Bookmark Archive
These are all the old links from the bookmark database on the old site. I was really missing some of these, so I exported them and am going to put them here until I can figure out how I'm going to get organized. That happens so rarely I'm sure these will be here for quite a long time.

| Classical and Flamenco Guitars by Classical Guitarra | Pretty neat place that makes guitars in Paraguay of all places. If someone is interested in a lower price guitar that is possibly of good quality this might be the place. |
| Rosewood Guitars | Yet another little guitar store. This one is in Seattle. Always fun to look at what is currently out on the market. |

| The Podium | This place is right by the U of MN campus. The people are super friendly and quite knowledgable about guitars. It's also the only place in quite a few miles to carry really nice classicals. Sure Guitar Center might have a few, but they are still from the big names in luthiery and there isn't much variety. The Podium also has quite a bit of sheet music stacked on their walls. Can get lost in there for quite some time. |
