OMFG American Music has fucking amazing service!

I drove around earlier today to look at amps for my new guitar, and this awesome girl (with cute shoes) helped me out. I ended up leaving with a nice $100 used Fender amp a $25 audio cable and a $5 adaptor. She gave me all of it for ~$90 after tax.

I went home and cranked the amp up. Turns out it had a problem with cutting out at higher volumes. Bummer.

So I took it back. The guy I originally bought my Ibanez Gio electric guitar from tested the amp, determined it wasn't something they could easily fix, and so gave me this beast of an amp that was $150 used instead. It's way fancier than the Fender and sounds great.

The girl from earlier also apologized a bunch and ended up chatting with my girlfriend and I for a bit before we left.

So, this is one of those "they earned a customer for life" stories. Every time I've gone there, they've been great and I've left with used gear for like half the sticker price.

It's at 4450 Fremont Ave N, Seattle, WA 98103 if anyone is interested.

Insisting on ordering them in English, and from my tiny local bookshop, means I've only gotten my copy now. Finally!

This weekend you could go to the #BristolHarbourFestival we suppose, if you want to mingle with 200,000 other people, stand in 20-30 minute queues, pay over the odds for food and drink....

โ€ฆor you could stick local and enjoy a quiet drink, grab a bite to eat and enjoy our space - and aircon.
