Like most things, it depends.
I saw a Strat that costs $2600 in SG going for $2400 there, but conversely I saw stuff that cost more than it does here.
At the end of the day, it's just an expansion of range of items to choose from - prices are all swings and roundabouts wherever you go.

If you want, you can check out this big guitar shop in Siam Square.. They got really cool guitars and effects. Price wise, sorry , i didn't ask.
If you want good drums and percussion, there used to be one shop in Petchburi Road. Likewise, I jsut browsed abit. Slowly find, sure can find one.

Hey there i'm currently in Bangkok as well. Been searching for guitar shops myself and these are what I've found so far, hope it helps!
Werng Nakhonkasern area, Charoenkrung Soi 10:
Congregation of shops-- possibly about 10 of them in the area. Pretty messy place, but worth dropping by.
Music collection at Siam Discovery Centre:
Next to MBK, should be an easy find. Pretty small range though..
Haven't stopped by any others, couldn't find the one at Siam Square!
