Horrible customer service every time I've been here. Josh you're a jerk. Thank God for Amazon.

guitar center sent me a bad ibanez and won't send me a new one. I took it in to guitar center to get looked at and they never told me it was a bad neck that I got. instead charged me $100 for the setup and did a horrible job. And I have been talking to Eric Eldridge through email and he won't work with me at all on this. told me to go through coverage and talk to Ibanez. Horrible horrible experience with guitar center and I would never recommend it to anyone. Instead go to sweetwater where they value their customers and will exchange a bad guitar out that they sent you. read more

I live a very long way it was away and my only time for music shopping is guitar center, the customer service is horrible. They are very vague with all the information I'm trying to convey. I don't like how they give me attitude after asking a innocent question, I don't recommend coming here. I recommend going to other guitar centers besides this one, they don't give you recommendations, and they will not help you do not go here! read more

It's about a 50/50 chance I walk out of there mad. Half the employees are great especially the guitar tech. He's always helpful and very knowledgeable. But a couple of their sales people are condescending, rude and don't have a clue what their doing. read more

I purchased a used guitar from this store online. Honestly, I was very nervous as I was well aware of some of the horror stories of buying a used guitar from Guitar Center via the internet. However, this instrument showed up in perfect condition with everything in the case that was supposed to be there. I am completely satisfied with the team at this store and appreciate the effort they made to safely ship the guitar to me, a person they've never met and probably never will. Thank you!! read more

I ordered a guitar that was not available in store and needed to be shipped. The clerk shared that he had the same guitar. When I pick up my guitar and arrive home, there are missing pieces, and it's missing the kit that comes with it to make adjustments. The worker stole my parts for his own guitar and tried to say I am lying about parts that are literally included on the box and papers inside. Not the brightest bulb in the box. The manager said he did not steal and replaced my parts. Hilarious and indeed a shit show like everyone else has concluded. read more

I took my 2000 dollar Martin guitar I bought about a year ago in to have a crack in the middle on the lower bout repaired. When I got it back there was some kind of glue residue on top in several places and more around the bridge. Also some kind of pinkish stain on the binding and the lower bout as if it was put in some kind of vise or something holding it clamped while the glue dried. I only took it to GC because I bought a 2 year warranty. Now my beautiful Martin Special Carpathian guitar looks worse than it did when it had the small crack. I've been to several guitar centers in my Denver area and they all act like they could care less about anything to do with music or salesmanship or courtesy. They can't answer even simple questions about a given instrument especially one like mine that is a special edition made FOR GUITAR CENTER BY MARTIN !!! I'm fucking done with Guitar Center forever. It is really no wonder they were in bankruptcy and they were going downhill long before Covid hit. If it was just the one store I could understand but the lackadaisical, unconcerned who gives a shit approach seems to be prevalent across several stores I have visited in my area in the last year. read more

So I'm in a new town, embarking on a new gig in my profession (medical) and I walk into the Guitar Center in Arvada, Colorado tonight with a serious jones to plug in a Les Paul. My intent is to purchase a new Gibson, because I freaking love Les Pauls. A lot. Have for over 40 years. I already own a 1989 Custom but have never remotely considered myself a collector. A gentleman named Chris is working and he unassumingly checks in with me and asks if he could help me. Of course I casually share that I might be in the market for a new (or killer used) Les Paul. Chris hooked me up with a beautiful 2019 flame burst standard with 9-46 strings and led me to a practice room where I proceeded to crank it up to about a 7 playing though an Orange amp (for the first time). It was awesome. Chris was awesome. I might be in the market for a new wife soon because of this 1.5 hour sojourn, but I guarantee you that it's a matter of time until I buy something. When I do it will be through Chris, at Guitar Center, in Arcada, Colorado... Thank you bro, and I will be in touch soon! Gary read more

