r 2 Bongos.Good prices,and nice folks working there..ri
ght here in Montreal...

always nice to come across a nice selection of EBMM instruments; even nicer when you come across the area where there used to be a nice selection of EBMM guitars. (e.g., if you're the owner).

Value wise, these instruments are priced way better than the competition. Come on, for what you get with an EBMM instrument - shouldn't ever need a sale on them!

I'm like you though - I LIKE seeing them!!

I talked to the store manager about the Musicman guitars,and he said that they weren*t the fastest *movers* in the store,but they eventually all sell.Considering the fact that I visit the store 4-5 times a year,I never see the same EBMM guitar twice.People are buying them.

Steve's used to have a good selection a few years back but seem to be keeping their EBMM inventory to a minimum. Italmelodie is definitely the place to go now in Montreal for EBMM guitars. I also noticed that the guy at Steve's that sold me my JP6 back in 2004 (Freddie) works there now.

Yup..Freddie has been at Ital for a few years now,and Ital is definitely the place in town for Musicman guitars and basses...not as much background noise as at Steve*s....much easier on the noives.

I took a look at their website but couldn't find anything on their Music Man stock?

+1 about Ital! It's the EBMM place in Montreal. But they could give their high end guitars a lil' bit more love. I played a JP12 that was very badly setup at my lst visit there.

They even have a good selection of Sterlings. I just wish they could have some more regular Axis. Never been able to play one. May be they sell them as soon as they get them. Don't know?

Their web site doesn't show all their inventory. Even some prices are different online compared to what you get in the store.

Love Italmelodie. I dealt with a guy named Tony, not sure if he's still there but I bought a brand new Mesa Roadster combo from them for a kkiller price. Service was next to none!

 

[alf cockle]

Tony is the store manager..a great guy..no BS..and great service..if required...and after you close the deal,you walk around the corner,and fill up on some great Italian....doesn*t get better...

 

[JDguitar]

Can someone please tell Tony to put his Music Man guitars online so I can maybe buy something from him?

 

[alf cockle]

Just got off the phone with Tony,and he*ll be putting the EBMM guitars on line....don*t know when,but knowing him,it*ll be sooner than later.

 

[JDguitar]

Now that is good service! Thanks for the help!

Still no EBMM online. Only Sterling.

That's right, still at Italmelodie.
