Jenk Posted March 9, 2004 Report Share Posted March 9, 2004 I am a guitar novice planning to purchase my first guitar, but I know nothing of what to look for (what works/ doesn't work for my needs). Someone suggested that I seek out board members in the Chicagoland area who might be willing to meet me at a music store to go over the basics of what to look for in a guitar. So if you live in the Chicago metropolitan area and love sharing (if not showing off) your immense knowledge of guitars, please PM me. Thank you, Jenk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
syxxstring Posted March 9, 2004 Report Share Posted March 9, 2004 Where are you at in chicago? I dont live there anymore, viva las vegas, but could recomend some places i used to dig. If I can make it Minstrel Music in Niles will be part of my visit home in May. Extremely cool people. I think at least one forum member works in a chitown-area store.

Jenk Posted March 9, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2004 I'm in the West burbs (Lombard). I will check out Minstrel Music's website (assuming that they have one). Thank you for the info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pickleweaseler Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 If you want a decent used guitar, check out midwest buy and sell. It's like a pawnshop that specialzes in guitars and amps. Lots of used stuff (as well as "vintage") and so many marshall amps it is difficult to navigate the store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
