| - I drive all the way from Vaughan to buy from this store and have been for years. The staff are great. They bend over backwards to get what you need. They aren't on commission so the advise you'll get is sound. (Excuse the pun :-) I love the fact that I can try whatever I want and I have 30 days to bring it back if I don't like it; no questions asked, for any kind of musical instrument or gear. That's huge.
Over the years I've accumulated a ton of guitars and gear. Because of their great trade-in program, I've always been able offset the cost of a lot of new gear with trade-ins.
Next, as a part of a gigging band you need a place where you can rent reliable gear at a reasonable price. So there is no need to own the more expensive gear, (lights or larger pieces of a PA, etc) Because of this, I know we can do a gig of any size. Plus the fact that you can rent from one location and take it back to any other location comes in handy.
Finally... selection, availability and price. When you call and ask if they have something in stock, they check their own inventory. If they don't have have it, they check the other 50 locations across Canada. If they don't have it, they can usually get pretty quick and at a great price because unlike other stores, when they order from a vendor, they have the buying power of 50+ locations.
I highly recommend. L&M in general but the Mississauga location specifically.
