• Lynn Music in Norfolk Street. Speak to Chris he's a really helpful guy and if they haven't got what you're looking for, he'll make every effort to get it for you.
• I think East Coast Music, Guitar Crazy and Lynn music are the only places to go...
• theres eastcost music home to every instrument u can think of, has drum compartment upstairs and loads of guitar stuff downstairs. Theres guitar crazy for all ya guitar needs and lynn music sells a few things like guitars, keyboards etc.
• East Coast Music! Where Savages used to be but better than savages! I've spent most of what feels like my life in there cos there's loads of guitars so i've never got bored!
• LYNN MUSIC, SAVAGES
• East coast music. john savage is back upstairs. go and say hello to one of the best in the business.
• You lot have all forgotten GUITAR CRAZY!!! Cheapest prices in town and these guys are all pro players, its opposite flames in norfolk street. East coast music are on average about £100 more per guitar than these guys!!!! , it is now running as john savages again!!! with the old guys from the savages shop selling gear again result!!!
• Good ol' East Coast Music has sprung up in the ashes of Savages. Always handy to waste a hour or two trying to persuade Glenn to let you play on his new Hofner bass. I've spent countless free periods in there....maybe that's why i have crap grades!?
• You have John Savages, used to be a big shop, it seems to have downsized recently and is selling just drums. Then you have East Coast Music and Lynn Music, always a bit more friendly to casual musicians, and for stuff other than guitars and drums
• Lynn music. thats about it
• As lead singer/guitarist for Riverhouse I can confidently say there's only 1 music equipment shop - Wisbech Music Centre far superior range of guitars and equipment and definitely the lowest prices.

• John Savages is closing, a piece of Kings Lynn history is coming to an end.
• The small music shop down Norfolk street is good for all kinds of instruments - even pianos.
• SAVAGES AT THE VERY TOP OF NORFOLK STREET
• if youre looking for a drum kit go to john savages.
• Savages is more guitar to Lynn Music's organs and piano's. Go to Lynn Music though, Dave Lilleys not a bad bloke.
• John savages is by far the best musical instrument shop in West Norfolk. It was one of the first shops in the UK to sell the awesome new Mavericks. With celebrity customers featuring Iron Maiden members, Jools Holland, etc.

The Knowhere Guide started out as a list of places to skateboard in the UK. It is a compilation of (unedited) information and views supplied by users like yourself. It is not a conventional tourist guide!

In most cases, the information in each section has been submitted by more than one contributor (the credits at the bottom of the page list some, but not all, of the contributors) and some of it dates back to the 1970s.

We make no claims as to the accuracy of the information in the Guide - our only purpose is to provide a forum for users to share their knowledge and opinions. So please keep a large bag of salt handy and be prepared to read between the lines!

If you disagree with a comment, or information is out of date, please submit an update! The contributors come from all walks of life, and their opinions are bound to be subjective, so if your view isn't represented, please speak up and contribute to the balance of the Guide. See below in the 'Have Your Say' section for how to add your voice.

If we have helped you out or made you laugh you can buy us a pint.
