Members Tidal Rhythm Posted November 30, 2012 Members Share Posted November 30, 2012 Just go pluck around on the Heritage. The sound of those Lollars will make you feel better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Yavin Posted November 30, 2012 Members Share Posted November 30, 2012 Yeah, playing my guitar with lollars tend to make me happy and really quells the GAS pains. When you have that one special guitar already, it just makes it easier to pass a deal that would be just a different flavor of what you already have.So your prescription is more Lollar!!

Members Alecto Posted November 30, 2012 Members Share Posted November 30, 2012 My prescription: take two Lollars and call me in the morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members harold heckuba Posted November 30, 2012 Members Share Posted November 30, 2012 That was a good deal, but probably not a great deal. Those will probably be even cheaper after X-mas. Probably a wise move on your part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members craigny Posted November 30, 2012 Members Share Posted November 30, 2012 As long as you have the Heritage...you just saved alot of coin.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, yes......and I had thought of putting the heritage up for sale....but Thankfully, my Bro-in-Law talked some sense into me (he owns several new Gibson's) and he pointed out the obvious that the Heritage would be way more guitar than the traditional LP.....so I am keeping the Heritage.What I may do is save up and when the next round of uber deals appear...I will snap up a LP standard or Traditional just to get a Humbucker LP.

No way I would have cancelled that. No need to sell your Heritage either: flip the hell out it! Originally Posted by 67mike PS: If you can get me one cheaper...please show me how....I will buy it now. Maybe, but you'll cancel it before it ships.Personally, the 2012 LP Standard in Blue Mist deal is far better for those who got the price match and $450 GC.

Yeah, I agree that's the best deal this week. My blowout haul was a LP Deluxe GT from zZounds for $1199 and a Trad Mahogany Satin for $1000.

If for some reason it came across as me bragging about the deal....that was not my intention. I made the post as I am kinda bummed that I passed up that deal......my wallet is happy though.And once again, thanks for the titties, they always cheer me up.

Actually it was a $525 GC (the $150 off code at Sam Ash worked on the Blue Mist Standard bringing it down to $1449 for a $1050 price difference).
