Rather not put the figures up, but it worked out less than staff discount, thanks to GST free sale and Matt's 1337 computering skills! You can nearly work it out yourself if you're that interested...

Suffice to say, I paid more for this than I did for my car. Without discounts, it would have been more than this one and my old one combined :lol:


I can't say thanks enough to Matt though. Fielding daily PM's and then dealing with it in about 2 minutes over the phone. Champion!

Nah, there are special privileges for those of us who are in the right place at the right time :D GST sale was one of the major parts, I suggest making the most of it if you're in Auckland...only one day left!

It's true that Matt and the boss do share a few things in common, and to be honest, I have never seen them in the same room at the same time.

And lots of other goodies...

I should add - nothing like seeing two giant Mesa heads stacked on top of one another while testing. Good times were had, and the guitar brackets were shaking.

Also, most of the new Music Mans (music men?) were looking sexy, except for the one I affectionately dub Piss Drop and the terrible one that Hot_Grits wants a guitar version of...
