Didn't Wunjo used to be round the corner wedged between the Korean restaurants round the back of the Centrepoint?

That aside, I wonder how much they actually pay for the goodies they seem to acquire; they can't all be commissions.[/quote]
Offered my £200 for an '85 MIJ tokai flying vee (inc flight case) which would have sold in the shop for £600+ without the case. iirc I sold it privately for £550 the following week via loot

I bought a banjo a couple of months ago from the Chris Bryant shop on the corner. I cant say they had much in the way of bass stock but I was really happy with the service in there.
didnt feel pressured at all, was welcomed to try whatever I fancied and had a pretty good deal on the banjo with hardcase...
I found Wunjos to be quite welcoming but the other shops were awful. When I was younger I always fancied working in a guitar shop- thank God I didn't as I bet I'd end up like one of those cynical grumpy b*ggers. Their hearts must sink when they hear some songs for the umpteenth time!

They're not too bad actually.

Guitar shop staff can be a nightmare, but I suppose that for every one guy who is happy to be in the musical retail business there are another three nursing broken dreams of rock stardom.
