Fuzzbass2000 Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 (edited) Pleasantly surprised by the new flagship London (!) GuitarGuitar store in Epsom. Lots and lots of nice stuff (Laklands, Sadowsky's, higher end Fenders) in amongst the usual Squiers (nothing wrong with them mind) and Mexi-Fenders. Worth a look if you're passing by... think there's more basses in this store than there are in the whole of Denmark Street. And altho' the prices are tad on the sharp side (i.e bricks and mortar prices) it's great to get access to many makes and models that don't normally get much shelf space locally.

Musicman20 Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 I think it's great how much gear they have, but it's very expensive which is why I tend not to buy from them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_b Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 The bass department at Andertons is a pokey corner of the cellar, almost under the stairs. Hopefully the competition will make them up their game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see how Guitarguitar can get away with calling a store in Epsom 'London'. That's like having a Newcastle store in Carlisle! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jezzaboy Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 I have always found the guys in the Glasgow shop nice to deal with and have got some good deals from them in the past and what a selection! As I have no cash these days, I tend to avoid visiting it though. Jez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bankai Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Guess who is working there... I'm in on Tuesday (tomorrow) next if anybody fancies swinging by and trying stuff out. As for the comments regarding prices, we're generally not far off what you can find them online for at the internet-only suppliers like DV, and with the bonus of getting to try it out, extended warranty and everything else you get from a real store, it's clear what's the better choice! It's been nice to meet the couple of BC'ers who have been in so far. Wayne is coming in on Tuesday and possibly someone else is as well so send me a PM if you fancy joining the BC delegation that day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
