As an absolute beginner to guitar playing the purchase of a new electric guitar was daunting. However, the staff at GigGear spent a lot of time explaining and giving advice to help make the choice a lot easier. The staff were very friendly and knowledgeable about the instruments and the various models available. They could also demonstrate them to help with the decision. The help does not end at the point of purchase as the staff are always there to support you with after sales service and general advice. All good reasons to buy locally and support your musical retailer.
