You'd get the best pricing on Interactive brokers since they use trade web and market axess on the backend, Schwab has good pricing on treasuries, other bonds not so much. Fidelity has good pricing on treasuries, and will screw you heavily on other bonds.
By good pricing, I mean the closest price to the actual price the security trades at.
Basically, if you're buying and selling treasuries, any of the guys above will work well. If you want to venture into other bonds, you have a much tougher choice.

Otherwise, brokerage is by far the best options. Buy and sell new issue and secondary, and of course invest in other bonds. Easier, and you can see gains and losses in real time.
0% Balance transfer with a fee of 3% - 5% into a checking account, earn 5.1%, make the minimum payments on the card until your CD matures. Pay off balance on maturity, and make the difference from the financing rate and return on the CD. Interest rate arbitrage.
