Members FckStick Jones Posted February 23, 2008 Members Share Posted February 23, 2008 I bought one for 399 last month. It's a great amp..Not sure if I would recommend it because it's so damm 1 dimensional.It sounds good and is handwired. If you like to play around with pedals in front of the amp.. you might like this. It's a keeper... but it's just a practice amp and nothing more.I was thinking about sending my back to MF.. but since they are running this deal I think I will just get a pricematch. My son got his blackheart 1/2 stack in today and I love that thing! Can you compare the Ga5 to the Blackheart? How do they sound? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Doctor Morbius Posted February 24, 2008 Members Share Posted February 24, 2008 Music123 has a blemished BLONDE Squier Tele Custom II for $195.49. http://www.music123.com/Squier-by-Fender-Tele-Custom-II-Electric-Guitar-with-P-90-Pickups-519584-i1150648.Music123 Use code BLEM10 for an additional 10% off. I accidentally ordered it before I realized it was the blonde version. Just called CS to have the order canceled so it may take a minute to show back in stock. Better yet, call 'em if you want it.

Members the new guy Posted February 24, 2008 Members Share Posted February 24, 2008 Musician's Gear gig bags will be the Stupid Deal on Sunday the 24th. I guess these have replaced the Musician's Friend gig bags. Hopefully they'll go for around $10. They are pretty decent. Much better than the Fender Standard gig bags for sure. Regular price is around $20. I tried to grab a couple of these, but the computer keeps sticking Bass bags in my cart............... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Doctor Morbius Posted February 24, 2008 Members Share Posted February 24, 2008 I tried to grab a couple of these, but the computer keeps sticking Bass bags in my cart...............Sorry about that.

Members maltomario Posted February 25, 2008 Members Share Posted February 25, 2008 Anyone get their GA-5 yet? I ordered one (thursday?) but it has been sitting in their warehouse shipping department since last week even though they tell me "it has shipped". They gave me tracking number and claim UPS just hasn't updated their records. I call BS. I was having second thoughts and wanted to call in and cancel the order. Pure frustration since they basically tell me they can't do anything about the shipment because 'it shipped' even though its still in their facility. It has been sitting on their dock for what, mmmmm. 3 days now? anyway, it was either this amp, a blues jr or a blackheart mini stack. hope I made the right choice.

Don't cancel, mine has finally shipped, should be the same with yours. Actually I am more weary of the condition of the amp at this sale price!

My experience with UPS tracking is that this is pretty common. I ordered a guitar from MF last month and even when the guitar arrived the UPS tracking still said "Billing Info Received".

Dude, NONE of these companies put affiliate links in their own emails. You are replacing them with your own and making a killing on this thread while claiming otherwise. Those are Linkshare affiliate links. Again, NONE of the companies send out affiliate links. The other ones you keep posting are masked CJ.com affiliate links. Again... no company sends these out. If the site if fine with you making money off posts like this, then fine -- but you're being dishonest when you claim they're being mailed to you like this. It's funny how everyone else that gets links from these sites, except for you, links directly to the correct domains.

I don't work for an advertising company if that is what you are suggesting. Some of the specials are "right clicked" and copied from this forum.. or from other threads in this forum and aren't available from the respective websites like Music123 or MF. The only reason why I post in this thread is so that others will post as well. I have saved a bunch of money on deals every month that this has been in existance. TO prove a point..

Those links can easily be verified through any of the companies. CJ & Linkshare links have NEVER been mailed to anyone by those music stores. Or are you just stupid enough to think that out of all the members here, he's the ONLY one to get those links? Every single person but him uses direct links without scamming click money.

Members bugmenot Posted February 26, 2008 Members Share Posted February 26, 2008 And I guess people can also go directly to the websites that are mentioned without having to click on any link. Enough people click and generate enough money to make it worth it. These spammers have abused it so much that some of the Ad-blocker programs now block the cookies from those links. Good for spam, but bad for legit link users that place them on their own personal sites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
