    been having a look around, thinking of retiring my Xplorer and getting a new guitar. Have all the games so really want to just get a guitar on it's own.

    Most I've seen seem to be around the 50-80 mark :mad:

    That's pretty damn cheap. On a side note, I believe you can get the drums in gamestop for about €40

    I've seen those boxes in the shop and figured it was just for display, id easily manage that on the bus.

    SMYTHS IN GALW- *cough* oh excuse me, something in my throat there.

    The Smyths in Galway had the same offer as well, so I'm going to go out on a limb here and say every Smyths minus your one had them.
