It never is. Not since the great R8 run of 2018!

£974 - strange amount. Almost £3 grand when they came out 10 years ago. Didn't hold their value well.

Looking at the prices of the latest relic arrivals from the Custom Shop at Coda I would say not.....£4149?

B-stock Fender player strat for £469, £69 more than a new one was going for on Black Friday

PMT (as usual) puts a small handful of headline deals up and then a bunch of “it was actually always this price, it now just has a “sale” badge” to fill out the sale section.

Weird, when the sale was first launched yesterday I took a look at that and it sold shortly later - seems back in stock now. Someone had a change of heart before it went out the door I hope...

Get the feeling fender have hiked prices at the wrong time. Some of the cs is going to be hard to shift at those prices.
I wouldn’t mind a 72 tele thinline, but peach have one at £4249, coda at £3699. Ouch

I was looking at this just yesterday... https://www.pmtonline.co.uk/b-stock-ibanez-az242bc-electric-guitar

But I told myself I have to stick with these lessons before I even considered another guitar... Damnit.

Those prices were eye watering before everything in the world went crazy...

I think a bit part of it might be the exchange rate currently. The pound is incredibly weak vs the dollar right now.

Think they’ll be lots of stores offering sales now but can’t see many parting with large sums of cash at this time
