The dude that runs the joint is a total asshole!…read more Secondly, it's kind of hard to sell instruments when you will not let people play them with a "pick"! You can strum a stringed instrument with your thumb... but you will not get the tone desired!! I asked the gentleman if I could use a pick on the instrument, he said no! I told him it was not the correct way to play the instrument , without a pick ! He quickly replied "I do it all the time!" What a smart ass! I understand his side of the coin!! As a store owner, he doesn't want a bunch of kids and yahoos coming in and scratching up instruments! I understand 100%! But, I really was interested in the mandolin and wanted to buy it!! Since he would not let me use a pick and correctly try out the mandolin.. I had to walk away! That was $1000 sale he missed out on! I would not recommend anyone going here unless they're interested in a cheap guitar and dealing with a smart ass! I still do not know what the tone of the mandolin truly sounded like!!

Pay heed to the shopping policy. No refunds or exchanges (which we missed) so if you purchase a tee (strongly suggest to size up 2 or 3 sizes), be 110% for sure! Otherwise it's hard to rep in an awesome print that doesn't fit
