msimonson Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 Hello board members, First time posting. I'm going to Los Angeles for a little bit next week. I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions on: 1. Stores where vintage, obscure or unusual instruments/gear are sold (or private collector/dealers) 2. Locations that are particularly nice for recording interesting sounds, perhaps something that is unique to LA. 3. Just general cool things to check out. Anything worth doing. Thanks for your time!

old school Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 Vintage King for sure, also 40 miles east of LA is Folk Music Center in Claremont Ca. Very cool place. http://folkmusiccenter.com/ TCM Hollywood Tour App on Itunes. Old Town Pasadena, and in DTLA you are bound to see a crew filming something. Enjoy.

Jim Feeley Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 The Museum of Jurassic Technology on Venice Blvd in Culver City http://www.mjt.org For background, read Lawrence Weschler's astoundingly fantastic article about the museum: http://people.uncw.edu/laudadion/fall05/spore.html Not to everyone's taste. But unique. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

old school Posted December 1, 2014 Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 Also our sound vendors which are by LA standards, close to each other. Trew, LSC, Sound Dept. are all staffed with nice people and gear. CrewC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