This guitar center experience was by far the worst customer experience and service I have ever received. Me and my buddy just wanted to test the studio monitors in the studio monitor room however there was no way to hook up to the monitors to test them because guitar center is still using an 8 mm stereo jack which is not present on any apple iPhone seven or later. You would think in 2020 that guitar center with set up a Bluetooth connection option to their studio monitor room however that was not the case. This alone, would not be a problem if any of the customer service representatives would have been helpful and provided us with a 8 mm stereo jack to lightning cable adapter, but the audio service representative was very nonchalant did not even try to help us, he just said "we don't have one." We proceeded to ask other representatives in the store who all pointed us back to the audio representative who again wasn't even trying to be helpful, just kept saying "I already told them we don't have an adapter" guitar center has a $10,000 studio monitor setup that is completely unused and worthless because of a $20 adapter that you can buy at a gas station. Is this a joke? read more

Guitar Center - The little things guitar center... the little things - Musical Instruments & Teachers Near Me - Arvada, Colorado

I have been to this location many many times as it is one of the only music stores with decent prices. I would very much like to purchase items exclusively online to avoid the in store experience, but Im not the kind of person to purchase things based on reviews. Regardless, I have shopped this location a myriad of times, and every time has been such a bummer. I get stares from across the room from nearly all the employees, and am NEVER offered help. So instead I have to play only the guitars within my reach and just prey to the guitar gods that the floating bridge guitars are in tune. After waiting for someone to acknowledge my existence and offer some assistance, I finally try to go on the offensive and look for help. All the workers are either engaged in conversation with fellow employees, or they scatter like roaches. Anyways, today was a test to see if things had gotten better... it had not gotten better. Same old "Guitar Center Experience", different day. Save your time and gas, go to Music Go Round, or keep searching the secondhand sites. I wont be returning to this GC for anything other than strings. P.S. I have had an excellent experience here before around 5 months ago. The customer service manager (I believe his name was Tracy) was an AWESOME employee, and everyone else who works there should strive to be more like him. That one awesome experience is absolutely destroyed by the countless abysmal trips to GC. read more

We're lucky here in the Denver/Boulder area, that we've got several guitar stores to choose from. I always enjoy going into the Westminster Guitar Center, to see what cool used gear they have in stock at the moment, and to demo the latest Stratocasters and Les Pauls. They've always got my favorite gauge electric guitar strings and picks in stock, and the staff are not arrogant hipsters. I've bought several effects pedals from this location, and a really nice Fender Princeton Reverb Special Edition all tube amp. Keep up the good work, Guitar Center Westminster. read more

I bought my most beloved guitar from here (Heritage H535 Artisan Aged) Josh was very helpful with making a recommendation and educating me about the history of The Heritage and how they are made in the OG Gibson factory. He even saved me quite a buck. Chris was also very patient with me as I played couple dozen guitars to pick the one I like. They are very clean regarding covid and every item that gets touched gets wiped. I also take lessons from Kris and he is an amazing teacher and we are making great progress. I have interacted with pretty much everyone that works here and they are all amazing people. read more

Needed some guitar picks. However the store's rack was empty except for 2 bags of picks not suitable. I asked if that was all they had and was told that was it. I was amazed. A guitar store without a basic items like guitar picks? Demonstrates how far they have fallen. read more

So I thought I'd try GC once more to see if in the dead of winter they might want to give me a decent deal on a guitar. Sorry not possible!!!! At checkout I specifically asked about discounts/coupons etc and were there any possibly coming soon. The answer. "NO". The following week and since, all I've seen is discount coupons from GC. NEVER EVER again will I buy anything from GC or Musicians Friend (a GC) affiliate. They are just like any other big box music store. A Ripoff filled with people who will tell you "anything" to make a sale. Shop online, don't waste your gas. Surprised they stay in business. I am a working musician and buy tons of gear from amps, guitars, strings, cables, effects. Not another dime GC! read more

