4000 Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Hi, Does anyone in the Manchester area know if Johnny Roadhouse is closed Wednesdays or if they're closed for other reasons? I've been calling all day (and have also emailed) with no response whatsoever, sometimes sitting on the phone for 10 minutes or more with it just ringing out. Have also tried 2 different numbers. I'm supposed to be returning an instrument Saturday (was on 14 day trial) and as I'm travelling I need to make sure they're open. Never had a problem contacting them before.

4000 Posted June 27, 2018 Author Share Posted June 27, 2018 I've managed to find this page, which states they're open all day Wednesday, 9:30-5:30: https://www.jhs.co.uk/johnny-roadhouse-music-9189-9189-9189-9189/ I started phoning at 9:30 prompt and was phoning at regular intervals all day. Surely they can't have been that busy, can they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ead Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 I work a few hundred yards away, would it help if I toodled down to see what the score was? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4000 Posted June 27, 2018 Author Share Posted June 27, 2018 That would be incredible if you could, I’d really appreciate it, as long as it’s not too much trouble. I’m going to try ringing again tomorrow, obviously, but I’m just concerned that if I can’t get a response there’s a risk I might end up getting the train down Saturday (I don’t drive) to be met with a closed shop, which would be a nightmare, given I’d have to then take the instrument back home again. There’s also my concern that Saturday is the only window I’ve got and if I can’t get it back within the trial period I’ll be lumbered with a bass I don’t want.

ead Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 OK I'll try to pop in tomorrow, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4000 Posted June 27, 2018 Author Share Posted June 27, 2018 Don’t worry if it’s a problem, but if you can that’d be fantastic, I’d really appreciate it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4000 Posted June 27, 2018 Author Share Posted June 27, 2018 If I speak to them in the meantime I’ll do my best to post here (although I’ll be at work so not easy). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ead Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 According to one of the staff peeps the hours are Monday to Saturday 09:30 to 17:30 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4000 Posted June 28, 2018 Author Share Posted June 28, 2018 Hi, managed to speak to them before but have only just managed to post here. Apparently they had problems with the shutters yesterday (I think that's what he said). I didn't get into it. All sorted for now, many thanks for the assist, it's very much appreciated.

ead Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 Yes they have a shutter problem. There is a team on the pavement today with tools and stuff and a sign saying to go round to the side entrance. Glad you got it sorted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
