Jackson sellers in NY

[Weezil]

Hey all,
Im going to manhattan for the weekend this friday.
Definitely going down West 48th street (guitar row).
My question is if anyone knows if there is a shop there where Im more likely to find good used gear. Theres a Sam Ash and a GC but I dont usually like going in those. Just didnt know if there was a place with used stuff that specialized in Charvels or Jacksons.
Thanks for any help,
Weez

Sam Ash on 48th St usually has a selection of Jacksons - nothing to write home about... they usually have a PC1, some import RRs neck through and bolt-on. Last I was there, they had all three Warren Charvels.

Check across the street at Manny's for Charvel Pro Mods.

Guitar Center on 14th St usually has a bunch of imports... maybe a USA Soloist every once in a while.

Short of that, no one really "specializes."

the Music Zoo in little neck...outside of manhattan but well worth the trip ...

I was at the Guitar Center on 14th St. a few weeks ago and they have a US SL2H in Metallic Black there. Its towards the back and way up on the rack.

Sam Ash on 48th St. has a really nice Charvel Warren DeMartini model as well.

How about Guitar Asylum?

I was just there last week. Probably the best selection you'll get in nyc, though it's not in Manhattan. If you go, be aware that they have a ton of stuff not on display... Just ask the folks... Hope you can check it out.

Thanks for the heads up, just got back this morning.
Not a whole lot as far as Jacksons/Charvels, Went to Mannys, Rudys, Sam Ash , GC and a mom n pop i dont remember the name of. Saw a Dk2 Pile Of Skulls that looked like a 3rd grader did the airbrushing on for way too much used. Seems like everyone down there is selling vintage Gibsons or Fenders. I did hear from the guys at Mannys that they are closing for good in May. I did pick up a Platinum 650xl when I got home though. (will post pics in a different thread)

Yeah, Manny's has had that up on the wall for ages.
