WHY I LOVE SAM ASH

Just got off the phone with some boob. We'll call him Rusty. And for kicks, let's call me Hotcakes:



RUSTY:"Thanks for calling Sam Ash."

HOTCAKES: "Hi - I need to replace the power cord on my Roland RD-100 digital piano.."

RUSTY: "Wow!"

HOTCAKES: "...?"

RUSTY:

ME (er....HOTCAKES): "Uh...?"

RUSTY: "I mean, those are pretty rare."

Wow indeed. So I opted not to spend $1700.00 on the new model of digital piano so I'm facing derision from someone who makes...$9.50/hr? Just a guess. Thanks.

Roland was much more helpful. Eliminate the middleman...

Brilliant.

Here's one. Sam Ash, 48th Street. I'll call the clerk "Lance" and myself "Boomer"

Boomer - (holding guitar) I've decided I'd like to buy this Epiphone.

Lance - OK, I'll go get one.

Boomer - no, I'd like to buy THIS one.

Lance - yeah, I'm getting you one still in the box.

Boomer - no, this one I'm holding, the one I've picked out after playing a bunch of them.

Lance - (rolling eyes) uh.... alright, fine.

'Cause God knows it's weird to pick out a guitar and then want to buy that VERY SAME ONE.

You just need to know how to play the game!

I like to go in and ask them about some feature in the product like "dynamic balancing."

I'll call the clerk "Baal" and myself "Ginger"

Baal: These Gibley pickups are great. I have them on my own guitar.

Ginger: Really? Don't you miss the dynamic balancing feature?

Baal: These have dyanmic balancing

Ginger: What's dynamic balancing?


It's a hoot if you do it right.
