Best Place to Buy a Used Bass Guitar and a Vintage Skirt in One Stop

Fanny's House of Music
Named after 1970s all-woman rock band Fanny, this East Side emporium is one-stop shopping—provided that your needs are pretty damn cool. Located in an old Victorian home, Fanny's walls are decorated with album art from the great women of rock: Joan Jett, Debbie Harry, et. al. In one room are vintage Hagstrom, Airline and Teisco guitars, Kustom Tuck 'n Roll amps, vintage record players and knickknacks both whimsical and necessary. In another is a tasteful collection of vintage clothing from a variety of eras. Fanny's also provides instruction on various instruments. "We celebrate women players, but we try to be comfortable for everybody," says co-owner Pamela Cole. "Having clothes you can wear on or off stage is just a new and different way to be full service." Paul V. Griffith
