I don't think I've express my disdain for Guitar Center in a while, so here you go. Feel free to join in on the beat down.

I hate Guitar Center!

It took me 4 hours and 2 trips to pick up a case a friend of mine ordered. Because it wasn't the purchaser picking the case up they tried twice to raise the price on me. I finally had to have my friend call them and straighten the whole thing out. Then they tried it again and when I refused to pay they switched it back to the agreed upon price.

So, let me recap.

I hate Guitar Center!

Translation:


I wanted to break off a little Starless....but they told me that only Free Bird, Sweet Home Alabama, The South's Gonna Do It Again, or Gimmie Three Steps were allowed.

I asked, WTF? not even some Stairway? And this good ol' boy looks at me and goes....this be DA SOUTH and asked if I was a Northerner or Revenuer? As the crowd started to come my way....I quickly started whistling Dixie and stated that Robert E. Lee should be on Mt. Rushmore and I was naming my first born after him.

You know, your comment does make me half want to go down there and knock out a few attempts at Bailey/Frith/Chadbourne covers.

In all honesty, they'd probably just assume you didn't know how to play and give you some weird looks. A few guys might try and give you some condescending advice.

As a guy who works in a music store, I can honestly say you don't give people who play Sweet Home Alabama or Stairway to Heaven badly weird looks. You take their money because your contract says they "asked for it"
