this guy is an idiot......

Why? Because he appreciates good quality? Not saying Jackson/Charvel isn't, but there is other brands besides J/C that offer quality.

Hey March -

We're one of the biggest JC dealers in the country and we're 20 minutes south of Boston.

Oh yeah... we sell ESP too.

I did not see your shop listed in my yellow pages. PM me your address and the next time I want to look for a Jackson we'll absolutely drive down Rte 3A or whatever to visit you if you have a nice supply of USA made Jacksons.

Wish I had known about you before.

You might want to consider putting your location in your banner ad too, just a friendly suggestion.

Last time I was at GC Boston they had:
2 or 3 USA Charvels
SL2H
SLSMG
DK2
DK2M
DKMG
DKMGT

This week they had ZERO USA made Jacksons except a vomit green Soloist. I was there with the wife. They are carrying a ton of Gibson, Fender, Epiphone, etc., and they have a bunch of lower end Ibanez and JS level Jackson crap.

That's the first place we checked out.

Plus, the guys working in GC there are the most arrogant SOBs you have ever seen. I guess they do not work on commission because you would think they would be a lot nicer to potential clients who are going to drop several grand on equipment.

Must be nice.

if i went on and typed all that, then find out, one of the biggest j/c dealers, that stock j/c guitars, has his shop within a 50 mile radius from my location, i'd feel pretty dumb

Worse than that - I wish I had known this before. However, in the yellow pages I have, Matt's shop is not listed.

Hindsight is always 20/20 - at least not I have a place to go that is not too far away and hopefully a good guy/dealer who can get me what I want when I want it.

I am all too happy to go down to Matt's shop next time I (or the wife) gets the itch to buy a new guitar.

You could always order online...

Sure, a lot of people are still leery of doing online transactions, but if you are dealing with reputable dealers that also have a physical store, that's not really a problem, and they usually have some good USA Jackson / Charvels in stock.

[Marcheville]

Well, thanks for stopping by. Buh bye now.

This is the type of smug attitude that is going to hurt Jackson as a company.

Me - "I am unhappy with the service and attitude I get from people representing Jackson but I love the guitars!"

You - "Well, sorry buy something else and while you're at it, go f8ck yourself!"

This is a great way to build a company.

I don't see this kind of crap at Jemsite and yeah, I guess now I will check out the ESP forums.

You sorta sound like the guy we talked to at the GC in Boston. Do you have long curly hair, a bad goatee and pot belly and live in Pantera concert shirts?

I was going to by a SL type on the bay and asked for some feedback on this board and it was mixed so I nixed the idea. Plus, if I do not like the guitar for some reason, it will be a really tough time to return it.

Also, have heard nightmare stories of people getting guitars that we used for Kung Fu and/or soccer practice by FEDEX and UPS employees.

I'll try Matt's in Weymouth next time around. Now I know. Live and learn.

Yeah, I might be an idiot. But I am an idiot with money who likes to buy a lot of guitars and if you guys supported Jackson as a company and were helpful (isn't that one of the reasons for this board) instead of insulting and crass, maybe Jackson could grow as a company.

Oh yeah, and idiot or not, I will always have a better guitar collection than you.

Flame away!

[guitarzan2]

ESP's are great, they'll do anything in the CS 6-8 mo wait.Really like the new battered Lynch GS-56 and the vintage relic strats.

Thanks Michael C. Suprised there was no plug here for Wayne Guitars.

one word, childish.

[Jackson-Charvel]

Marchville, a late welcome to the forum!

[Sinistas]

There's plenty of locals on this board with both USAs and high end MIJs. Correspondingly, there are some places that sell them: Matt's is one example. GC in Natick has some cool axes from time to time (they had an awesome USA Fusion in Eerie Dess a while back). However, with a post like this you're bound to piss some people off, especially given that there isn't the shortage in the Greater Boston Area that you speak of. Just sayin'.

one word, childish.

the guy tears you one for calling him an idiot and then you post a "I'm with stupid" graemlin? So you agree with him then?

[neilli]

... if you guys supported Jackson as a company and were helpful....maybe Jackson could grow as a company.

If you'd been around here for longer, you'd have seen alot of discussion about 'helping' Jackson 'grow as a company', but I think you'll find FMIC's accountants and lawyers have much more sway over there than anyone here. Believe me, I'd love to have some sensible influence over there, but that ain't gonna happen....

Oh yeah, and idiot or not, I will always have a better guitar collection than you

Don't bank on it, especially when you start by saying you 'only' have 9 guitars

Stick around here - it's worth it, but you made things kinda hard for yourself with that kind of intro, misinformed or not....
