all!

Shopping days are limited, so any suggestions where i should go for MM gear would be greatly appreciated. Guitar Centre in Hollywood is already on my list. Where else in the same local?

While in Vegas we will do the Canyon south rim, anyone recommend any tour operators, from what i've seen on the web they all seem to offer the same...

Thanks for any suggestions.

You are "literally" surrounded by Guitar Centers, and countless music stores/dealers!!!

[Stevie]

Hey Now,

Be sure to check out the Guitar Center on the Strip, they have at least 6 EBMM guitars in stock including a ridiculous BFR Bahama Blue Falmed Luke.....and your kids will love M&M World. I will ask about tour operators for you, I have a neighbor (helicopter pilot) who handles the tourism angle so maybe he knows of someone reputable.

Look me up if you would like to get together for a beverage...or to check out my Morse

Might not have to drive as far as hollywood. Theres a new GC in West LA which is closer to santa monica. Think they had a bfr Luke and BFR jp back in June. Maybe a couple others.

Not sure tour group to recommend...but a 45 minute helicopter ride (papillon tours) over the canyon is pretty unbelievable...but not the way too save money unfortunately.

Pack something warm. And a hat. The grand canyon gets cold and windy.

There's a great local shop in Santa Monica called Truetone Music...they always have a few MM guitars & basses on the wall...Santa Monica Blvd. @ 7th st:

Welcome to Truetone Music

And yeah, there's a new GC on Pico Blvd & Westwood Blvd:
