Exactly! Dishonesty running rife. The car guy is saving his personal and using up the cars for sale for his own benefit....same with guitars. Shonky biz at this, probably shonky at everything.... A heavy usage discount on these very used by everyone guitars would give them pause! Make them sign some kind of legal disclaimer.... I am taking a guitar I bought brand new a few years ago to my luthier for a setup and fretwork this week - I have hardly played it - it came like that. I should have taken it back. Must have been passed around the shop for a year or 2.....live and learn. BluesKing777. Last edited by BluesKing777; 02-13-2022 at 04:03 PM. |

I'm a tech... work out of my home shop. I'll occasionally take a customer's guitar upstairs to my studio for an evening. Sometimes for the purpose of tracking down a buzz or something work related, but usually just to enjoy playing it or to compare it to my guitars.

BTW, for over 30 years, this shop sold a boatload of great, new, used, and vintage instruments to famous musicians discussed regularly on this forum. Many were repeat customers who stopped in the shop whenever they were in town. A famous performing arts center was around the corner, and it wasn't at all unusual to have three or four guys head from the tour bus straight to the shop. And guess what they did when they were there. They played the instruments! GASP! And the shop still sold the new ones as new.

I know, for a fact, that wood chucks do take chucks of wood home. I know a human who claimed that an alien took her home to the mother ship. I don't know any sex therapists.

out what it needs. I took my Kopp to a little near-by place a few weeks ago so the guy there could lower the action a little. I asked him to play it all he wants. When I got it back it was adjusted pretty well and he said he enjoyed playing it - "that's a nice guitar!" -Mike |
