    I am interested in buying a:
    
    EPIphone or a GIBSON  EB-2 or EB-2D 
    
    They are semi-acoustic bass guitars, they went out of production
    about 20 years ago.
    
    Does someone in UK have phone numbers of second hand guitar shops.
    
    I live in Geneva and have no idea on how to find these shops.
    
    Thanks in advance.

|     Hi,
    
    Is there anywhere in UK particular ( i.e. London / Reading ) or
    will anyplace do ?
    
    I'm a Brit just over the border from you ( Ferney-Voltaire ) and
    there are a few British guitar mags kicking around my flat I can
    dig out for you if you want.
    
    Dave.

|     Add Andy's Guitar Workshop in Denmark Street London.
    
    Don't know the number. Very friendly and helpful....."if theres
    anything you want to play, take it down. Theres a box of picks over
    there....."
    
    If you can get hold of it the UK paper Melody Maker has lots of
    shop adds with listings and quite a good private "instruments for
    sale" column. (As for the rest of the paper......ug!)
