What you talking about? Working in a guitar store is a great job, easy work, getting to talk about gear with musicians and getting discounts on gear and guitars, isn't too bad really is it, for every person who goes in and plays the same riff over and over there are 10 more people who are great players
I'm no help. I like to go in there, tune the 1st 'e' string down a quarter tone and play "Stairway to Heaven". You really have to try it. The surprise when that first "a sort of flat octave" comes in is pure gold. Just like a melting carnival.

What an absolute disgrace. Imagine treating a guitar with such disrespect. Playing Master of Puppets without down picking every note should be ILLEGAL.

It takes someone with no fucking soul to make jokes regarding epilepsy. May it never happen to your kids. It robbed me 20 years off my life. Age 14 - 30’s
He was just overcome by the riffage from Master of Puppets and couldn't help himself. The look on the kid's face when he realizes his music made the poor man possessed. Pure fear. Classic.
I feel that. Nothing worse than trying to quietly and respectfylly test out an old Fender amp you're about to drop $2,000 on and then never get to hear it cause some kid is loudly riffing beside you. I had this happen at a GC in Virginia once. Some 50 year old @$$hole with greasy dreads and a pirate bandanna who smelled like 2 weeks of B.O and stale bong water kept following me around playing "War Pigs". Worst part is, he had an elderly guy with an oxygentank tagging along...I guess his dad or grandpa who had to drive him cause he probably didn't have a license/car. Every part of the store I went to, he and grandpa would show up right beside me and he'd plug up there. I went to the pedals, he grabbed a nearby bass and WAR PIGS... Went to the keyboards... He grabbed a guitar by a pedal display... WAR PIGS... I finally went to the acoustic room where I figured I'd escape him... NO... I sat down with a nice used Taylor 914 i'd been wanting to try out... 5 seconds later, HERE HE COMES. He grabs a fck'n BANJO and "Dun dun dun" WAR PIGS.

@@DavidDurham-sn4yk thats just plain incorrect, but by all means believe the boomer mentality of “tubes or die” instead of learning about sound design if it helps you feel better lol. I love tube amps but there’s absolutely nothing that makes them inherently better. I run two amps, one tube, one solid state. The solid state has a sharper attack and quicker response by the very nature of it being non-tube, and it compliments the warm spongy tube amp sound perfectly. And, if I was running just one amp, it would be the solid state one. The tube amp is simply an accessory to it
@@zacharyd6819the point is that an amp with a high watt output for under $200 is not unusual, regardless of how the quality compares to a full tube amp

Then he insulted me and said I should become a bass player. Most random and polite guy though. He was full of laughter so he was probably just laced on something with weed lol.
When you play a song like master of puppets, you don't alternate pick. Its downstrokes through most of that song, riff-wise. Its what gives the riff its power.
After hearing someone play master of puppets that fast by cheating with alternate picking and riding the E without palm muting, then thinking they actually did something would enrage anyone. The store owner should've apoligized to the man being traumatized and scolded the guy playing guitar.
I wish car showrooms were like guitar stores, if you are a good guitarist they let you take all the cool models out for a spin no hassle. Imagine going into lamborghini like " Bet i can melt the wheels off that" and the salesman just gives you the keys 😂
