£2k brand new LP Custom?

Granted it's Richlite, but still. Praise Allah that Thomann don't do finance for UK customers.

    By my reckoning someone on here needs to sell me a used one for £1k. :-)

  • get an Epiphone you wont know the difference :-P

    The Bigsby was the first successful design of what is now called a whammy bar or tremolo arm, although vibrato is the technically correct term for the musical effect it produces. In standard usage, tremolo is a rapid fluctuation of the volume of a note, while vibrato is a fluctuation in pitch. The origin of this nonstandard usage of the term by electric guitarists is attributed to Leo Fender, who also used the term “vibrato” to refer to what is really a tremolo effect.

    Would any retailer in the UK price match and finance this?

    I know Andertons definitely won't.

    I am for now.

    I haven't mentioned weight, original paf specifications, neck tenons, fretboard material, neck angle and nashville vs TOM yet though...

    oh and I think I am meant to say Tokais are better for half the price etc :-P

    Fuzz Guitars in Nottingham have one in for £2149.

    DV247 had them in for £2347 until they sold out now prices are back up again.


    Not that I've been looking obviously.

    Exactly, Im amazed that while Henry J spends money on Robot Guitars & auto tuners. It would be a more prudent investment to hire a Quality Control Manager from Hoshino Gakki or PRS?

  • I saw this and a white one the other day and couldn't believe the prices! wish i had the money to buy one now!

    I'd also be interested to see if GAK or someone could price match/finance too.
