Last time I was up there,maybe 8-9 weeks ago they had 5-6 used USA models. All WAY OVERPRICED and a couple in not great condition. |

Location: Colorado Rocky Mountains | GC was running a big sale over the weekend so I stopped in for a quick look. Passed on everything except a pair of used stage speaker stands for $10 that remain on police hold. Interesting what you find in that place. |

Location: Novi, MI | GC is horrible... They are all about money and trying to sell you the product that makes them the most of it.
I could go in to buy one thing and some pimple faced punk always wants to sell me something else.
Me..."No Chief, I want to buy this one"
Little punk... "But this one is so much nicer and it's only $10 more, but I'll price match it."
Me... "OK, back to square one, I will take the one I picked out first... Ring me up Chachi"
Saw it this weekend, the sales guy sold a crappy guitar to a poor guy for his daughter without letting her even try it. Dumb on the guy for buying it... but the sales guy should know better. I bought ONE guitar from GC, my first one. NEVER again. At my local music store, I try guitars out for about an hour before I talk price, and they know it, don't push me or bug me until I am done test driving this guitar. I also get a free set up and strings, which i never take them up on... I do my own. But it's nice to get good service. They ALWAYS hook me up.
Ok, off the soap box... carry on. |

| You haven't seen a pitiful selection of Ovations until you go into a Daddy's Junky music store. At one time, they had a wall full of cracked top Ovations.
I was there last night to get my dampit, and looked in their acoustic room. They only had two Ovations, and they were new Celebrities.
OTOH, I went into GC earlier this year and got my hands on a used 12 string ME Adamas. It was one of the nicest guitars I've tried, and can see why people love Adamas guitars. I think it went for $2K, something way out of my price range.

Its the only Best Buy in Ohio that has a music deopartment, with a a BIG accoustic room including Ovations, some high end gibsons such as a Humingbird,a J200 and a Songwriter, 4 taylors inlcuding an 814, some low end Martins,Yamahas and Takamines. It also has a wall of electrics, including Fenders, Gibson les pauls, schecters,etc. Basically every guitar that Best Buy has on its website. I bet there will be some deals on Black Friday and after Christmas. |
