Stan Werblin started that great operation about 25-30 years ago, in an old school stroage building on Washington St. in downtown Lansing- right near the LCC and the Capital Bldg.- It is called "Elderly' for the "Vintage" guitars and other stringed instruments, both new and used, they sell and service. They may well be the largest retailer of new Martins in the US of A- not sure.
Elderly started in a very small basement room in East Lansing in about 1972. I doubt that room was more than 12x16 if that. When they outgrew the basement they moved to downtown Lansing.
