The Opinion Review

I used to buy music gear for my house back when I had money. I would usually look around locally but could always seem to be able to find a better price at musicians friend…  - Sad but true…

I always thought it would be very weird to buy a guitar online without ever playing it but here I am with 2 of em that I bought at musicians friend …

Oh I had some problems with one of them…A blue acoustic electric. The guts to the electronics fell apart after just a few weeks and it wouldn’t work… I took it to a local shop but they said to simply “cut those guts out and use it as an acoustic only” -thanks buddy…

The guitar plays well but to get in there and fix that electric part seems impossible  as the sound hole is just too small…The parts just were not tightened up enough at the factory… And it is a cheap guitar which is the kind of gear I buy anyways…Cheap stuff… I figure only rock stars can afford $2000 guitars.

For the most part however I seem to have had pretty good luck from Musicians Friend… It’s fun to look around in there at all the goodies…And if you buy regularly they will send you a catalog that you can read like the Sears Wishbook… But hey! I need to start using the gear that I already have…Finish my newest project and post it on my free music website .
