Guitar / Music Shops in Doha
Hi guys,
Anyone know anywhere where I can get a good quality acoustic guitar here in Doha? I have a trip coming up to Dubai and may be better off getting one there maybe. Or import my Takamine from London.... Would prefer not to spend the cash on the shipping!
Any suggestions welcomed... Thanks a lot!

Badie is ok, but... ...Hi QatarKiwi,
Welcome to Doha. Hope you are settling in.
As far as quality acoustic guitars here in Doha, there is basically nothing to speak of. Modern home has a very basic Yamaha (although I had heard they were going to expand), but the Souq selection is woeful. Al Badie is quite good for gear and amps, some string, but nothing really for acoustic. (Phone number is 442-3554, give them a call if you like) If you are going to Dubai, check out Zak's Electronics near the Post Office in Karama or some of the shop at Fish round-about (taxi's will know these places) Strings are cheaper there than here in Doha and much more selection. Zak's is primarily electric (Fender, Ibanez so on) but they have some nice Fender, Yamaha and Guild acoustic guitars too. I haven't found Takamine anywhere out here, but depending on the airline, most will take a guitar as extra for minor fee. Better to strum your Takimine out here for whatever that fee is, than to pay over the top for a substandard no-name you'll find out here.
Anyway, good luck and let me know what you find. There are a few of us who get together to play semi-regularly, so if your interested, let me know. No one is that great, but we have a good time.
ttyl,
H

Hey there Hannibal ...Thanks a lot for the info, sounds like I may be better off waiting for the Dubai trip.
Would love to meet up for a bit of a play around, Im actually a bass player originally, although well out of practise. Do you guys need some bass support? :-)
Will check out the places you recommended in Dubai, or get a quote for sending my stuff from London over.
Glad to hear that Doha is not a music free zone! What sort of music do you guys play or are into?
Thanks again,
QK
