"you want warranty on this Kapoo" keep up the videos

[@joywolfe.]

Guitar Centre once tried to give me $350 for a 6 month old Gibson Les Paul Special that cost $1,100. Ended up selling it on Craigslist for $750.

[@oldGnRrocks1]

why didnt you sell it for more though? guitars dont really lose their value, unless they get dented or slightly damaged.

[@philipottey7723]

Again, Guitar center is like Lamestop for instruments. It's easier to take it to a local music store or a pawn shop to retain what you've paid for. I prefer taking it to church, make a couple cents, and be strongly blessed for it.

[@joywolfe.]

oldGnRrocks1 I needed money fast

[@bang8782]

I just bought a tele there a month ago and the dude was super helpful. usually they're fuckin cocks in there though

[@BroderickProductionz]

We give 60% of what the lowest to mid-priced sold eBay price goes for. Not our fault, just company rules ya feel

[@PrinceRodriguezTV]

When I got my first paycheck and wanted to buy my first guitar at guitar center. They told me the epiphone I was trying buy was a piece of trash and sounded terrible. Because they wanted to sell 13 year old beginner me a $1,300 Gibson SG...

[@philipottey7723]

That's why the luthier perk and ebay can be your friend in cases like these. GC goes by that dreaded commission pay roll like a dealer because they're trying to get rid of their inventory, but generate a small profit to pay these saps a living wage. I'd be fired within a week for BS reasons like telling them the truth/secrets of fixing a broken instrument without busting the bank, guitar lifehacks, and work with the customer's needs instead of throwing random stuff they can't afford/suits their needs just to be on top of the sales board.

[@junkpot17]

This is Guitar Center all the way. They actually have 2 meetings every day on how to sell extended warranties and how to be a complete jerkoff.

[@LeeVai666]

as a former employee i can confirm this. also you lose $ out of your check if you dont sell enough warranties. true story.

[@michaeljenkins9052]

+SofaKingLeet well I was considering applying there, but that's bs, nevermind

When i first got a nice les paul i got the warranty and dropped it second day i had it the only time i ever drop a guitar but they saved me

[@tristanfreides7533]

Tom Morello yup and when it breaks like mine did without any warning have fun paying a specialist to fix it! Also hope your drunk friends don't spill beer on your pickups bud. It's called being a smart responsible instrument owner man, don't be a jack off.

[@swishfish8858]

Warranty isn't an idiot tax, it's a spare tire. I have warranty on all of my electronics, even though I've not once screwed them. There's a first time for everything.

[@BigTechie24]

Tom Morello warranties are a great way to protect against accidents. My rule is pick an amount that you can easily come up with to replace a piece of equipment if it fails, mine is $150, any gear that costs more than that get the warranty. That amount or less no warranty. That simple.

[@philipottey7723]

+Tom Morello Good thing I'm a dollar budget luthier, but WHO IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD WARRANTY PICKS?(picks are for pussies tbh) And warranty's are useless life vests since a company could be under new management and has the power to void/reject the warranty at any time(ask AVGN).

[@thedude3716]

I was at guitar center yesterday and saturday. Four of these things happened.

[@speakingforcrows5227]

You pretty much embodied what annoys me most as a woman. Seriously: either it's the boyfriend thing, I even had someone say: "we have hello Kitty guitars down there". I said: "okay, let me see them". And then proceeded to play Lamb of God, Opeth etc. on that guitar. The guy's face was priceless.

I worked at Guitar Center in Los Angeles.... and this is truly what this place turns you into.... that's the moment when I quit!

[@FiendlyDevil]

+EytschPi42 I worked for one in Oxnard, CA and another in San Antonio, TX. Both sucked royally. The guitar department salesmen were the biggest dicks by far. Egos for miles; pompous, arrogant assholes. I worked in the warehouse. Rat shit all over everything, half eaten guitar cases, sales guys bitching about customers--and management not only allows it, but supports it. And yeah, they actually sold the shitted-up gig bags... Too many reasons to name why that place was a nightmare. It was the most fucked place I ever worked. Thought it would be different at a different store in a different state a thousand miles away... NOPE! Same old bullshit. Same old tool bags.

[@daddyosink4413]

A nonymous I think pretty much all musicians have worked at one at one point, and we all end up quitting for the same reason.... unless you are the reason. Lol. I had rather go to a Mom and Pop Shop and pay more than ever set foot in a GC again. Our local Sam Ash is a really nice store with a good staff, but it hasn't been there long so it hasn't had time to turn into a GC environment yet.

[@daviddylan9097]

Joaquin Gaute Ionce played some random nonsense at a guitar store, and a guy (who’s playing at the store is great) said I did great and I will be fantastic when I’ve fully grown (it was when I was thirteen), but I was a somewhat advanced beginner at the time. I guess it just shows that the customers can be nice, then again, an employee there also saw my playing and liked it, and a cashier helped me with my first Floyd Rose. Might be because I live in Canada.
