I'd be curious too. I've got a trip up there in the near future, and wouldn't mind checking out the local scene. I'm hesitant, though, since in my opinion, anything that came out of Seattle in the last 10 years has been crap (Starbucks doesn't count - mmmmm... white chocolate mocha...). Still, I'm willing to keep an open mind. There should be a fair music scene of some sort up there.
How about any really decent, Ibanez-oriented, music stores? (new or used)
