It's even worse for girls I think. I saw one the other day who was a beginner, but not at all bad really, in a sort of Oasis-Brit Pop kind of a way. Anyway, she was trying out an Epiphone and this complete cunt of an assistant physically took it out of her hands in order to show her what it could really do. I was fucking horrified, not least because he decided to shred on it, when it was pretty obvious from what she was playing that shredding was not gonna exactly be a priority in her guitar requirements.
For some reason I never had this problem with basses. Besides, everyone knows that you just have to remember the bassline to Psycho Killer and you're away.

i have a problem with people in guitar shops and i don't know if it's because i'm a girl or what, but they leave me alone when i show THEM what the guitar can really do... guitar center (i don't think those exist anywhere outside the US, though) is the worst, i think. probably anyone who's been there will agree.
and for the record, psycho killer was the first thing i ever played on bass.
