As a local of BHM I\u2019ve been to Highland Music many times over the last 10 years or so. They\u2019ve always had an interesting selection of gear. You\u2019ll see the usual flow of second-hand gear pass through. It seems like a popular place to sell your guitar or amp on consignment. Highland also has some neat vintage stuff. They have several vintage CBS era Strats hanging out behind the counter. They have always managed to have a few other vintage Fenders too. They even have a literal wall of vintage Fender Champ amps that include tweed, blackface, and silverface era examples. So why the low score you ask?<\/p>\n
The problem with Highland music is the people working there consistently give customers a negative experience. These guys are unknowledgeable in the gear they carry-not the biggest deal. That would be easily forgiven if it weren\u2019t for their habit of just making up stuff to sound smart when they don\u2019t have an answer. What\u2019s worse than this is their attitude toward customers. Don\u2019t bother asking to play one of those cool vintage guitars. You will only be met with a snide remark about how you probably can\u2019t afford it. Both myself and friends have experienced this kind of rude talk from Highland Music, and it\u2019s honestly lead to our decision of willfully not spending our money there.<\/p>\n
I do not intend on bashing this store. I am not an angry internet troll, and this is not that kind of post. I genuinely want to see Highland Music succeed. Despite the faults I have complained about, I think it is the coolest guitar store we have in BHM. I would love to see these sort of things change.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
