ledboots Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 San Francisco, At the time there were only 5 Guitar Centers Nation wide. So at some point they probably had more. I'm trying to track down these guitars to find out how many are still around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was or maybe still is one in San Jose close to the old Highway 17 now Interstate 880 on ramp. I lived in SJ form '68 - '87. Got ripped off by that one several times as a naive youngster.

I wasn't gonna drive to The City when I could drive 15 mins to one. And then I would hit Tower Records in Campbell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
