SO WHAT! NOTHING SPECIAL, RIGHT?
The Musician's Friend web site (easy to navigate) also offers a free Newsletter, Free Email, Product Reviews, a Search Engine, Tech Tips, Articles, a Fun Zone, Downloads, Music Links, and the ability to Track Your Order. The site also has a Spanish version if English is NOT your primary language.
EXTRAS
Musician's Friend gives away musical gear worth up to $1000 each and every week. You can also download free ecards and wallpaper from their web site. I have placed several orders (ranging from $20.00 to over $100.00) - Musician's Friend has added "free" bonus items to several of my orders (for example: a key-chain with a leather pouch for guitars picks). Nice touch!!!
CUSTOMER SERVICE
Widely criticized, I've had no problems. I called the 1-800# once (1-800-391-8762). The attendant was polite, and helpful.
THE BEST FOR LAST
New specials are posted on the web site weekly. The deals are real. Musician's Friend offers dual 45-day money back/price match guarantees the buyer can be sure they got a great value! Free shipping is offered on some orders (currently for purchases over $299.00).
I will shop at Musician's Friend exclusively, when shopping on-line, for music supplies. No disappointments here.
ONLY DISADVANTAGE TO ON-LINE MUSIC SHOPPING
While the prices are low at Musician's Friend, or any on-line store, I do make purchases locally at times. Musician's Friend does not have a repair shop and does not sponsor local artists and events. Don't forget this point when ordering on-line. Give your local retailers a shot once in awhile! (Okay, I'm off my soap box!)