I am sorry to give this location such a bad rating. I have just always felt like I was doing someone a favor to buy something. I stood around looking for someone to help me with the purchase of a tuner but both guys at the station near the office just stood there talking to each other. Another couple of guys were behind the door in the office. I don't mind waiting but don't like it when I feel ignored. I had to go up to the desk and interrupt a sales person who was very preoccupied with what he was doing. I asked him if he could let me see the tuners behind the counter. He looked at me like I had insulted him. Then unhappily, he said okay and went over to the counter where the tuners were. He was checked out, going through the motions. I get it. He probably had something going on that affected his behavior. But this isn't the first time. Time and again I have felt like I had to run people down to get service there. That's why I'm not going back. I'll drive the extra 3 miles to a local place that treats me like a human being. Guitar Center is for rock jocks and wanna bees.... read more

I created a yelp account specifically for this store, mainly because it was such a hot and cold experience. We're a couple traveling musicians from a much more humid climate. I realized that my guitar needed a fret alignment so we brought it into the store. Logan went above and beyond to try and save us money and save my guitar. He knew we were on a budget and was willing to try multiple solutions to make it work. Unfortunately, we didn't have the time. We ended up going with a lower end classical and asked Steven if he knew of any way we could save money on the price (again, traveling musicians). He very pleasantly said no, but we were free to make a call to guitar center and they could possibly help us. From there, we made the call and the representative was so nice and was able to save us 56 bucks. We came back inside and tried to ask an employee named Sabado about price matching. This man was radiating annoyance and rudeness when we first walked in, but I get it, customer service isn't always fun. However, his tone and general demeanor for us trying to get the equipment that we use to make a living was just unacceptable. I have never felt more unwelcome in a retail environment. If you don't wanna do your job, get a different job, my dude. Everyone else was amazing, though! read more

I went here for my first guitar ever and I had a guitar picked out for $350 and last second right before buying they say the one I picked out was bad and give me a different one for $350. Anyways I get home and start practicing. After a couple weeks I realize there is major buzzing up past the 12th fret. A couple weeks later I bring it back there to ask about it. The first guy I see was extremely rude and just said I didn't humidify the guitar( I was humidifying it every day). Eventually this guy literally begins ignoring me even though I was unbelievably respectful, like to the point where I literally had to leave him and find someone else. All said and done they said there was nothing they could do, they blamed it all on me. I brought the guitar into a different shop to get fixed up and another $100 later it's fixed but please, be careful with this place it's not worth it to go here if your a new guitarist they will take advantage of you and give you used and bad guitars:) read more

I would like to give them less than one star right now because they made me very upset. Their attitude was very unacceptable, I wish I would have gotten names. It's very simple, I asked for a military discount which at first I hate doing. But I am encouraged to do so throughout different resources. In doing so I got denied because I was not active duty. So my response was, so a nine year veteran with two deployments One of which was combat does not count? The guy laughed at me and told me chill man I'll give you the discount. My opinion is very unacceptable don't think I'll be shopping there anymore thank you. read more

I just spent an hour in your store. My boyfriend brought in his guitar for maintenance. All we were doing was cleaning the internals to improve the quality of the volume knob. He took it to the service desk and a guy there took it to the back. He told us it would take 15-20 minutes to look over it and fix it. We wondered around the store for an hour. Then the guy walks back in and said, "Hey, sorry about the wait, man. I just went to lunch." He ran to the back, took 5 minutes and brought the guitar back out. Once our interaction was over he ran out the front door. The first thought that came to mind was, "Damn, does that guy even work here?" I am beyond upset and will not be going back. What a f****** joke. read more

Best music place in town! Knowledgeable, fast, and friendly expert service. I go there for all my music needs (and send/take my friends and family here too) and I am always even happier with my purchase than I even thought I could be. Especially with the electric drum kit I just bought late yesterday night as an early Chanukah present to myself!!! read more

