Best Music Stores in Pacific Northwest

[treillw]

I moved to Montana a few years ago. Montana is amazing for a lot of things, but guitar shopping is not one of those and I miss having a lot of great music stores at my disposal. I definitely miss heading to the PRS factory on the weekend as well.

What are the best music stores in the Pacific Northwest? I wouldn't mind driving a few hours to get to a good shop on occasion. Where would you say has the best PRS selection?

There is a store nearby that sells PRS, but they don't have many models in stock, so it's hard to compare pickups and models to know which suits me best.

Thanks!

Where in Montana are you?

Spokane has a vintage shop called River City Guitars. But they almost only carry used (they are a Riggio dealer), so their PRS selection is spotty. It's still a neat little shop. Last weekend they had Carlos Santana's 70s firebird in there.

Here's their website: https://www.rivercityguitars.com/
