Please Help!, Searching for online retailer to buy gear from! |
) for the trouble. After complaining to MF about this, they swore that all my orders from then on out would be problem free. Well, that wasn't the case and after making another order with them, they royally screwed that one up too, so I decided to never use them again, and instead started using Sam Ash.

I would just find a good local shop. I try to stay away from online, Especialy when looking for a guitar. I like to touch the guitar and hear it. I have also found some pretty good deals on e-bay. That's where I got my guitar(of course I tried one out at guitar center first to see if I liked it) my USB interface and my mic. Look for a reputable seller though. My guitar was actually from a pawn shop in Tuscon and had some small setup issues but it plays sweet now.

Don't know about a line of credit, but American Musical Supply has been great to me.. I got a SA gift card for Chistmas and went to my local store to get GP 5. Did'nt even have it in stock so I had them order it. Took two and a half weeks to get!. I thought that was rediculous.
http://www.americanmusical.com/ bought my last guitar from these guys and they even give a 2nd year warranty

Yeah, I'm not going to buy a guitar or about anything else online, without trying it out first. Thing is, online shopping is WAAAAAY cheaper, no taxes, etc. QUOTE (skennington @ Jan 29 2008, 12:03 PM) Don't know about a line of credit, but American Musical Supply has been great to me..

I have had nothing but good experiences with Musicians Friend,
However, you could try zzounds.com - amazingly fast shipping, at least to the east coast sweetwater.com - amazingly personal approach for a web company - you get the same guy every time and he calls you to check each order as you send it in - they are my favorites. -------------------- Check out my Instructor profile