Came to this establishment on 8/30/19 around 7:50-800 pm & asked 2 simple questions of the plain white dude in audio and he knew not a thing. He was not only rude, he was not knowledgeable. I knew you had the product I was looking for (bought it there before), but because either he could not be bothered or because he was honestly clueless (or a bit of both) he lied & said you didn't have it. He literally told me to "google it." Very rude & honestly made me think less of the company as a whole. read more

I've spent my whole life around musicians and yet I don't know all that much about instruments in general. However, I do know when someone is BSing their way through a sale. If they keep repeating the same two bits of information over and over, that's your sign. I've always thought that Guitar Center is the Starbucks of the music world. They have a huge selection of totally generic products, nothing special. Sure they're cheaper because they buy 100 of the same guitar but that means 99 other people have your guitar. Not such a rockstar now are you? Don't get me wrong they have their place. If you've never played before and you are looking for a cheap instrument to see if you are really interested in learning it, then this is your starting place. My other problem with them is that they have salespeople not music people. When I bring in my very rare vintage bass I expect a little drooling. That way when I hand it over to you for maintenance I know you care about it almost as much as I do. I know you won't eff it up. I would rather pay a little more for a locally owned shop that cares about what they are doing, so I know I can get experienced advice on buying an instrument and later bring it back to add accessories or upgrade it. That's just my opinion though, take it or leave it. read more

So this is what you get when you go to the Walmart of guitars. GC Dude: Can I help you? Me: Yeah, I need Oasis (a kit to replace the water locking crystals in my humidifier). GC Dude: I have the humidifier Me: I already have that. I need the HumiGel Replacement Kit, it's on your website. GC Dude: I can order it. Me: I can do the same. Thanks Waste of a trip. I ordered it on Amazon and received it on my doorstep in 2 days, which I should have done the first time. He did not even know what it was, and tried to sell me what I already have. I hate places where you need to educate their staff when they are supposed to be the experts. I did not give it one star because sometimes they have the simple thing that I need and I do not want to wait two days to get it. read more

So...I got a banjo. I don't know anything about banjos. Nothing. I have been here twice since getting it and the same guy (in the strings/accessories area) helped me both times and didn't make me feel stupid at all and did his best to help me find what I needed. I'm much closer to a pickin' and a grinnin' now! read more

I took my dad's old Fender Mustang to the Arvada store to figure out why it wasn't connecting to the amp that I had used with it before many years ago. I talked with TC who took his time to talk to me about my dad's guitar and test out all the possibilities of why it wasn't working. I was overjoyed to hear about how great my dad and to hear that TC would do his best to be able to fix it. He was honest and thorough and did a fantastic job on the guitar. When I picked it up and saw the end result, it nearly made me cry. He cleaned it up so nicely and got all the buttons, knobs and output jack working perfectly. He took care to keep the vintage wires the way they were. I cannot say enough wonderful things about TC and some of the other guys I had the pleasure to talk with. I would recommend TC and the Guitar Center for anything you could need. They give realistic advice, not just try and make you buy the most expensive just to make money. I won't use another place!! read more

I dropped off my guitar for a setup on a Friday and was told it would take a "couple of days" I patiently waited for 4 days before I finally called and asked what's going on? Well, the guitar was ready days ago, they just never called me. I have read lots of bad reviews about this place and hoped it would be different for me but I was wrong. If this kind of oversight is common I definitely don't want them touching my instruments again. I kept having the feeling that my guitar was somehow going to be sold by mistake. This lack of communication doesn't help their business. I think I'm done with the big chain music stores. I'm going small business from now on. read more

Bought a $5000 digital piano and the delivery service would only bring it as far as the yard. Two neighbors helped me bring all 250+ lbs of it inside. Once I opened the box I realized it wasn't assembled. I called to complain and initiate a return, but was told that the only way I could return it was to box it up and send it back myself. When I pointed out I couldn't pick up 250+ lbs, and even if I could, it wouldn't fit into my car, I was hung up on. What a scam! read more

