Hey Nick, I understand the current model of the shop w/ high-end boutique gear, but what do you see as the future of the AxePalace? Are you going to eventually carry Basses and amps? Hardware? Diversify the guitar line with the likes of Tyler, Thorn, Collings, Trussart, and amps like Headstrong, Dr. Z, Swart...etc? Hollowbody's? Eastman and Peerless seem to be really growing in popularity in the jazz crowd. I know all that is down the road, but just curious because I think the answers to those questions would taylor my list of stuff to check out differently.
For stuff that would fit in with the current line up...
Amps;
Basson Sound - Sold through GC, MF, and SamAsh, but they are Vader-not-Vader style cabs. Worth a look see. Garry Goodman plays through their bass cabs so they can probably handle quite a frequency range.
Bogner
Custom Audio Amplification/Suhr (I see you've got them under the FX section, but dont have any amps).
Diamond Amplification - Tied in with Dean Zalinsky who is a chooch if youve ever talked to him in person...But worth a look.
Fuchs Audio Technology - Viper is the high gain head.
Koch - Supernova is a 5 channel Clean, Crunch, Gain, High Gain, Ultra Gain...I'm curious!![Eek! :eek: :eek:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Since you've got Parker and Washburn USA, are you going to cover Randall then as well?
Soldano
Splawn
THD
I didnt say Conford because I've read from another retailer that the MK50 II's are hit and miss from the manufacturer. And same with reliability with Egnater.

I dont think you're interested with Fender as a company, or want to start carrying / competing with prices on brands that GC and their online shops sell, but the new Charvels are pretty rad.
Heritage - If you want to carry a Gibson style line, but not deal with them, this is the way to go.
Suhr
Pickups;
APC Pickups
Jason Lollar - These dont really fit the shop so far, but he makes a low wind 7 string pickup that has my attention.
CAA/Suhr again.
Hardware;
Ever thought about becoming an All-Parts dealer just to get Tremol-No's? You could add on an installation service.
Sperzel - I love em' and they come in a bazillion rad colours too.
