  • Wow! 

    VOS R8 and plenty of them for 2499 plus they've got custom shop strats at 2199/ 2399/ 2499.

    I'm guessing sales are slow at the moment!

    I don't need anything but I'm still tempted...

    Bloody hell, some of those are gorgeous. When it comes to trade ins are either Peach or GuitarGuitar noticeably more generous?

    guitarguitar are tighter than a badgers ****. I'm a long term regular customer, easily bought well over 50 guitars from them over the years. Long term loyal customer because their CS is tip top and because of that I trust them, but when it comes to trade in, forget it, tight wads, probably the worst.

    I don't doubt the good experiences you've had @MikeS but on the two occasions I've had to use GuitarGuitar their service has been contemptuous.

    So much so that I would rather stick a prize winning pineapple up my arse sideways than use them again!

    Oh well, maybe it's because I am a regular then, but any problem I've ever had has been sorted instantly. I will say though, I maybe look at it in a different way, my local GG shop (Edinburgh) are pointless to deal with direct. They make you stand too long, I'm in my 40's, to me it's a shop, not a social club, I don't want to faff about, but they seem to love faffing about, they seem to enjoy making all discussed figures 'obviously' in their favour, so much so that you feel proper shafted every single time without fail. Everything takes an age to get done, and like I say I've bought well over 50 guitars from them, and they still don't know me from Adam when I walk in.

    But... I don't deal with GG locally like that anymore, I deal direct with head office in Newcastle. Any deal I want I contact them, any issues I contact them, the only reason I would ever have to set foot in my local Edinburgh store is purely for a point of pick up if the guitar was showing in stock there, but being the awkward local store it is they would probably hold that against you if you had an issue because you picked the guitar up. You're better doing everything online and having it delivered. But I try and avoid going to the Edinburgh store like the plague.

    Do you get the impression they're trying to off load them etc.

    Gibson are trying to sell as much as possible at the moment!

    That's what I was thinking. If I was in the market for one I'd go for it :)