I never thought of leaving a review for guitar center, but since I had a couple terrible experiences on the website and their 1-800 and one good one at their store I thought I'd spread the word. Ditch their crappy website, it needs help. You can't use two gift cards there, you can't put in any sale code and a gift card code on the same purchase. The 1-800 isn't much help either, she just kept repeating she'd do what ever she can to make me happy. Well guess what, my 10% coupon they emailed to me wasn't good for half of the stuff on the website (or store). I went into the Westminster store. Not my first time. My husband owns many guitars, not necessary all from here, but buys strings and things like that here. I went in there to buy his Christmas present. I had a $20 promo gift card the store snail mailed to him (I took it out of the mail before he saw it) and my own $50 gift card from my Discover cash back. I walked in the store on a Wednesday afternoon and Chris F asked if I needed help, I told him what I wanted, he got it, took my two gift cards, I paid the difference and walked out. Easy as that. Just searching and trying to buy on the website took twice as long and I ended up with nothing from there. I even posted my frustration on their facebook page asking for suggestions and they deleted my post twice. I didn't know they could do that. OK, so I'm wishy washy here. Bad experience at guitarcenter.com, guitar center's 1-800 and their facebook. GOOD experience at the Westminster store. I can't really comment too much on their instruments, but if you are buying something they sell at all music stores, check here they might be having a sale. My husband bought a Gretsch Horton Heat guitar from here three years ago, they sell it everywhere, but this store beat their prices. He was happy with the service he received. It's a mega store and I by no means hope that you avoid Mom and Pop music stores, but sometimes what you are looking for is here and not there, like in my case. read more

Been here many times and dumped several thousand dollars on equipment that would have cost me 25-30% more anywhere else. Pros - Sale prices can be unbeatable. Staff is fairly knowledgeable and have always been courteous. Cons - The crowds during weekends and seasonal sales can overwhelm the staff and lead to long wait times. My advice, stop in here during the day on a weekday if you've got burning questions you need answered and you'll probably find someone more than willing to talk to you. read more

This place is terrific - if I need help, have questions, the staff has always been helpful. If I just want time to myself to try out guitars, basses, or amps, I don't feel pressured - I get all the time I want to do that. Sometimes I buy, sometimes I don't, but no change in service. I recently bought a used guitar from them, had an issue with the fretboard, and Ed, one of the luthiers, made some adjustments on the spot for me when I brought it in. I feel like they live up to their slogan "All we sell is the Greatest Feeling on Earth." read more

I was in shopping for Telecasters today and Sabato helped me out. He set me up with a spot in the amp room to set up my own gear I had with me, then brought me a bunch of Teles to try. He knew everything there is to know about each model and really helped me narrow down my choices. He was friendly about me being camped out there for a while and I would trust making a purchase with him. read more

