On Saturday, June 17th, Island Music Company in La Plata, MD hosted the most successful Taylor Guitar “Find Your Fit” Event to date. They brought nationally known, Mid & South Atlantic Taylor Guitars representative, Don Rodrigues out from California to help, “Find Your Fit!” for the summer.
Even for the most experienced guitarists, guitar shopping can be incredibly overwhelming. Especially at a boutique dealer like Island Music Company where they have over 100 Taylor Guitars in stock! IMC and Taylor guitars teamed up to make this a great event for guitar enthusiasts from all over the mid-Atlantic region. Expert Taylor guitar representative Don Rodrigues said, “throughout the day, there was an even flow of customers. They were very excited to get ‘one on one’ expert guidance on finding their perfect guitar! We also educated and inspired many customers that are in the early research stages of buying a guitar.”
Keith Grasso, owner of Island Music Company was ecstatic with the success of this event and said, “this was our most successful Taylor, ‘Find Your Fit’ Event! We are very excited to see how enthusiastic customers are to come to the store and experience our Island Music brand of in-store events. In a world of faceless internet shopping, we work very hard to create a special instrument buying experience. We want to make sure customers can be part of a community and have an exciting, positive and educational purchasing experience, they will remember for a lifetime. This is the reason so many of us got into the business in the first place!”
Jack McNutt, IMC’s store manager, has always been a big fan of these events and most importantly educating their customers and sharing his passion for guitars in person. “The positive outcome of this event reinforces my belief that there isn’t any amount of internet sales or phone browsing that will ever beat the experience of visiting your local music store to find the perfect guitar! These events are special to me. Selling guitars may pay the bills, but I’m passionate about the education behind choosing a guitar and the experience that goes into buying one. That’s what these events are all about! Throughout the day, we saw longtime customers, new customers and even visitors from out of state all come in to “Find their Fit” and leave with a new guitar or two,” said Jack.
