Default Buying a Fender...

Does anyone know what the Fender equivalent of Guitar Rodeo is in terms of price, service, customer satisfaction, etc?

Acoustic or electric? On the electric side, there are plenty. A couple that come to mind are Dave's Guitar Shop in LaCrosse, WI (www.davesguitar.com) and Wildwood Guitars in Louisville, CO (www.wildwoodguitars.com). Another great place is Fazio's Frets & Friends in St. Louis (www.faziosmusic.com).

I assumed electric since we're on the electric branch of AGF and, to me, Fender=electric guitars. Thanks for the info.

I have not bought a guitar from Wildwood but I have gotten some other gear from them. Fantastic service, can't say enough about that. I think their prices on guitars are pretty much the norm for Fender dealers. They also have one of the best selections when it comes to Custom Shop stuff.

I've had good experiences with Chuck Levin's Washington Music Center in Wheaton MD. Ask for Paul Schein or Tod Eliot...

Dave's Guitar Shop in La Crosse, Wisconsin is usually my first stop for my needs. Talk to sales rep Laun. He IS the salt of the earth --- courteous, knowledgeable, and professional. Regards.......Kabookie
