Unfortunately, I am forced to sell off part of a collection that I've been building for several years. I have a bunch of guitars (some antique) and a couple of drum sets and various other musical equipment to sell. Can anyone recommend a swap meet, flea market, or antique market in southern California? I would put them on e-bay, but need the money right away. Does anyone know of a place where there would be a market for these type of items? Thanks for your help.
I have an 1888 Lyon & Healey parlor guitar, an nice old Hofner Jazz guitar, a copy of the Gibson Dove(made by Lyle), a couple of Harmony and Silvertones, and an Epiphone "Traveling Wilburys" model. Also a really cool vintage Danelectro 12 string in purple sparkle that I'm not sure I'm ready to part with just yet and a few others that have been in my storage for awhile. I'm hanging on to a few of my favorites, but the rest have to go.

Thanks everyone for your advice. I just checked out the Rose Bowl website and I think I will give it a try this Sunday.
Wish me luck! Thanks again.

You should check out the flea market at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena....Hurry though - it's on this Sunday - hope it's not too late to reserve a spot!

What type of guitars are you trying to sell?
