So, here's the thing: I plan to buy an electric guitar. I plan to choose very carefully.

This will, no doubt, involve going and checking out actual, physical guitars.

But I feel weird about doing this given I know I'm not going to be actually buying one for at least about three weeks.

While, at the same time, I think it's probably best I do my research before I'm in a position to buy one, because this way I can't make a hasty decision in a fit of enthusiasm...

So. Time to overcome my "feeling weird" and go check out guitars, I think. I can perfectly well tell the shopfolk: "I'm looking at electric guitars. I want to choose carefully, so I'm not buying one today - I'm doing research to work out what I want to buy." If they have a problem with that... their service standard is inadequate. Because "I'm going to make an expensive purchase, and I wish to choose CORRECTLY," should be met with co-operation if they want me to make that purchase from them.

If they're unco-operative jerks, then clearly, they do not want my money enough. Certainly, they're not inspiring trust that they'll be good after the fact.

All this despite the fact that the guys at the guitar shop I usually go to are pretty cool, seriously...

*sigh*
