Yes you can get your money back, no store credit.....I bought an $1600.00 guitar there and brought it home for three weeks I couldn't figure out what it was about the sound but I didn't like it when I got it home....so for three weeks I played it thinking that I was too use to my other guitars....but not so....so I took it back, no problem, you can return guitars up to thirty days....their great about returns....I love that store, I could spend hours in there just sitting around and playing and watching others play !!!!!!!!!!!

Check their website , they must have a copy of their return policy in online form there , i suppose.

You might be able to. You can try. Just make sure youi have your reciept & credit card slip with you too. They are pretty cool with stuff like that. Just explain to them your case and ask them if they can hook you up with that same model guitar you saw somewhere else. Have you also tried getting that acoustic /electric guitar from Guitar Center too? They do carry most major brands of guitars. You might have to special order it and they do special order items for people.
I know this real well because I've been doing business with them since 2005. I've spent about $1000 in there already.
Good luck and hope this helped you a little to solve your problem.

BEWARE Of The Guitar Center On Rt. 30 In Joliet, IL !!! I've Been To OTHER Guitar Centers & Had A Good Experience...But The Guitar Center In Joliet Should Not Be Doing Buisness The Way That They Do !!! I Went There 1 Week Ago...Knew EXACTLY What I Wanted & Where It Was In The Store... I Had To STAND THERE For At LEAST 30 Minutes Before I Could Get Someone To Ring Me Up...Then...None Of Their Registers Had CHANGE For My Purchase Which I PAID IN CASH - Turned Into ANOTHER 30 Min. Fiasco !!! Then...I Got Home, Tried To Use The Equipment I Got, Had Problems With It...Busy Schedule Made Me Wait A Few Days Before I Could Go Back & Address This Issue...So I CALLED Them 1st Before Driving Back Out There To Verify Wether Or Not I Could Get A REFUND, So I Didn't Have To WAIST MY TIME - AGAIN !!! - I Get There...Stood At The Counter For AGAIN - AT LEAST 30 Min. - While The "Paged A Manager To The Front" - Who NEVER SHOWED By the way...To Be Told After A Total Of Almost An Hour of WASTING MY TIME - AGAIN..."We're Sorry Sir...We Can ONLY ISSUE A CHECK For ANY Refunds (Even CASH Paid Purchases)...But There's Something Wrong With Our Computer System & We Can't Give You A Check Today" !!! - WTF !!! - I CALLED 1st, - Was Told A Refund Would Be No Problem, - Waisted An HOUR OF MY TIME - FOR NOTHING !!! "They Told Me..."Yeah...Sorry About That...Try Comming Back Tomorrow (Which Will Be SUNDAY - When NOT A SINGLE 5th/3rd Bank Will Be Open To Cash This REFUND CHECK - if I EVEN Get It...) & We'l Get Your Check For You Later...Sorry" - SORRY JUST DOESN'T CUT IT !!! That was VERY UNPROFESSIONAL on their part...& Every Time You Walk In The Store... You Have To WAIT FOREVER For One Of The MANY Employees There To Help You !!! - I WILL NEVER SHOP AT THIS GUITAR CENTER AGAIN & WOULD STRONGLY ADVISE ANYONE WHO VALUES THERE TIME & $MONEY$ - TO - DO THE SAME !!! - They NEED TO GET IT TOGETHER OVER THERE !!! - I Will Never Even Consider Guitar Center Again After The BAD TASTE This Whole Ordeal Has Left In My Mouth...& I've SPENT THOUSANDS There (Different Locations) In The Past On ALL KINDS OF EQUIPMENT !!! - You'd Think That THEY WOULD TRY TO KEEP A FAITHFUL CUSTOMER HAPPY !!! - Well...I Guess Not !!! - Not Very Good Buisness Ethics If You Ask Me !!! - Looks Like I'll Be Spending A Lot Of Money At SAM ASH From Now On In The Future !!!
