I too was lured by the Nocaster blowout pricing feeding frenzy a few weeks ago, and thanks to TGP, serendipitously ended up in contact with my area's GC regional manager.
Anyway, his advice at that time: what was left of the Nocasters probably were left for a reason--but there were some CS Strats in the system being blown-out if I was interested.
Well, I'm a sucker for relic Strats, and there were some relic 65's in Shoreline Gold. He said he'd have one sent to my local GC to check out. And a few days later I get word from him that they have one there all set up and ready for me to check out.
I visit the store the next day, get shown to the "quiet" room, have an amp brought to me, and left alone. Needless to say, I now have the guitar.
The entire experience was excellent from start to finish: good communication, service, and price---very professional all around. GC is easy to dog pile, I know, but this experience really changed my mind