During these unprecedented times, I really hate to give a poor review; however, on 8/3/2020 around 5-6PM, I experienced such terrible customer service between an employee (Sabato) and my husband during our visit to this location. My husband and I came into this guitar center to replace the top string to his baritone ukulele. Upon walking through the doors, we both used the hand sanitizer available at the entrance of the store. We were greeted by Sabato and asked what we came in for. My husband told him we were looking to buy new strings while holding up his ukelele. Sabato rudely told him that they don't have any baritone strings because they "just don't send them to us". Okay....and then he said, "You can order them online and then bring your instrument to us". Okay....and then he said, "If you don't believe me, you can go and look for yourself". Okayyy?!?! So after his little spiel, my husband decides he wants to look around and Sabato says, "we have to disinfect anything you touch so just let us know if you touch anything". My husband said "okay". My husband and I follow the blue taped arrows to the acoustic room. He wanted to look at the ukulele's they have. Not a very big selection. He plucked the strings to some of the ukeleles that were hung together (about 5 ukeleles) and along comes Sabato to disinfect all the ukeleles. He reminds us again that he needs to disinfect everything that is touched in the store. We get it, we heard you the first time. So my husband tells him which ukeleles he's touched. I think he wanted us to ask before we touched an instrument?? Either way, he was still being rude. So as he is disinfecting the all the ukeleles my husband and I walk out of the acoustic room and head to one of the check out registers to a different employee and asked him if we are able to order strings. He kindly says, "Yes", but was helping another customer so we decided to wait. And then along comes Sabato again and asks my husband if he could help with something. My husband tells him that he is going to order strings. And then, Sabato offers his help for once. Why couldn't he just do that in the first place?! He obviously knew right from the start that we were there for strings. Going on, he's checking his computer for strings and explains to my husband, yet again, why he needs to disinfect everything we touch. At this point My husband about had it but kept his composure really well (until he wrote his google review). Sabato recommends something strong but apparently most are on back order and finally he finds one that's in stock around $5, so my husband goes with that one. He offers my husband to buy a back up because "these type of strings tends to break easily". My husband declines. Some how the total ended up being around $12 maybe from shipping?? At this point I think both my husband and I just wanted to pay and leave. So my husbands pays and asks for a receipt and Sabato says it will be sent to his email. It's 11:16pm on 8/3/2020 and my husband still hasn't received an emailed receipt. While my husband was checking out with Sabato, I'm watching and seeing other customers touching things and no one is following them disinfecting everything they touch. All in all, the customer service provided by Sabato compelled me to write this review. We have return in about a week for the strings and depending on how that goes, I may or may not update this review. *Update 8/9/2020 I sent my complaint to the email provided by Kenneth T's response to my review. They got back to me shortly afterwards to let me know they have sent over my complaint to the store manager at GC Arvada, CO. The store manager emailed me an apology statement and included the following ending statement: "I have looked up your order and refunded $11.98, which was the price of the strings. I hope that you will give us a chance to make it right for you on your next visit. I noticed that the strings have arrived and are ready for pickup. If you bring your uke in with you when you come to pick them up, I will see if we can have someone restring it for you at no charge". My husband went in yesterday to pick up the strings and got his Uke restringed at no charge, just as promised. Sabato was also working yesterday and issued my husband an apology personally. I think this experience was a learning experience on both ends during these weird times and stresses the importance of communication. Not only what is being communicated but, just as importantly, how it is being communicated. I appreciate the management of GC for addressing this issue with my husband and I in a quick and professional manner. read more

Bought a guitar online from them, and they conveniently sold it and left me a pathetic "sorry" voicemail in response. No offer to make it right, no offer to find an alternative replacement order, no offer of a discount for my troubles, nothing. They blamed "their system" and simply dropped me a "sorry man". I don't even live in the area, but judging by the poor reviews this place is obviously complete crap. read more

I have never had anything but a great experience with this store. Whether I need help learning about something I don't know about, or if I am trying to find something that I have researched thoroughly, these guys are always more than helpful and friendly. They always price match anyone so if I can find it cheaper on the internet they will honor that price, no questions asked, which is great. Recently I had an usual circumstance where I had an issue with an instrument and needed it resolved quick before an upcoming gig; they bent over backwards for me to make sure I had what I needed on time! I don't know a lot of them by name but I know Zach in pro audio is always great, as well as the sales manager, Phil. read more

Let me say the managers tried to fixed every issue I've had with this store. Unfortunately, there have been many issues, and the managers seem to be the only ones outside of pro audio (who do great) that seem to care at all about the store. 1. If you want to pay retail for used and sometimes abused guitars that are sold as new, this is the place for you. 2. If you want to buy a guitar that is set up so badly its nearly unplayable, this is the spot for you. 3. If you want to pay extra for the case that comes with the upper level guitar you are buying, this is the place for you. Basically if you have the time to wait for shipping, never buy here. This store is a sad joke. I dont own a guitar cheaper than $600, most are ibanez 1300 -2200. For that cost a little attention to detail is important. read more

