The “new” Sweetwater….

[László]

Yes, but you have 24 hrs to pic it up at my place. I dig their return policy.

I can't. I'm doing an ad project for a car company.

 

[sergiodeblanc]

At least there are tootsie rolls.

Better than the Smarties and banana laughy taffy those monsters send me.

Pointless candy, they should just throw some Tums in there.

How awful. I bet they’re even paying you to have to do that.

Problem solved! Do it in the car company car. I’m an idea man; You’re welcome.

….walk-in retail store.

A week and a half ago, on my way from Indiana to Michigan, I stopped in to see my friend and sales associate, David Mikautadze, at Sweetwater in Fort Wayne. He had told me that Sweetwater had completely redone its retail showroom. Wow! They have completely moved the showroom into the old warehouse, and it is about 10 times the size of the old one. It has a great layout, and is a very convenient way to shop. They had quite a section of PRS Guitars on display in the electric room. Here are a few photos I took that day:









Very state of the art. Will add another attraction to GuitarFest.

THOSE BASTARDS! There is a red Flying V on that wall and it is NOT on their web site! WTF!!? I'm going to have a strong word with my SW sales rep.

Uhh, those aren't TUMS?

Duh, you still have GAS after eating them. It’s a racket, I tell ya!

You can send me the Smarties and Laffy Taffy, and I’ll send you the Bit O’Honey they send me.

Bit O’Honey - the trick or treat candy for when you run out of rocks.

Impressive!

That place is so huge, I was expecting to see a pond with a fountain (sweet water)! Thanks for sharing, good to know it is there!!

And that’s just a tiny part of this huge “campus”. Gearfest has turned into a major event with the greater area being outside and a major live stage venue.

Yeah, that was on my list for last year, but like everything else, didn't happen. Maybe next year.

One of the off years from Experience, I have to make this pilgrimage.

Why would I like Smarties? They’re trash candy. I’d rather crush a roll of Certs recreationally.

I would egg the house of the person who handed out toothbrushes less than I would the person who gave me smarties.

This job is the kind smaller jobs lead to. I'm very happy and lucky to have it.

The sad face was for kidding around.

Every time my dentist gets into his Ferrari. he says, "Thank you Sweetwater for sticking Bit O' Honey in those boxes."

 

[Silvertree]

I was through there again on Labor Day. It's amazing if you have never been. My kids went on the slide while I walked through the retail space. There is a coffee shop, cafeteria, clinic, haircutting service, studios, and a bunch of other stuff too.
