 Re: Fine Musical Instrument(s) Shop I'd use 'instrument' here as it's functioning like an adjective describing the shop.  |

| Re: Fine Musical Instrument(s) Shop No- a shoe shop doesn't just sell one shoe. If the word is normally used in the plural, like 'sports', then we'll use it in the plural, but if it has a common singular form, we use the singular. |
