It might depend on where you are staying and if you have a car. Keep in mind that Seattle has some of the worst traffic in the US, so it may take you much longer than you think to get from place to place.
If I only had the time for one stop, I'd choose Dusty Strings, which might swallow your time anyway. If riding the bus, there is a downtown to Fremont line that drops you right outside the front do in 20 minutes. FYI Fremont has a quite a few other cool little boutique (non guitar) stores, and some good eateries. I like the Teriyaki place on the corner, the bistro arund that corner, or the Thai place across the street. As someone said, Mike and Mikes is a short walk away. Trading Musician is in the U-District, by the University of Washington. Mostly lower end with the occasional higher end vintage. Acoustic guitars, electric, mandolins, fiddles, and lots of esoteric stuff comes and goes. I regularly stop in to see what is there. If you need a pedal steel, a mohan veena or an oud, this is where you might find them. Look at their website first.

Yes. They (Intermountain Guitar and Banjo) are curmudgeons. I've watched them chew out folks who wanted to walk in and browse the selection. The shop is full of cased instruments, and shoppers are supposed to know what they want and call ahead about it.
They have told me they are mostly an internet store, so they don't like the walk-in clients. I recommend acoustic music. I visited a couple weeks ago, and the selection is good. Matt Quote:
