Cave Creek that is... he sells McPhersons and things... bought a Schertler Unico there and showed him an Emerald a bunch of years back when a certain someone was looking for dealers.

That requires many and large rings you must wear whilst playing stuff not worth a crap... and prolly ok to slip in some good crap as well.

Rainbow Guitars in Tucson is also a nice shop.

Rainsong Dealer, also Martin, Taylor, Waterloo. Of course one does have to brave the 3rd world nature of Tucson's street infrastructure to get there.

check out the Musical Instrument Museum in Scottsdale. Great displays of guitars and musicians, plus frequent concerts by people you want to hear.

Dusty Strings is pretty nice (love that neighborhood also), and American Music just up the hill. But I've always been more of an Emerald City Guitars fan. Makes me miss Seattle!

I am doing the same as you are right now, moving not to AZ but from Orange County CA to a place I bought last year at Lake Isabella CA.....but it is in the upper desert at 3000 feet elevation. Very low humidity year round so I sold off 7 of my wood guitars and just bought a Rainsong Smokey hybrid and a CA GX Performer just to see what one would work for my style of play (which isn't all that good). I going with the Rainsong. Good luck with your move to AZ....I lived there for a year some time back and really liked it there.
