Anybody pick up a copy of the new Guitar Center Dream Book at their local GC.......????????![]()
I was told by G.C. today that they can't release them until November 18th. I was at the Manchester CT store and they had one in stock out back in the warehouse but they couldn't even show it to me. No matter how much I beg them too. Sale price on them is going to be
$1,949.00. Ocean Turquoise Pearl roasted maple neck, ebony fingerboard, black pickguard and pickup cover and double buck pickup configuration was the desciption one of the saleman gave me. MAJOR GAS!
No they would not let me. They told me the G.C. corporate gave orders to all G.C. stores that this bass was not to be put on the floor or sold before November 18th. Also I could not lay it away. I would have to pay for it in full.
I made a comment to the salesman that I think G.C. is being rather restrictive in it's policies considering there is a bad recession going on and that most musicians are not going to have $1,949.00 just laying around for them to use. And a lot of us would like to own it but would have to put a deposit on it and wait until Christmas to get it. But my words fell on deaf ears.
This seems odd in regard to not wanting to take a deposit. I have sent an inquiry into this to see if I can get what the exact direction is to the stores. I will keep you posted.
Thx!
