Guitars Center, Musician's Friend and Music & Arts are all owned by the same parent company.
From here:
That explains much, IMO about Music & Arts locations and what they do, and don't stock.
Clarify, please. Are you talking about Sam Ash? If so I'm not finding anything that supports the claim although that just means I am looking in the wrong places.

Heading into the 21st century, The Guitar Center experienced incredible expansion. For example, in 1999, they purchased e-retailer Musician's Friend to offer a robust online option to musicians. And in 2005, they acquired Music & Arts, now the country's largest educational music source providing instruments, lessons and everything musical for students, parents and educators.

I believe the online store and the brick and mortar stores are separate business entities.
