Shout out to guitar stores for tolerating our BS like this. I remember being 15 and going to guitar center with no money or intention on buying anything. Just grabbing whatever looked cool off the wall and jamming on the amps. Really helped me nail down what instruments are comfortable for me and gain a somewhat entry level understanding on operating amps/equipment.

Love to see a video about the 10 types of guitar store staff. There’s the confidence destroyer, who demoes his own skill instead of the instrument, then the too busy dude who will get to you when they’ve finished inventorying the picks, or the simply too cool to speak to customers dude who is talking to the other cool store staff and ignoring you, the one who can’t stop saying “dude” or “bro” the condescending git who starts a conversation with barely concealed contempt for your musical choices. List goes on 😂

I was the quiet player guy when i was a kid lol. I hated playing at guitar stores when i was little. As i got older and played with more people and eventually started playing in bands doing birthday parties or just crazy parties or special occasions where people wanted a band to play. I was fine with playing in guitar stores then. That’s about the time I became the pick theif. That’s right everybody it was me and i still have most of them so just come by and point out yours and I’ll give them back.

I'm the dad that loves metal and supporting his 10 year old son in his quest to become a guitar lord. So I go into the store and listen to everything the dudes behind the counter tell me because the only musical history I have was playing drums in concert band and singing in a hard core punk band during the 90s. I already understand I know nothing... but I love everything.

My father played guitar all his adult life (I was his best student) I took him to a guitar store when he was in his late 80s and, true to form, he sat down and wanted to try a few of the axes…I put an ES 335 in his hands and he started playing standards in his Jazzy chord & melody style; head down & oblivious to the crowd gathering around him many of whom probably never heard anyone play like that in such an informal setting; quite a departure from the usual guy making noise as he butchered Whole Lotta Love on the fluorescent green Ibanez; everyone in the shop exploded in applause after he hit his last major 7th glissando; he was pleasantly surprised & humble but did compare the Gibson negatively to his beloved ‘65 Epiphone Casino which is now mine (dad played ‘til he passed @ age 95)

Checking the prices first

This is so accurate I didn’t even laugh, just nodded in a silent solidarity for everyone who’s still working in musical instrument retail. Some days I miss that job but more often than not, I don’t.

I probably took "shy guitar" guy to the another level. I'd researched the crap out of various guitar models online, watch KZreads, etc. Then go to the store and play one tab riff and one chord riff. If I didn't like it, I'd go home and repeat the process until I found one that did what I expected both in sound and comfort. Then I'd ask store to check out, inquire about the additional cost for guitar case, and go on my way. The entire experience would be In an out within 15 min. Being in stores like this around actual good guitarists can be intimidating. So I try to go in and out as quickly as possible. Exactly what I did with my most recent guitar purchase. I have not been back for about 5 years since the guitar still sounds great and is decently maintained.

Hillarious video. I remember stores where banners on the wall quoted "No Stairway to heaven, No Smoke on the Water" and more. I walked into a specialized Bass Guitar Store in Frankfurt once, just to see what they caried. Two guys were having a Blues session and the staff clearly had a difficult time. They had a Status Bass on display with the usual Traee Elliot Stack sitting right beside it. Asked if I could have a go with the Status, to which they happily agreed. Some Mark King Lines later the Blues Session was over. Staff was very happy and me as well, having been able to at least have a go with the Bass of my dreams. 😀

I remember buying a Squire Bullet Strat to take apart and make a new guitar out of, and the guy who was helping me out was like "Do you want to play it to make sure you like it?" And I was like "Nah, it's good." (Plus, I've already bought one before.) After I bought it, he let me know I had free tune-ups for a year. Which, I guess was good to know, in case I screwed up building my own guitar.

I wish guitar stores (or any store dedicated to a hobby) we're more friendly to begginers. They always treat you like you're not welcome there. Whenever you ask for something cheap to start out with they always seem really annoyed, and if you can't play, they judge you. That's why I don't even go to stores like that anymore and just order online.

"The Pick Thief" doesn't actually exist. What you're referring to are the Pick Goblins. They can't be seen because they instantly disappear when you look at them, and their entire purpose in life is to hoard as many picks as possible. Many a guitarist has known the plague that is the Pick Goblins, and the only way to prevent them from stealing all your picks is _to buy more picks._
