That's why I like the stores where the bass area is closed off like the acoustics area. Much easier to hear yourself above the guitard/drumtard/keytard/djtard noise.  |

Paraphrasing the old "You don't have to be mad to work here ...." line I said to the guy behind the counter:
"You don't have to be tone deaf to work here, but it helps".
He didn't disagree with me.
Note to all guitar stores - give your staff something to do when things are quiet - tune the guitars that are out on stands!!
