Anyone see any bargains in the sale? Was in today and the two bloody midi-control keyboards I wanted were all sold out...

However, they're selling the Novation A-Station e5 cheaper than Thomann

and the Korg microKontrol for 300 - e53 cheaper than Thomann (although the pre-sale price was e549 :eek: )

First time I've been upto the hi-tech section there and the dudes couldn't be nicer - a lot better than the todgers in the guitar section.

Yeah, they're really helpful up there. Willing to take time with people like me who are a bit sketchy on this new fangled high tech stuff.

I was in on Saturday (forgot to post it here) and they didn't have much then and the sale was only on a few hours at that stage. Most of it was just stuff they couldn't shift normally (as you'd expect from a sale).

Got an email from them last week. They sent me the list of everything that was on sale. Got me an Ashdown amp, a crybaby and a marshall blues breaker. Great stuff had to que for half an hour before it opened on Saturday. Twas mad. Saved about 500 euro.

Shes a bute. The ABM with an EVO2 head was half price from 1550 to 850 for the 2X10 and 1269 to 699 for the 15" just couldnt afford it so I got mine for 350 down from 700.

Bargainalicious. You got yourself a lovely amp (as I'm sure you're already know!). The only Ashdowns that were left when I got there were those Peacemaker guitar amps which are a bit **** in my opinion.

Yeah I was hoping to get the 15" but they only had the 2X10". There what I use in the studio I use around the corner. I absolutily love them. I was thinking of getting the fallen angel they had on sale...

I just need to get my hands on some good bass effects now. Probably wait till after christmass though, wait for the funds get back to me. Might get some more vouchers for christmass.

I would have jumped on the Fallen Angel if they had still had it when I got there. Damn me and my laziness.
