From a cursory examination of their web site, Musician's Friend seems to
have about the same pricing structure as WWBW had. It will be interesting to
see if their prices increase without the WWBW competition. George

I have been reading with interest all of the comments and letters about WWBW
and I must say that it does not really matter why they went out of business.
What matters is that a good company is now no longer with us and that is a
shame.

I have dealt many times over the years with them and never had a problem of
any kind. I was more than pleased with every item I purchased as were my
students and professional colleagues.

Personally I shall miss this company very much.
