Guitar Guitar in Glasgow says they're the biggest one in Scotland, I'll probably start there and see how I get on. 👍🏻 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've bought a few guitars from them in the past, one guy is really helpful, can't remember his name. Be prepared to re-mortgage your house if you're buying though, and be prepared to get shafted if you're trading in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
