Because all the baked maple boards are all shipped out. They have their rosewood back. I just had to hear the extreme tonal difference for myself.


Ok. I am lying. Impulse buy.tongue.gif

You should've impulsively bought an Akai pedal, too, apparently biggrin.gif

They deal through a handful of small shops in the USA but keep a low profile. There are also some European dealers selling Biyang on American eBay. I once asked on another forum if Biyang had a NYC dealer and their online rep gave me some really nasty reply about how Biyang will never have a dealer in NYC. There

Ditto! I'm not a shredder or anything but I've played a few Godins and they're great guitars. Now this would be a deal worth a call to MF for the 150% price match!

I also hate this place. Does it really save any of us money? Or does it, in the end, make all of us poorer?

Surely you could have cited some legitimate flaw or expectation not met and asked for a prepaid shipping label? idn_smilie.gif

I could have, but that would have been dishonest. As much as I would have loved to stick it to them (they are a competitor of mine), I'd rather do it the ethical way. That is making them honor their price match and sell me a guitar at cost with a free gift cardthumb.gif

Funny though, be4 pulling the trigger I looked at some YT vids and searched for other reviews. I found this review at Music Radar.com And although the review was largely positive (except for maybe the original MAP), they started with this amusing preface:


MXR ZW90 Wylde Phase

Don't tell him we said this, but Zakk Wylde is a signature gear slut. We've had the Les Pauls, the Marshalls, the strings, the pug-ugly coffin axe, the wah, the chorus and the overdrive.


Just when you were half-expecting the Remington ZW1000 beard trimmer, the big man drops his spin on the MXR Phase 90. Maybe we'll give him a blank cheque and see if he signs that
