What are the best Classical Guitar shops in the USA?
I'm hoping to get a decent classical guitar next year and Nashville is NOT the city to find many good classical guitars for sale in shops.
If you were shopping for a good classical, what shops would you visit? |

The Guitar Shop in Washington DC is the nicest classical shop I've visited in the USA. Never been to Spain or South America, but I bet it compares favorably.

Kirkpatrick is a fine gentleman to work with. He always sets up a booth at the guitar festival in my town and I always buy from him because he's so pleasant a man....

Bummer. I haven't been there in 10 years (or more...) I saw the website was still up, so I assumed they were still around. It was a cool place.

The term "best" can mean different things to different people. Best selection? Best brands? Best prices? Best sales people? I would take a day trip to Nashville and visit as many shops as possible, and ask for recommendations. I guarantee they will find you a classical guitar that is high quality, high price, with great customer service.
