SELECTION! Norm has a huge selection of vintage collectible investment grade guitars as well as new and used pro-quality guitars. We also have an excellent selection of beginner/student packages. Norm has stashed guitars for the last 35 years and has an unbelievable array of SUPER CLEAN investment-grade guitars. There are many guitars that Norm has that do not appear on the inventory list or website. These guitars are in storage and are shown by appointment only. If you don’t see something on the website or stock list, it doesn’t mean we don’t have it.
