New logo, and some new directions!

Well, not exactly NEW directions - but we've posted a "Car's eye view"youtube video dRiving to YAMS from the Zebulon ROad area.



We've had a few people who "didn't know there was a music store there" or weren't quite sure how to get to the store - so here's how!

This was recorded in the Summer of 2011.

6 months SAME AS CASH at YAMS!

Young America Music School now offers 6 months same-as-cash on major purchases at the store. We can get you setup very quickly online - and this offer is good for the life of your "deferred financing" account - i.e. this is NOT a "limited time offer"!

This special financing offer basically means you get the product NOW, and have 6 months to pay off the balance INTEREST-FREE!

[The catch? If you don't pay it off within the 6 months, you'll be charged interest from day 1. We strongly encourage you to get it paid off!]

There is no minimum purchase to get this deal. The maximum amount available will be determined by your credit rating - and we can get this done quickly at the store right then!

For VERY large purchases you could even get TWELVE months same-as-cash - check with Emmett at the store for details.

You know that Deering Banjo or that Weber Mandolin or the Roland keyboard you've been eyeing? Christmas IS coming quickly!


SPECIAL FINANCING IS YET
ANOTHER REASON WE THINK
YAMS IS THE BEST MUSIC PLACE IN MIDDLE GEORGIA!

Basses Galore......

Christmas is coming and the goose is getting fat....so why not get "phat" with a new bass, fresh from the rack at YAMS? We have several in stock, including an acoustic bass that isn't too expensive, and sounds pretty darn good (especially when paired up with the new ORANGE bass amp in stock!)

The new signage on the building really pops out as you are driving down Zebulon Road - we've had several people come by the store in the last week saying, "I never knew you were here, and I live in those apartments back there!"

You'll see the new logo popup on the website "real soon now" .
