    Sterling hit 90p to the euro today. Time to take a visit to our friends at gak.co.uk

    All plans of my bacchus/tokai LP are out the window and I have my eye on another jap guitar from gak thats working out about 300-350 cheaper than musicstore/thomann.

    If anyone spots any particularly good bargains to be had please post them here

    They do charge shipping but its something like £25 for a guitar. Not something you really have to worry about with gak. Free shipping on certain things

    Cracking amp I picked up recently is a steal on GAK:

    Some places across the border are already advertising that €1 = £1 in their windows to help entice people across...

    but its not very patriotic to do that of corse!

    Probably the only lefty they have that I looked at twice, the selection isnt huge tbh


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,302 ✭✭✭-=al=-


    i would like one, with a pickup change it could be a nice machine, hey its a lefty that isnt black! mahogony body, flamed maple top, medium frets, nice thickness neck and scale, trems alrite, its worth a look if ur a lefty, last years model was blue, the year before was orange, this is by far the nicest colour going for it

    and the selection is never huge! usualy 3 or 4 ****y guitars


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,204 ✭✭✭Kenny_D

    I have been staring at this for the last two weeks and every day its getting that little bit cheaper. I reckon it would cost me under €750 delivered. €999 on thomman.

    Free delivery on this one too!

    soundslive.co.uk is another good uk site,bought a few things off them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,658 ✭✭✭Patricide

    Getting back into guitar after i pretty much stopped playing due to college commitments. decided to treat myself to this:

    full_guitar.jpg

    fender_headstock.jpg

    In stores in Ireland ( not naming any store directly) i was quoted over the phone roughly 1500 for the American Deluxe Strat. Got it on GAK for a little over 900 euros. the money saved will be spent on an amp eventually.

    Well the smoked chrome stuff could be black...........


    Or did you want the 'ol Nigel Tufnell "None, none more black":D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,578 ✭✭✭jimi_t


    I've always been of the Hotblack Desatio school of design :D

    I've been gassing over one for about 3 years, and I've money coming in...I'm tempted to wait till January though to see if the exchange rate will hit par; the exchange rate you get on a credit card is never as good as proper exchange rates. Not like they're going to sell out of Aerodynes in the meantime.

    (OT : Started a similar bargain thread in Music Production - Some great kit to be had, esp. mics and studio monitors)

    Well I was just talking about the body, but I suppose you could get black tuners, bridge, knobs, pickups without pole pieces, strings and frets! :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,528 ✭✭✭OK-Cancel-Apply


    I can't take it! Stop it!!!

    Come on lads, we don't need any gear right now! I know for a fact that most of you have at least 5 or 6 guitars and/or basses. As Mr Burns would no doubt agree, you'd be happier WITH the dollar!


    Ok..I'm off to get that Red Special!
