Best buy sucks too. Circuit city sucked too. Any of these huge corporate conglomerate stores are trash. LMS are the place you want to go to buy instruments.
@@Sigma77-n2u There used to be, before GC and SAM ASH. When you have been around a while and seen some actual history rather than what they want you to think, go ahead and make comments of “fact” on the internet.
Very sad.The end of an era indeed. I have spent many hours trying out keyboards at Sam Ash in New York and Florida. Thank you Sam Ash. For so many years of service. I will miss you.🙏🏾
I knew it was coming when Sam Ash in Orlando Florida had no air conditioning for months. Employees we're dealing with the FL heat. Some of which we're there for decades. Service was always mediocre and typically always out of stock. It was just a matter of time. Amazon and Sweetwater are the monsters for new. Private owned used guitar shops gets my support.
Man.Guitar Center in Waco is FILTHY.I buy all of my gear on either ZZ Sounds or Reverb. The last thing I bought at GC was a case for my bass. They don’t open until 11:00 A.M!
I was at this very store 2 days ago and it was so sad. I have great memories of this store, even going back to the Mars Music days.
I can’t imagine what could’ve been there as you went it had nothing when I went
Hopefully GC will go next and the small home town music stores can come back.
Coming from a small town in Ga where we had a couple local stores I can definitely agree with that!

@tigeraudio agreed! Too high priced that’s way they’re closing
There’s no selections in small town guitar stores

I’ve always been a guitar center guy but Sam Ash was different and chill with the employees which I liked
Add them among the greats we've lost over the years, Radio Shack, Circuit City and ToysRUs 😥
That hits hard!

It’s definitely sad. The store definitely had some age on it too

Oh wow! Never bought anything from zz sounds or reverb but I’ve been told they are good!
Damn It looks like they!43 selling the floor tiles.
I ended buying a WB music shelf for $10 for my dad because he used to print music for them!

I agree!
Sad
Definitely!
