Some of people who work at music/instrument stores.Especially in the town I live.Whenever you get into these shops and you'd wanna ask something or wanna try a guitar etc. they respond quickly 'don't touch,don't touch' or looks at you like you're not wanted here unless you buy something.How the hell am I supposed to know how that guitar sounds without trying it?Im not here to smash it.Should I be Eric Clapton or something to access those tools? And most of these guys speak like they established the Marshall Amps Company or they're the co-founder of Gibson.You can never know anything better than them.No,no you're wrong,that cable you can't use,that pedal isn't like that,too many you don't knows.And Im sure there are many like these in bands,in scene.You can't even talk to these masters of universe.
I know some stores in Japan and U.S they don't go this way.They re very helpful to you and you can try whatever you want as long as you act honest and playing the instrument carefully.I wonder if same in Europe?

Ha!  In the days that I deluded myself that I had some musical ability (and had friends who could actually PLAY) I spent time in several music instrument stores, wondering what instrument might suit me  (turns out I couldn't master any of them, not enough dexterity in my fingers).  You do get some dickheads.  Or,alternatively, some petty decent guys.  I had fun, whatever.  Your thread just reminded me of that Wayne's World clip ('No Stairway?  Denied!') except in the UK it's probably more 'No Smoke On The Water?  Denied!')   ;)

Sidenote, I then decided I'd be a singer, so bought a Shure SM58 mic and proceeded through a couple of bands with what can only be described as Rollins-esque shouty-bullshit.  Not bands that deserve to be heard ever again by the ears of a reasonable listener, but what a lot of fun it was!   :D

This story, today...

A 78-year-old homeowner has been arrested by murder detectives after a suspected burglar he fought with in his own kitchen died of a stab wound.

The pensioner, named locally as Richard Osborn-Brooks, was upstairs asleep with his wife when he was woken by the two men breaking into his suburban home in Hither Green, south-east London last night.

He was forced into his kitchen by one of the men, who was armed with a screwdriver, before a struggle ensued.

The intruder, a 38-year-old man, was left with wounds to his chest and local residents say he collapsed in a neighbouring road and died in hospital.


Arrested for murder?   :o  He should be rewarded.  Anyone tries to break into my home and hurt me... well, I'll do my best to grab the nearest weapon, slit their throat, stamp on their head until it cracks and piss on their dead fuckin' face.

May this fine gentleman be cleared of all charges.  'I believe in justice', etc...

Your post about music store workers/salespeople is so true...even here in the U.S. of Trump.

Something else you didn't touch upon. They do not think you are worthy of high end guitars. I have no idea what you are supposed to look like so they will feel comfortable with you trying out the expensive gear. Those salespeople actually lose out on sales (from me) because of the vibes they give off to customers who don't fit their profile of a high end buyer.

For the record, I do have a number of high end guitars. None purchased in a music store. All online. Better prices and the guy over the phone doesn't judge you like the people at a music store.

Hala (from the Anglo-Saxon word "halh", meaning nook or remote valley), until it was gifted by King Henry II to Welsh Prince David Owen and became known as Halas Owen
