Post the best deals here!

The only thing that has caught my eye so far is a G&L Bluesboy in LPB for £399 at Andertons.

Not a specific deal but Rich Tone have the chat feature enabled again this year so if there isn’t anything in the sale you want chat to them about what it is you do want and they’ll sort you out some kind of deal. 

I got 10% off a Shaun Morgan Schecter that’s special order only. They change the price on the website for you. Saved me £70.

Richtone have some decent discounts on high end Les Pauls - 34% R8/R9

The Music Man Steve Morse Dark Lord is tempting me at £1699.

Just don't tell @DrCornelius ;


oops.

Waves have a free VU meter.
Not overly useful for me due to screen space in DAWs already being used up

Go on, the neck alone is worth it. 
It'll save me buying it too!

So those SG Future Tributes @ GAK - is it easy enough to fit normal tuners to them or more hassle than it's worth? Other than the tuners and slightly bling chrome hardware are they a proper SG for all intents and purposes?

Whitecat

Reidys has a few proper deals. Gretsch Penguin DC in a slightly odd colour for £1k off. A Takamine Pro-Series dreadnought for £500 even.

Richtone has the Bigsby-equipped Revstar for £495. 

Need to look at Peach now...

Modellista

I just pulled the trigger on a satin S2 Vela from GAK.  I regret not getting my hands on a regular Vela when they were doing them at £799 so at £895 for a limited satin it had to be worth a punt.  Had my eyes on them for a while.  @grungebob have you seen these?  I know you're in the market for one.

Also I reckon this is an excellent guitar for cheap money - the Ibanez Roadcore are solid guitars, this thinline version with a neck single coil seems like a really nice instrument.  A brilliant buy for a Christmas box for a beginner.

The high-end stuff doesn't seem as impressive a deal, although I suppose if it's something you've been holding out for on the discount list you'll be pleased.  Case in point - this Gretsch, which I've been keeping my eye on as a purchase, with a repaired neck, is hardly worth the money they're asking as it is.  Certainly not a big Black Friday discount.

If you can get them to retroactively pricematch they're £852 here: http://www.peachguitars.com/search.php?q=vela&search-submit=

I’m looking for a Boss MD-500, hoping to get one for below the £290 mark if possible.

Let me know if you spot one!

Thanks

Haha, have you tried the chat on Rich Tone and asking them to beat it? Might be worth a shot?

I might just give them a go, although their starting price is £349, so I reckon I’d be driving a hard bargain!
