When I play guitar at home i can play all kinds of stuff perfect, but if i go out to guitar center and they hand me a guitar, i dont know what to play... I just stand there like hmmmm... It happened to me yesterday, i wanted to check out a pod and when the guy hooked it up and handed me the guitar i had no idea what to play...

People let their kids dick around with guitars people mess with them just to be a jerk. There's never a decently set up guitar within 100 feet of guitar center.

Bascially I am planning a trip to miami this fall, I have the intention to come back with at least two guitar!!! A ibanez S series like Herman li (Who is cool byw) LOL LOL and a American Fender Strat. I want to know what you guys think about the guitar center, We don´t really have anything like it in the UK. How big are these things? their prices seem ok but are they poorly set up guitars? do they actually stock a lot of models? do they stock multiple guitar of the same model, or do they give you the thrashed demo guitar lol Jamesito You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

It just happens to be all the way across town though. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

I have been in a few times when there are some TOOLS just sitting around playing guitars like they are supposed to be performing for the rest of us. But it is rare and usually when the store is very busy. I also know, since I bought him a subscription, that we have one member who works there. Calling out UPSman! Tell us some funny stories about people playing the instruments in the store. What is the most played song or licks? You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

I, Being there day to day I learned to tune it out so its not as annoying to me but, to the other customers it can be a little funny yet annoying! There is this guy who comes in like every other day and plays the drums as hard and loud as he can We call him BLASTBEAT and this Old guy comes in and rocks out Elvis and Buddy Holy stuff We call him POPS.

Sometimes, I just suck especially when theres some 13 year old shredding all over the place. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.
