If you spy any cheap Musical Equipment, please put it in here along with any links and expiry dates. Thanks to voodoo_child for the idea.

well, music maker have been having a sale since last week, the prices are quite decent, i only looked at tele's but the mexican ones were beating X music's price and the american ones were under €1000

Also the variax's are dirt cheap, around the 400 mark from 700 for Pod owners

BarryCreed

great idea!

I'll keep my eyes peeled for jazzmasters...

Voodu Child

Its more of an anti-bargain alert (:pac:) but apparently Gibson and Epiphone prices are rising by 20% next week. So anyone who had been planning on maybe picking something up before Christmas should keep an eye on the prices or contact your dealer or whatever.

Great Euro/Sterling rate at the moment (for buying gear from the UK) FWIW.
€1 = £0.85 :pac:

I can recommend this seller. Got 4 packs of elixirs delivered for €32 within a week, with free sweets!

Equivalent price incl delivery with Thomann: €62 (actual product cost ex shipping is €47).

They were even cheaper a few months ago, I got an Epiphone Les Paul Custom off them in July, possibly August, for £389, now £529. They were very good to deal with, they let me play a Gibson Les Paul Custom while I was looking at the Epi, that was £1999 at the time, I think it's around 2.3K now

Thats good to know. I was looking at some of their Ibanez range and they are priced the same as on gak.co.uk, the cheapest online source I can find.

I might pay them a visit soon.

PRS SE EG £195 (~€210) plus shipping

http://www.guitarguitar.co.uk/electric_guitars_detail.asp?stock=08022614040728

It wouldn't be my cup of tea, but those PRS SEs are good quality guitars and for that kind of money its a great deal. Doesnt say a lot about them (are they ex-demo etc.) or even if it was a limited offer thats expired, but at that price, doesnt cost anything to ask.

Voodu Child

It seems like theres a lot of interest in nabbing bargains from the UK what with Sterling falling a lot lately, so heres a few good UK guitar shops for comparing prices:
GAK
Coda Music
Sounds Great Music
Guitar Guitar
MachineHead Music
Andertons

There are a lot more that I can't think of, so anyone who wants to add to the list please do.

Nice one. I`ve had a look at the ones listed and found "my" guitar for £635.99 + delivery on andertons, which they quoted me £30, bringing the total to £665.99 as opposed to the current gak price of £869!

I dont want to seem like I picking on gak, but I was so disappointed with the huge increase.

Anyway I sent gak another e-mail with a link to the andertons price and asked them could they match it.:D

The only slightly awkward thing with andertons is they want a bank transfer rather than CC payment. Anyone dealt with them before?

There's a sale on in Instrumental on the Quays.

I havent been there in years, not a fan of the shop, so I don't know what kind of value is to be had. But some sort of sale anyway, pop in and have a look if you're interested.

Wow, is that 20% off the listed price?

There's quite a few Gibson Robots going there which seem pretty cheap though I'm not sure what the going rate for those is at the moment.
e.g. this SG:

~€835 ex vat

I know nothing about PRS but I can't imagine this is a bad price:
Blah, just search for em.
There's a couple ~€300 / €370 ex vat.


etc, etc....

With 144 pages on the UBOX at the moment we really need a seperate thread for it.

Grrr, links aren't static - edited in info

P.S. How do you post an image as a thumbnail here? If a mod wants to do it for me feel free, that ^^^ is too large IMO

Including tax JPY 207,900<---TAX included
Tax removal (JPY 198,000)<---TAX exempted

It says that at the bottom of the page. International customers pay the cheaper price. There's a Martin 00028 for €1573. Knock the 20% and it looks tempting, though with duties and all it would add up

Bought a Gibson Les Paul from them in '06 (when they still sold them) and there was a delivery charge to Ireland if I remember correctly. I had email exchanges with their guitar man about Gibsons and unlike most other sites at the time he had a picture of the exact gutiar I'd be buying so I was able to see the finish which was the selling point.

This looks a bit like spam doesn't it ? Albeit perhaps friendly spam. You've got Euro pricing which is a plus and it seems like it's relevant to the current currency exchange. Don't see a Laser sign though so you get minus points there.

Funny, when you select Ireland as the country (top right hand corner) you get a flashing banner saying "Ireland's cheapest bestest most amazing site" , or something similar. Then when you select UK the banner changes to a UK's lowest pricest banner
