Welcome to Kyle's Körner!

“If I do one thing today, it will be to write a blog post,” I said to myself in the mirror this morning, “and if I do two things, I’ll also mail my tax return.” I have been procrastinating for a while, because I tend to be a perfectionist and I want our very first blog post to be… perfect. But, at some point, anything is better than nothing, so buckle-up --here we go:

Welcome to the Replay Music Exchange Blog a.k.a. Kyle’s Körner! Our fancy new website (Thank you Pete Williams) comes with a blog feature which I think will be a great way connect with the community and let you know what’s going on behind-the-scenes here at Replay. I’ve got loads of ideas to write about such as:

• Why an otherwise sane, middle-aged, man with a wife and four kids decided to start a guitar retail store.
• My vision for the store and how it all started
• The highly scientific process of picking a store location
• Meet the Replay Team
• Construction Progress (scheduled to be completed in mid-June)
• A peek at our current, temporary facility
• Preview of our Grand Opening celebration
• Featured brands we will carry
• Cool stuff we’ve bought so far
• Our first NAMM show experience
• Why you should sell us your used guitar and how to get started
• Why you should consider buying a used or vintage guitar
• Guitar how-to’s and FAQ’s
• Local Music Scene Updates

So, look for us to address these topics and more here weekly. Once I figure out how to work Mail-Chimp, we will send these out in an e-mail newsletter as well. We have over 400 guitars & basses in stock and our goal is to get them all on our website. We will be adding listings to the website every week (as fast as Cliff & Skyler can key them in), so check back often.

There, I feel much better now that it’s done. That wasn’t so painful, was it? While you are here, please join our e-mail list (top, right corner of page).  Until next time, dear readers, I’ll leave you with an irreverent quote from the late, great, Kurt Cobain:

“If it's illegal to rock and roll, throw my ass in jail!”
