RE: A guide to Tokyo, Japan for music nerds.
Even the basic secondhand clothing stores and whatnot in Japan have incredible music equipment. I don't know how it all stays in such good condition. Nice post!
I think it is culture based, they value items so much more so keep them in shape?
I think the way 'live houses' work over here helps too. They supply most of, if not all the equipment a band needs to play a show, and the practice studios you can rent here by the hour are the same way. Because of this, I don't think people over here haul their equipment all over the place beating it up, not like in the States anyway.
