Why don’t Guitar Center setup and tune their guitars! (self.guitars)

They would be much easier to sell. It can’t take that long for someone to run through and tweak and that had been messed up or drifted the prior day.

Having worked at a music store (not guitar center) you’d do that all day long if you tried. I swear, the first thing everyone does when they pick up a guitar, is start fucking with the tuning pegs (whether it’s already in tune or not).

A lot of times our sales guys would tune it real quick, while they talked about the guitar, before they handed it to potential customer.

It’s like expecting clothes to be hung on racks or folded in a department store.
