Featuring local, regional, and national talent, Jazz at Five has become a downtown Madison tradition for many music lovers. To enjoy the concerts, you can reserve a seat at a table close to the stage, rent chairs for $2 at the event, or just bring your own chairs. The first time I went, I actually just stood leaning against a wall across the street. And, not only do you get to listen to some amazing jazz, there are also great food and drink vendors to satiate your palate. From Ian's Pizza and the Capital Tap Haus to the Ivory Room Piano Bar and Capital Brewery, you're sure to find something that will compliment the music you're hearing. (A really cool side note: all of the net proceeds from beer sales are donated to Jazz at Five. Yes, you read that right. All of the profits from beer sales at the event are donated to Jazz at Five, Inc., the 501(c)(3) nonprofit that produces Jazz at Five. Seriously, folks, what could be better than this great example of a community coming together for great music?

Barry Clark is one of, if not the largest dealer of Hofner basses in the country. I have bought…read moreseveral Hofner Contemporary model basses from him.

Oops Barry did it again! I went in a few days ago and picked up a very very very cool thin-body…read moreacoustic-electric Flamenco-style classical guitar. Awesome- and you can see my other review on that day's tremendous - dare I say... say it again, tremendous outcome. Can you say, YES to the question - have you ever made an in-store purchase for something very expensive such as a specialized guitar, and had a discount so deep you thought the salesman made a terrible, job-ending quote? I can say yes and I knew you could too! Today, a week later I bought a bass guitar and another guitars, this time an Ibanez acoustic-electric cutaway dreadnought body (steel string). I won't go into the details of the discount because of the ethics of good business, but jeepers! I have purchased musical instruments mostly in the U.S., but abroad as well, and let me say Barry Clark and his family offer customer service better than any place I have shopped. Sounds hyperbolic, huh? I saved a ton today and I have to admit I'm a little giddy about my purchases today. Man, oh man, no regrets on $1400+ purchase AND that's the discount pricing. No remorse in a situation where I usually come away sulking for a few days. That's another blog. As of today, there's a very nice, well-cared for Taylor hanging in the used area that I have my eye on. Barry's already asking a discounted price but I'm betting that someone with some negotiating skills will get a deep discount also, and practically run from the story thinking they just stole something. See for yourself. Say hello to Barry. Remember, if you don't see what you want just ask. His warehouse is packed full.

He did not make me feel uncomfortable like some music store salesman do-treating you as if you don't belong there. I bought an electric guitar, amp, and all the fixings. He let me try the guitar out and helped me look at all of my options and answered all of my questions. Very pleased with my experience.
