Bad app . it keeps telling me to update the app but then does not give me the option of updating the app. the app is broken. Worst app that I have. Update....I sent them an email about this widespread problem, which they promptly ignored. This has been going on for so long ( with so many people) that I don't think Guitar Center really wants my business

Well, I love the fact that it crashes so often that it is funny. It is nice a game how many seconds until the app crashes or says the wait or close app. So, it is a waste of time using the app. Either just call the store or do like me and just shop somewhere else for new and used gear. Looks like one more win for Sweetwater. I love my local guitar center but they are busy so easier to order online but now will just avoid.

The app is good I have no complaints about it it is a little slow sometimes and I do get a message saying connection problems, but over all it's a good app to find out if your nearest store has what you need. I think if they had instrument specific techs on line to help out with question that could be something to make you have a little better experience for beginner musicians or people into music period. There isn't anything like going into the store and hearing the equipment live.
