Any thoughts on MCC overall ???

Be careful with prices at MCC, they like to show you the "list" price and then try to wow you with how much money you're "saving". But the list price is like the "suggested retail price" and it's usually quite a bit higher than any reasonable store would sell a guitar for.

So a guitar you might see at Long and Maquade for $500, you'll see at MCC for $600, but OH MY GOD! the list price was $1000!!!, so you're "saving" $400!! So buy it now, before someone else does, because it won't last long with the SAVINGS off a suggested price they've put on the tag that no one would ever charge for that guitar.
