Yep...
   You should only go to a "Musicians Guitar World Planet Friend" if you know exactly what you want, and you know that they have it cheaper. I went to one in Ohio a few years back (they had "Mars" on one side of the road, and "Guitar Center" on the other. They both had hired some 16 year old kids who "were really into the Ovations", and had no idea what they were talking about....

I won't even go into the local music shop that won't sell me one set of strings, because they're 2 for 1.

ME: "but i only need one set...i have a gig tonite and i'm broke."

THEM; "they are two for one, on sale"

ME: "that's not a sale, you just added the cost of two sets together...do you think herb david (oops, i spilled the beans)
would want me to walk out of here with my $7 dollars, or do you think he would want me to give it to you for one set of strings?"

THEM: :they're two for one...i can't"

Me: (slam) *walks out of door...

THE END
