while we were in claremont for the tour of california, we made a stop at this incredible music shop owned by ben harper's family - the folk music center. the place is packed with a wide array of musical instruments from around the world. while they specialize in stringed folk instruments, there also seems to be an emphasis on instruments that convey a deep sense of cultural identity.
it is definitely worth a stop if you are in claremont.

Thanks! Must check it out...Jim and I met at McCabe's Guitar Shop in Sanra Monica!
Very cool.
Love this photo! The Folk Music Center is a fascinating shop and a great place to see some live music. It's like a store and museum in one.
...just added the Folk Music Center to my list of places to visit one day!
Thanks for the pic & the post.
