  • Beware of Sam Ash!

    http://www.samash.com/catalog/showit...&SortMethod=0&

    A couple years ago, I saw this very ad on their site and said "hey that’s a pretty damn good deal!" What I got when I ordered it was a Rack Rider (POS) 2x15 EQ. I sent it back and they sent another rack rider in return. I called them up asking what the deal was and they tried everything to try to tell me that what i got was what was advertised. Well obviously when something costs $150 more than the other, they aren’t the same. Anyway, they finally said they were all out of them but had a floor model in one of their stores. I said fine, how bad can an EQ get sitting on the floor? Bad assumption, broken slider, bent face plate...Called them up once again and they turned their back on me telling me that its not their problem and that i need to contact Furman. 3 months later I finally got it.

    Well a few days ago, my brother saw that ad and bought one. Guess what he got in the mail today? That’s right a POS rack rider. Well soon see how it pans out. All i know is that I refuse to step foot in one of their stores again. Just BE CAREFUL!

                During lunch I went to Manny's here in NYC. Manny's is owned by Sam Ash (which is next door AND across the street from Manny's.) I went there looking for a mid priced acoustic for a friend's husband. Anyway, I pick three out for her; a Martin D series, a Washburn EA-20 (like Nuno and Jimmy Page's), and a Takamine. Anyway, the sales guy gives me his prices and I ask if cases are included. He says no. I say are you sure, because they should be. Needless to say, I come back and look on musiciansfriend. They have the Martin for the same price, including case, free shipping, and I believe there is no tax. Same with the other guitars. **** Sam Ash.

                  And did you stutter "ffor"? [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

                    [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] I'm sorry but you guys are hilarious! You guys kick ass, I'm glad I stopped hanging around on the JP forum, it was boring there, all they did was jack off to pictures of each others rack systems and new JP model guitars.
