I'm on the road a fair amount for my job in mfg. equipment sales and like to stop in to a few of the pawnshops on my route(s) to check out guitar and bass stuff. But as I get more and more into recording, I wouldn't mind checking out any good spots with used pro audio stuff. Any suggestions?

My sales territory stretches from mid-Orange County up to Ventura County and out to Riverside... thank God my company pays for my gas ;)
 
I don't know any pawn shops that specifically specialize is the used pro audio gear, but the ones in Hollywood (like Film City Loan) are always full of gear from the less fortunate.
Also, in the San Fernando Valley, around the intersection of Reseda Bl & Sherman Way are a cluster of pawn shops & thrift shops & secondhand stores where I've found a few things - lots of cheap jewelry and guns, you've gotta look for the audio stuff.
I've also found that many of the remaining mom & pop music stores sell used gear to stay competitive with the coporates, and are willing to deal.
Let us know if you find any winners in your travels!
