Yes, they cater to entry level guitar buyers, but most GCs that I have been in do have nicer guitars available. In my local GC, the higher end guitars are on the top racks and locked. If you want to play one, you ask and they get it for you. Even the higher end used guitars are locked in place.
The mom and pop music store in town has their guitars out and unlocked, but they have sales people walking around constantly. If I am in the high end acoustic room, a sales person will "check on me" every 10 minutes or so to see if I need anything. But even the smaller mom and pop store sells more guitars in the sub $500 range than higher end guitars.
