The “new” Sweetwater….

….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 GearFest.

That looks great! David is my guy, too.

Wow. Another reason to do a Midwest guitar store tour.

He’s become a really good friend. He’s also a GREAT sales rep. I highly recommend him!

Exactly what I was thinking.... now how do I spin "guitar store tour" into a trip that my wife would enjoy?!?!?!

TIL Sweetwater has retail stores. I always thought they were just an online seller. Looks really nice!

My GearFest plans got shot down alongside Experience 2020, but I am going to get there (both) one of these days! Been dealing with Sweetwater forever, Chris Leonard has been my rep for a long time and has treated me right.

Great pics, too!

Do they have better candy in the store?

Want a definition of insanity? Walking through those doors with a credit card on one’s person.

No, but the tacos are to die for.

There are times I wish I lived back in the midwest, and I'd love to have access to this place. Thanks for sharing!

Absolutely. There have been times in my life where I've walked into a store and it felt like a vacuum hose was attached to my wallet

Hey "Top, thanks for posting those pics here. Man, what a beautiful store - I could really go nuts there. How was their amp room?

I'm truly impressed!

That is a gorgeous showroom, in fact, beyond gorgeous. Wow.

I promised my wife I wouldn’t spend a lot of time. She waited in the store with me. So, I didn’t spend much time looking at amps, but you can see some in the “guitar and amps pic”. I did notice a large display of Kempers for Les, though.

So did you buy me one, or not?

At least there are tootsie rolls.

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