alamak brothers, everything going up la... singapore's inflation measured 4+% last few months...

got one suggestion, buy as many guitars as u can while u r young, store up...
when u old, gibson les paul will cost 1 million
like that then u can retire in peace... and continuing rocking on haha

 

[Dime]

this is where fenders are hot and gotta get one.gibsons will always be gibsons,plain expensive.

 

[niteblade]

awww everybodies pro fender here

 

[subversion]

Pro-Fender? I'm pro-any brand name which price their wares sensibly. of course, quality is pre-requisite.

 

[niteblade]

yeah makes sense

i tried a few single coil fenders and it didnt really suit me though

 

[xklusivly4u]

Dollar is going down against all major currencies hence all guitars prices will go up this year, not sure how Fender manage tho.

 

[Ripper]

can anyone recommend me a new production model that i can keep for the next 50 years, and it price will go up to the half-million mark?

=Ripper

any guitar with diamond and gold..

Maybe oil.

 

[doggieshaman]

yes, you can make a guitar out of full solid gold and diamond inlays instead of wood. who cares if the sound sucks or the guitar doesn't sustain? The whole point is to make the guitar not fall in price heheh.

ok i be drunk/headache/crazy
