I dont have a lot of cash for up front, so looking for a site that has their own CC they offer....I know of MF.com and GC.com. few others as well....Just curious if there are any others that I'm not aware of.

I'm looking for a decent pair of IEM's, mainly Sennheisers if I can, maybe another powered monitor.
 
MF, GC, Sweetwater, Music 123, Zounds, Etc etc. I would just look around and see if anyone is offering no interest payments spread out over a year or something, that way, you can pay it off over time.

Sweetwater. Don't even consider those other guys.


They all pretty much use the same financer, GM money bank or something, so really, the card doesn't matter.
 
Sweetwater has been great, also woodwind and Brass treated me right.
 
For new purchases I would also have to say sweetwater. I've had the same rep for the past few years and he's been really helpful and usually matches or gives me discounts on things. Usually at least 10-20% depending on what.
 
I have been a LONG time sweetwater customer. I like that I deal with the same person, you know who to go to. However, I haven't really had a bad experience anywhere. Sweetwater really trumps up their customer service, and its decent, but most repudable places will be fine to work with. Any financing will be through a 3rd party company anyway.
 
MF.com for me, just because I've always been able to get them to knock off 20% or more on bigger purchases ($1K and up), after one way or another. Sometimes takes a lil' doing, but after I browbeat them enough, they generally cave.
 
Sweetwater.....they'll put some candy in the box with your stuff.
Good candy too.

Zzounds lets you use your own credit card.
Really for paying off gear on payments? I'll have to look into that. :thumbsup:

I typically use sweetwater and musicians friend. Never had an issue with either of them.
 
I'll put in a vote for zzounds.com Ordered my Eventide Timefactor from them recently. You do pay with your own credit card, but it's 4 payments to pay off the total of your order.

yes sweetwater will call me and make sure that everything is alright after any purchase, and they give personalized service,

idk why they treat me so well, i've told them that they don't have too, but whatever i do appreciate it

i guess i'm a masochist, idk whatever

i like pain?!

jk

sweetwater for the win!
 
Another nod goes to Sweetwater for me.
I've ordered heads and cabs from them (Mesa and EVH) and they even covered half the return shipping when I didn't like them :rock:
 
I have used all of the big ones with no issues. The Exception to that is music123.com I would never use them again. I was burned twice by them. First was I did not get my complete order and it took me 2 months to get it corrected and the 2nd time I did not receive my preamp until over a month had passed. It is not worth going through them to save $2
 
Depends what you are looking for. I like to use small privately owned businesses like Luxxtone,juststrings.com,Tonefactor and US Speaker. But for amps and bigger stuff Id say sweetwater.
 
If they have what I need in stock I'll always use Sweetwater. Cannot beat their customer service, price and of course....THE CANDY!!!!
