kidblast Posted November 22, 2013 Author Share Posted November 22, 2013 Perhaps, or - trying to move things along during the Christmas season. I think the stores did this last year (and just before black friday too). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pippy Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Those prices make us here in the UK want to cry.... Some of those LPs are incredible. The Koa topped ones are beautiful; the bird's-eye maple ditto and, although I'm not usually a 'quilt' guy, there are some absolute stunners there. Just as well I don't live in the States; the Xmas 'pot' would be gone by now........ P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidblast Posted November 22, 2013 Author Share Posted November 22, 2013 Pippy,, I hear ya brutha.. The Koa top.. HOLY smokes.. had I not just bought a Mustang IV (v1 during that blowout) a few weeks ago... a FedEx truck would be making it's way to my doorstep in a few days....

pippy Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 ...Walk away from the "Add to Cart" button... LOL! Yes, I know what you mean, kidblast! It was much worse after I noticed the "We have X of these online. Choose your favourite!" dialog box on the left hand side... Must Switch Off NOWWW.......... P.

Hi Eldo I buy a lot of stuff from Sweetwater... I cannot recommend them highly enough, FANTASTIC to do bizz with. IMHO - they beat Musicians Friend for service and setup, and they do a FAR better job packaging orders, especially guitars. In this aspect, Musicians friend does a lousy job, even if you pay for expedited shipping. it's a miracle a few guitars I got from them survived UPS. /ray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie brown Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Intersting, though...that yesterday (Nov.21st) some of those prices were even lower...now, they've raised them about 150 bucks, from yesterday's. My dealer routinely sells at, or very near those "sale" prices, everyday. They're not going out of business, by doing that, either. So, the normal (non-sale) "big box" discounts are decent, but not outstanding prices. Their sale prices, are about where they should be, all the time, considering their buying leverage, due to their larger quantities...IMHO.

buliwyf Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Decent prices I think American music has them for $729.00. I have been wanting a 70's Les Paul tribute with the dirty fingers pickups since I saw them. The only thing I dont like about a lot of the tribute LP's are they dont have pick guards and I really dig the pick guard on a LP.I guess I could just buy one and put it on myself or maybe sweetwater could put one on for me.Oh yea I can live without the mini tuner on mine and given the choice I dig the sunburst or I did I see a white one.Money is a bit short but as much as I really like my PRS SE Santana it might go up for sale so I can get a 70 LP,I admit it Iv'e always been a Gipson LP guy.

badbluesplayer Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Sweetwater's the best!!! I've bought I think 3 new guitars from them. Like my flyer says, "Call Ryan Murphy at Sweetwater for the best deals." (He's my guy. Tell him Jon(ny Sheetcake) Waldo sent you.) They have the pix of the actual guitars right there and you can browse thru them. They might have, say, four of each that you can see pix of for each model, but they usually have more than that in stock. If you don't see one you want, wait a couple days and see if more stock rotates thru. The customer service is super!! [thumbup] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only ever bought one axw online, but it was Sweetwater and I couldn't have been happier. You get the serial number guitar shown in the photos, they go over the guitar with a 55 point inspection, guarantee it for 2 year and don't charge for shipping. I ordered on a Tuesday afternoon, guitar was delivered Friday at noon and I am in a fairly remote area. Just got an email today on Gibson sale, just LPs and SGs, but great prices and beautiful looking guitars. [thumbup] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabs Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 New models for 2014 ? yup http://www.wildwoodguitars.com/electrics/gibson/2014_gibson_usa_guitars.htm :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie brown Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 yup http://www.wildwoodguitars.com/electrics/gibson/2014_gibson_usa_guitars.htm :) Hmmm, interesting choice of color, on some of the plastic parts. Gold?? The little Melody Maker, is kind of intriguing, to me. CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosemarie Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 You guys are just plain MEAN! I wish I was still able to play so I could justify asking for a new LP for Christmas from the husband! :( Oh well, I guess I just have to soothe myself by reminding myself that we can't live in a guitar.

surfpup Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 There are some pretty nice prices there. An SG for $500(ish) is always a sweet deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
