Riffster Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 I was in Chicago for a few days over the Labor Day weekend and decided to check out this store. Dang, what a fine place. Full of cool vinatge guitars in a very cool setting. Cool staff too. Even my wife was impressed. If you are ever in Chicago and have the time I would recommend stopping by.

Big Bill Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 Even my wife was impressed. It's makes for a great guitar browsing day when the wife is hip to it. I would have taken advantage of that moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVOL! Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 The staff is cool and I have bought a few pedals from there, but their guitar prices make me nervous. Is there supposed to be massive room to haggle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but prices are generally double the Vintage Guitar Book prices!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riffster Posted September 14, 2010 Author Share Posted September 14, 2010 Did you play anything?!? Did anything "tickle your fancy"? Played stuff out of curiosity, a couple of 1960's Casinos, a 70's Strat and early 70's Les Paul. Like said above the prices are very high on their vintage gear. Is like going to a strip club, have your fun but down go home with the stripper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silenced Fred Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 The staff is cool and I have bought a few pedals from there, but their guitar prices make me nervous. Is there supposed to be massive room to haggle? Yeah +1, I have gone there a couple of times, not sure if I would buy a guitar from them... prices seem really high. Pedals are really cool there, and I love the amps they have. I always love going there, I'm like a kid in a candy shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
