watton_earth Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 I went to guitarguitar Epsom this week. They've only been open a few days, thought i'd mention that: - Lots to see and play with. - Good facilities. - Professional staff. - Finance available. They let me trade in some basses and a pedal towards a new bass and gave a good price. They even called me 'sir' Well worth a visit. watton_earth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am local and mean to check it out, but TBH I don't really need to see a wall of brand new basses as I prefer them already chipped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watton_earth Posted June 29, 2011 Author Share Posted June 29, 2011 I saw a few 'vintage' basses that were expensive and only a few well priced more modern second hand basses and guitars. (it's mostly new stock as they've just opened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm really happy to hear you enjoyed the store and service I hope you won't be the only one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cetera Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Will have to try and make it along soon..... especially if there will be some good 'used' stock.

Cosmo Valdemar Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 I know a guy who works there, he posted a job vacancy ad for them, if only it wasn't in bloody Epsom!! Pretty much my dream job right there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burgundymouse Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 +1 to the good service. Phoned on thursday to see if they had an Ashdown amp I was interested in. They had it in their Leeds store, shipped it down to Epsom and I picked it up on Saturday. Really helpful staff and they carried it to my car. Its a big store though with lots of stuff you didn't know you wanted until you walk in so might be an idea to leave the house deeds at home.

argm Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 (edited) I have to agree. I bought a few bits and bobs about a month ago and the service was excellent. None of the snobbery and general lack of interest for customer's when I went up to Denmark Street! I also heard of the special oening you got last thursday! I was wondering, do GuitarGuitar do price matches?... Edited September 18, 2011 by argm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Unfortunately not directly. But there is a carpark about 20 yards down church street on the left then another carpark on the right. But right next to the store is a small carpark for a small baptist church/scout hut.
