And you thought Guitar Center employee's were idiots, I can't see the blueshirt's product knowledge being any better.....

i will say on a positive note, if it spreads to most of their stores it will be a lot easier on me if i need cables. the closest place (and its not THAT far) to me to get good cables is GC about 30 miles away, whereas BB is a mile away. I think if they keep it simple on not go nuts it may be a good thing to spark interest and to get some of those extras we always need (strings, cables, picks, etc.)

on the other hand if they dont hire the right people and stock the right products it will flop no doubt

I had to laugh when I came across this.
Our lead guitar/ lead singer works at Best Buy HQ here
in the twin cities. I do remember him telling me a few months ago that this was going to happen. I'll have to ask him more about it.

does that mean it will be quieter at guitar center from now on?

 

[Riff Blister]

Yes, maybe quieter at Guitar Center but now you will be listening to some kid butchering "Enter Sandman" while you and the wife are picking out a new washer and drier. :lol:

That's exactly what I was thinking. Accessories is one thing but amps and guitars?................
