      Yeah, Guitar Center online charges tax too. I've noticed a lot of places are unwilling to lower the prices lately, but Musicians Friend routinely sends 15% off coupons through email. Problem is, the coupons usually aren't valid on "good" brands like Gibson and Fender. But if you call them on the phone, they usually WILL honor the coupons.

    I remember one time I really wanted to try out a bass but this one guy was hogging the amp playing a Yamaha at full blast, literally just galloping on open strings and letting all of them ring at once. And he didn't stop for like 10 minutes. I was with a friend and was like "I'm always so afraid of being judged when I try out a bass and then you have guys like that that literally give zero shits."

      The rule of "Don't be loud and obnoxious" applies to professionals and beginners alike. You can be Steve Vai or some random guy touching a guitar for the first time, if you're just being extremely loud and annoying, you're being a dick. Everyone, and especially new players, should have respect for other's eardrums. New players should *never* feel self conscious or anything like that about playing in public, because we all understand and have been there ourselves, but they should have the decency to keep it down.

One day this kid a few years older than us picked up a guitar and played the intro to Smells Like Teen Spirit. I was blown away. It may as well have been wizardry to me back then. I couldn't believe that someone could actually play it. Me and my friends were in awe.

      @Akherousia502 6 лет назад +20

      Bro, most of us are, though. There's a certain mechanical skill that's lacking. I agree with your point, by the way. I can't really judge anyone on their journey to becoming a musician but I also feel there's a certain level of ego that goes into a lot of these players and that's when my sympathy dwindles a bit. You can't really improve if you already think you've got it going on.
      All in all, I just think your argument was a poor one because many of us can pick up a random, unfamiliar piece of gear for our instrument and perform quite well. Yes, discomfort can create some deviation in our abilities, but it's on a very micro level so this argument doesn't hold up.
      Though it is important to show a little humility and not ridicule too fiercely because, like you said, we've all been there. Maybe not exposing our awful playing to the public, but we've all been this awful and it's an integral part of the learning curve.

    • @alexandert696

      In music,as long as you keep playing, you ll get better. You dont have to be Gilmour.
      Some people can do that but who is we ?
      Went to a shop for a guitar setup, jobs done, "heres your guitar sir". Try to do a bend and the strings were a mm away from the fretboard. I did a couple more just to make sure this guy had no idea and left.
      Do I care what other people thought of me ? Nah. Half of these guys there were joking around btw, with a camera on their faces.
      And I agree, if people doesnt "appreciate" your "talent" maybe you need more practice. But I ve seen people play like crap one day and perform decently the other.
      Not everyone is a pro, in fact the pros today are the minority.

      yeah, you can tell these guys have 0 technique, they put 0 time in effort in to playing, but they are acting like they are fuckin gettn' it. i dont EVER judg a persons skill leve when they are learning the craft, bet its clear that these peole in this video are disrespectfull clowns and are making a mockery of guitar....and if i were working there i would make them leave.

    I had a hell of a jam with a couple of guys in Guitar Center. They were playing GNR tunes and were Slash and Izzy'ing well enough that I turned up the bass amp and joined in. The in turn turned up, we finished Jungle and almost got through Sweet Child before the employees told us we sounded great but needed to turn down so they didn't get in trouble for missing phone calls. The Gibson bus and rep was there as well, he made a call and offered me a Thunderbird bass at "artist cost" but I still couldn't afford it. Good time, true story!
