Thing to do is tell them you found one for less. I can’t recall how/where I did, but the guy in store reduced it on site. But he was not the mgr. corporate guy. Place generally irks me, as they trade in “vintage” which they’ve ripped off someone for.. and they don’t repair stuff. Like a 60 Gibson J-45 or 50 with a damn split wooden bridge and a price didn’t reflect the cost of the repair that would have to be done. That kind of stuff. Sometimes you luck out with a decent soul.
You might be better off with something else so you can repair it if it separates, etc.
Excellent info., JSM. I don’t care for Guitar Center, but we do shop there. We’re “why do you live here?!” rural. So, the closest legit music store, GC, is a few hrs. away.
Otherwise we order from Sweetwater, or other online music stores.
When we bought our last Monster Cable, I checked the “Made in...” The manufacturer sure doesn’t make it easy for you to find that piece of info. I was a little suspicious, but we need the cables for a recording session.
Thanks for you time and experience.
Best Regards,
