The Guitar Place

Springfield Music Store will be open today Noon to 4:00 PM. Many deals to be had, lots of closeout items. We are getting ready for band rental season and must get rid of many things so we can function. 12 pounds of stuff in a 2 pound bag.

Okay we have moved The Guitar Place into our other two storefronts. The stuff is still here.

The Guitar Place has been consolidated with our other two storefronts in Springfield. Everything is out of the building and one door down in the strip here. The drum carcasses and fixtures and junk have been moved to storage for organization. A bit crowded now in the two remaining stores but lots of bargains.

Grab a quick bowl of cereal then off to the warehouse to make room for more junk. Nice and quiet in there and kind of soothing part of the day. We will be open after noon if you would like to buy any closeout stuff.

Worked through the weekend, put up the good fight. We were out at the warehouse at about 8:00 PM and I knew we weren't going to finish moving everything. Landlo...rd returned my call and no sweat, the tenants were not going to need the place for a few days. So the consolidation sale continues. Way too much stuff. So my buddy Morris Mcfarland and I headed back to Springfield Music Store had a beer and a bite to eat at Red Lobster and called it a day. Back at it this morning but wilh a little less pressure! Some of my friends have come down to buy some closeout stuff, great to see them in the place...Art Donato Tom Zartler Stuart Mckee and some other folks Robert Bruckner. Rick Crecraft..still stuff.....still time! See more

It is amazing how time keeps moving on. Clara is on her new schedule, a two day work week. I will go get some Wawa coffee for us and think about how to get rid ...of so much excess retail stuff in my store. I think I am going the way of the dinosaur. Maybe they were too big and stupid to adapt. Who knows, maybe it was a meteor, an ice age, the dinosaur plague or who knows what. I have one month left to move a mountain of stuff out of a storefront in the Springfield Music Store. Actually the stuff is in The Guitar Place. We have already moved the guitars down to the main store. That was fairly painless. They are in a smaller place but nicely organized, easy to see and try. We will be making shelving thanks to Chris Adams to best use the remaining space in the main store. Using available space near the ceiling and getting the rest of the area prepared for some real nice large show cases. The rest of the stuff will not be so easy. In the basement of the space we are moving out of is an accumulation of years of junk of closing out music stores. Oddball fixtures, tools and things like that. And junk. Mixing boards and amps that were too old or too big or too broken to be fixed or sold. And I kept them in the hopes that someone might want them and my hoarding nature....dinosaur mentality. And 4X12" guitar cabinets left over when the mentality was bigger is better. I have a dozen of those. For anyone that thinks size still matters...I have a bunch of very nice big and heavy guitar cabinets. Please feel free to stop by. And if you need a drum rim please note that I may have what you need. As well as maybe 400 to 500 others that you may not need, once again please feel free to stop by. And the sheet music a silly amount of it. How can you not want this stuff at a silly low price. I closed out a wholesale music distributor and have scads of classical piano, guitar tablature books, books from musicals, classical flute, clarinet and oboe and what have you books. One month left to sell this stuff before I need to move it to the warehouse. I would rather sell this stuff than move it. Today the clearance signs go up. Everything must be moved out of the old guitar place by May 31st. Help me help me! See more
