Hi Gordo,
Where in Montana? Well, there are plenty of pawn shopsHere's a few: Music Villa (Bozeman), Guitars of Montana (Great Falls), Montana Guitar Shop (Paradise), Morgenroth Music (Missoula), Hansen Music (Billings), Greg Boyd House of Fine Instruments (Missoula), Stringed Instrument Division (Missoula), Electronic Sound and Percussion (Missoula)...of course, Gibson actually makes acoustic guitars in Bozeman (I think they do tours)...Len Waters (Butte), Drum Attic Drums & Guitars (Butte), Piccolo's Music (Helena)...those are the bigger towns, and I don't get around much (Montana's a huge state) so I'm not even sure if they are still all around. If you're going to be travelling around, I would ask the locals about pawn shops that sell guitars (we have one here in Libby that has TONS of guitars, though they're way over-priced) and there seem to be little custom shops in places you'd never expect...hope that helps
