Harry's biggest asset is that, unlike some stores that sell everything from oboes to strobe lights and fog machines, they focus almost exclusively on guitars, basses, amps, and accessories, which means you don't have to wander around the store, guitar in hand, looking for someone who knows what he's doing. The people who work there seem genuinely interested in helping, and I've never felt like they were trying to get me to spend more than was necessary. They carry both new and used equipment, and you can spend a little money, or, if you want to, a lot. You might pay a little more than at the superstores or in the catalogs-although usually, their prices are pretty much in line with everyone else's-but it's definitely worth it to deal with friendly people who know what they're doing.
