Rudy's Music Soho

I had such high hopes for this place... I've heard so many stories about famous musicians coming here to buy guitars, and really thought this would be a great stop for a guitar lover. What I found out was that if you aren't a famous musician, they probably won't talk to you in here. I saw 3 different employees, and not one of them greeted me, asked if they could help me, etc. I spent about 20 minutes looking at the wall and trying to read the markings on the cases stored overhead, but apparently I was a ghost. Little did they know that I am a guitar collector, and they probably missed a sale that day. They were too busy talking about getting some cake from the back room to greet the only customer in their store on a rainy day in NYC. After visiting Rudy's, I'd rather spend my money at a Guitar Center- and that says a lot.
