Alexandria Music Store (Virginia)

During Christmas break I drove to Alexandria Music Store, knowing its reputation for fine instruments. My fascination for music stores had not waned and I was itching to get back into that magic place of my youth.
​
Another wall of beautifully displayed guitars met my eyes. I planned only to test-play a few. At age eighteen I didn't need permission to take an instrument off the wall and try it out.

You know what's going to happen. The "just take a look" or "just take it for a test drive" often hooks us. How have you gotten hooked? Enjoy re-telling. We all understand!
