This is a two storey Borders on Santana Row (the bathroom is on the top floor). I love their "paperchase" section for their fabulous collection of journals, photo albums, notebooks, note cards, etc. Their Bargain Books are scattered throughout the store (mostly on the upper level) and offer some great deals! The staff at the info desk is helpful. I usually order from Amazon.

Super San Francisco Bay Area piano dealer and I think they are the oldest family owned dealer. Felt like I was dealing with a family owned store, I met the owner and the owner's sister who seems very nice and then this Chinese guy comes up and says this (the owner) (kiddingly) is my brother.
I had fun buying a piano, how weird is that! I know I got a good deal because I shopped the local dealers and checked the 'Larry Fine'-"Piano Book" and it was then confirmed by the book!
Shop them all, it is the right way to compare, read the Fine - piano book too.

For violinists of all levels, a trip to Kamimoto Stringed Instruments is a real treat. Although they also work with other instruments, violins dominate the place. They are everywhere! There are rows of wonderful old violins that you can pick up and play. It is fun just to go in and try them all!
Kamimoto Strings is fantastic when it comes to service. The did an amazing job with my violin and in repairing my bow.
I was amazed at how much difference having them adjust my bridge made- They are so expert at what they do that they brought out all the depth in my violin's tone. It was just amazing the difference they made in it!

I've only gone into the store once when it first opened at the new location at El Paseo de Saratoga. I wasn't impressed. I went in looking for an Anthem pre/pro to look at and demo. I waited around for 10 minutes and no one asked if I needed any help. So I finally walked up to the counter and asked a few questions. I got yes and no answers plus they wouldn't let me listen to the Anthem unit wanted to look at because it was "not set up yet" (it was in a rack looking like it was hooked up to at least a pair of speakers). I never went back again.

Century Stereo is one of those few, what I would call, semi-boutique home theater/stereo stores that treat their new potential customers well. Every time I've been in there, there has always been someone to greet me and ask if I have any questions. I did sometimes and in each case, they were helpful either answering my question or finding an answer. They get a great rating from me because I had purchased a center channel speaker at one of their open box sales. After inspecting it again at home, I saw that the grill material had a little tear in the corner. Either I missed it or it got torn when putting it back into the box. I called Century a few days later and without question, had placed an order for a new replacement grill. With normal open box/demo sales, the equipment is sold as is and they probably didn't have to order me a new grill, but they did. So I highly recommend them for their service and support.

My adorable niece had a birthday party here and I promised her that I would stay for at least the first 30 minutes.The song lists consist of mostly bubble gum pop songs. There is also an asian song list, as I hear karaoke is more popular in asian cultures. The sound system was loud. I will admit that it was fun mouthing along to Jessica Simpson while watching the hilarious music videos on the screen that were completely unrelated to the song content.