I had a package ordered to the store with the specific reason of wanting to talk with an employee about options for the specific package I got...was waiting for an Umberto...lemme tell ya customer service goes A LONG way an the lack there of also speaks volumes. Im usually a repeat customer Ive bought several Dj controllers from this particular location it seems with each vist to this location it drops ratings each visit to the point this time I will cease to continue shopping in-store with guitar center as the attitude of half the employees there is just like please just take your S#!t an get out. I dunno when you are a paying customer an you feel like its a hassle to ask a question not a pleasant environment as well as being acknowledged by said employee...I stood around trying to figure things out waiting for Mr. Umberto only to have two new guys walk in an he helped them pick out speakers got em rang up an didnt even bother to come back to help me so I ended up walking out I'll just revert to shopping on line Im sure the other companys would LOVE my funds an $ read more

Sebastian was very helpful when I was in the market for an electronic drum set. He showed me several options and informed me of the differences. The store is clean, organized, and I was greeted just after a few steps inside. I enjoyed all the options, and there was an excellent selection. This was my second largest purchase of musical gear, and Sebastian let me take my time and let me look around. The prices are fair and slightly less than competitors that I saw online. I felt I was treated fairly, properly, and had all my questions answered. I highly recommend Guitar Center for any musical needs. I am enjoying my Alesis electronic kit and made a good choice. I'd mention to any drummer looking for a quiet alternative; this kit plays pretty close to an acoustic one. The mesh heads are easy to roll on, and have excellent bounce back/responce. 70 different sets with loads of fun sounds. Make sure you have a good pair of headphones with a 8 foot or longer cord. Overall this kit is solid fun! This was my first visit but I will definitely be back! Thanks for the help. read more

Came into this GC to give it one more try. The rudeness started as soon as we entered. I have purchased several Gibson guitars, several amps, PA equipment etc from this store. The store started going downhill about 5 years ago, (must have been a management change). Today's bs just cinched it for me. Our drummer was looking into purchasing the Alesis $2499.00 electric drum kit, since his GC Card was boosted to 3K! No help, no one around, and only 3 other customers in the store. So he waited about 15 minutes, then comes out to see if he can find someone to help him. He does suffer from an ailment where his lungs don't inflate completely, and that causes a slight breathing problem. He had a mask on, but just tucked slightly under his nose to aid his breathing. No one around him but my son and I, so no one was in any "danger". A young lady comes storming out of the office to RUDELY tell him to cover his nose. ??? When he tried to explain his breathing condition, she just stormed off back to the office to talk to the guy staring into the computer, obviously to complain about him. He's also been a customer of this store since it opened. This is how the NEW Arvada GC treats customers. Needless to say we left and neither of us will be back to this location. read more

Least helpful GC in the state. To the point I use to drive past this store to go to the others. If this store had a particular instrument, I'd order it online instead read more

I rented four powered loudspeakers from this establishment. The rental was supposed to include speaker stands and cables to connect the loudspeakers to my equipment (a mixer, a few microphones and an iPod). When I went in to pick up the rental, they didn't have cables for me, and they demanded that I purchase four cables to operate the equipment, with the promise that when I returned the equipment after the rental, they would refund me the purchase price of the cables. I brought the equipment to my gig, and found that the cables they provided were the wrong type, and there was no way to operate the equipment I rented. One of the speaker stands was also missing a part, and made it impossible to use it. I was able to connect only two of the four speakers to my equipment using cables that I was able to wrangle from elsewhere, and that was insufficient to provide sufficient sound for the event. The next day, when I returned the equipment, I was told that they were unwilling to reduce the rental fee, but made a vague promise that they would provide me a discount the next time I rented from them.

If I could give them zero stars, I would. I won't be bringing them any more business. read more
