I suggest two places among the rest:
1. Bras Basa Complex - Swee Lee (medyo mahal), Blackwood (maraming halong used and bnew) and RS Music and Sports ata yung isa, basta malaki with MXR, Ernie Ball and lots of guitar parts

2. Excelsior (tama ba? I forget) - home to several cool places - napakaraming guitars, amps and effects - tulo laway, laglag brip ako dito. malapit ito sa Funan Digital mall.

+1 ulit dito...

Do try Bras Basah complex.... there are about 4 or 5 guitar shops there all on the same floor (2nd or third floor yata). nakabili akong Dunlop wah 2nd hand for 50SGD dun, mejo tago yung shop nito sa they're open until 7pm I think.

From there you can walkabout 15 mins. to peninsula shopping center, basement shops nila dami din guitars... andun yung guitar77 and more

For boutique pedals, guitars and amps, go to EBENEX. Just Google the address.

sobrang layo nito sa city, its located in Roxy Square, in the vicinity of east coast. But those 2 guys who run the shop are uber friendly.

sa lahat sinabi nyo, di nyo nabangit ung Peace Center... tago ito. pero madaming used items na magaganda

dun ko nabili yung Fernandes Revival R8 74 RI copy

dont forget soft.com.sg kung willing kang tumingin ng 2nd hand stuff.

musicdigitalsounds · « **Reply #11 on:** May 18, 2010, 03:03:56 PM »

Bras Basah Complex

vantage428 · « **Reply #12 on:** May 18, 2010, 03:51:27 PM »

I recommend Standard Value http://www.standardvalue.com.sg/?page_id=4 for fender/ibanez guitar and guitar parts. May branch ito sa Peninsula at sa Woodlands. Or CashConverters

Stratzkiboy · « **Reply #13 on:** May 18, 2010, 08:33:31 PM »

1. Sa Basement ng Peninsula plaza, doon panay mura. and magkakadikit mga music shop. how to go: Exit City Hall MRT station then pag tapos pag tanong tanong mo na lang cguro alam naman yun doon.

2. Bras Basah Complex. panay mura rin dito, and magkakalapit dn mga Music Shop. How to go: just Exit Bugis MRT station. Then pagtanong tanong mo na lang ulit. Hint: Katabi lang ng Singapore National Library.

3. City Music

Eto yung mga lagi ko pinupuntahan nung nasa Singapore pa ko.

brader, sa 1, 2, 3, may mga 2nd hand items dun? kung oo, both guitars and effects ba?

nalu · « **Reply #22 on:** May 20, 2010, 10:28:28 AM »

very nice thread guys!

question lang mga sir, if ever nakabili ako ng guitar from any of the destinations na nabanggit dito.
puwede bang hand carry or required na check-in yung guitar?

thanks!

ericbaquiran · « **Reply #23 on:** May 20, 2010, 04:48:34 PM »

Yung Bras Basah Complex malapit lang din sa City Hall MRT kaya dun ka nalang bumaba kung pupuntahan mo both Peninsula/Excelsior tsaka Bras Basah Complex.

http://soft.com.sg/forum/buy-sell/ -> mas mura ang mga 2nd hand dito kesa sa mga nasa stores IMHO.

All brand new bro.. ang alam ko lang na nagbebenta ng secondhand na gamit is Cash Converter, pero usually Amps and Guitar lang binebenta nila, tyka karamihan binebenta doon eh d kilalang brand and crappy pa..
Tama c sir eric mura rn nga mga items sa forum nila.
