Members Cobalt Blue Posted March 7, 2012 Members Share Posted March 7, 2012 I can not speak for the cab, but the head is awesome for the money! Kustom is one of those brands that is never excluded in the coupon deals - so when the stacking was prime I was able to get two heads for a stereo rig. You can not go wrong for $105 w/ cab. This is one deal I'm very sorry to have missed. The Kustom Contender is my all-time favorite small amp, and I have been considering this Kustom head/cab configuration for a very long time. 105.00 shipped is, to me, the deal of the year. Congratulations to those who were able to take advantage of the deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I've managed to resist that particular deal, but here's one that's giving me trouble:GONE. Hope somebody here got in on it!ESP XJ-6I (MIJ trans-blue Jaguar-like bolt-on) for $677 shipped w/$30 off code from hellomusic.comhttp://www.hellomusic.com/ec/DealMain.aspx?did=13648Not a lot of info about this guitar on the web, at least from quick checks, but an offset MIJ ESP w/Duncan miniHBs at $677 sounds damned sweet to me.Description says rosewood fretboard, photo shows maple.Going fast. I'd leap at it except that I've already go a really similar guitar that I love and couldn't part with. Still...Jump on it folks, and save me from myself!

Woah, it was trans blue with maple; now it's trans red with rosewood! ESP's site doesn't show them as a recent model - the only info I can find on them is that they were apparently made in the early 2000s, and some guy's been trying to sell a few NOS models on eBay for $1200-1400 for some time. I wonder if it's not him blowing out his stock through HM? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if it's not him blowing out his stock through HM? Probably it is Studio Gears, affiliated with AudioMidi. I bought the gold top version on BF from them for the same price as the HM deal. If you buy one, it fits in the Gator case made for a Jag. Very nice offset axe for the dough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members deanmass Posted March 7, 2012 Members Share Posted March 7, 2012 AH! I was not actually ripping on them...I have had a few problems with them...I was more joking...they have so much cool stuff for sale it is hard to NOT buy. They are always nice when I contact them. The only thing I cancelled was an Epiphone I ordered that was supposed to have shipped, then was 'lost' for 2 weeks. I actually bought one of the Akai Wind Controller yesterday. At $200 less than average retail, it's no lose for me. I have wanted to try one, and this one has the built in synth, MIDI out AND audio out. In other news, while not musical, I found this chair today at Staples. While a chair might seem like a silly thing, this one has FLIP UP ARMS. For folks who are at computers with their guitars, a flip up arm is a cool thing and I have not seen one this cheap, ever. $99 and they were $79 last Sunday. I was betting a bunch of you play at your PC or record sitting in a something with arms, which can be a PITA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never bought anything from them, but been registered for a while HM changes the link to the "secret store" on their FB page. Here's the current one, if you have $3,000 to spend.

The ESP XJ-6 was manufactured in ESP Japan's custom shop. ESP Japan only distributed these XJ-6 in the Japanese market for a limited time and have been out of production since 2003. ESP USA has brought these guitars overseas to their North Hollywood facility either for marketing research or for shows, and these guitars have been long forgotten in their stock until now. ESP Japan has agreed to allow these particular XJ-6's to be sold in the US market for the first (and probably last!) time and are extremely rare to find; these could possibly be the last remaining unplayed mint-condition XJ-6's left in the world. These guitars were sold in Japan at 196,000 Yen in 2003 (about 2352USD), here is your chance to own one at about half of that cost. Order yours today before it is sold out! If you're looking for your next electric guitar or you're a collector, consider the XJ-6 to be a serious contender for your affection.

Members brandass Posted March 7, 2012 Members Share Posted March 7, 2012 OMG. Just ordered the purple ESP. Looks like the last of them, too. I am so weak. My plan is to pretend that somebody stole my credit card but accidentally shipped the guitar to my address, otherwise I'm looking at instant castration by butcher's knife compliments of my ever-suffering wife. What have I done? Instant buyer's remorse. But it's got to be a killer axe, and I have big, messy sweet spots for purple, offsets, and miniHBs (and P90s, if it comes to that), so I'll probably be swept off of my feet by it, so I'd better start putting together a bullet-proof story. If it all goes south I suppose I can re-sell at cost ($735, due to ~$60 in tax - that nearly stopped me...), or close to it. Anyway, for those on the fence, seems worth refreshing the hellomusic.com homepage throughout the day, maybe another version of this guitar on the way?

Members Skiddlydiddly Posted March 8, 2012 Members Share Posted March 8, 2012 LOL. I'm damned lucky they only ship to the US. I got to the checkout page and was already preparing my defense for when my wife sees the credit card bill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ultrastick Posted March 8, 2012 Members Share Posted March 8, 2012 Remember guys, these are not only guitars, they are WORKS OF ART! We are art collectors!

Members brandass Posted March 8, 2012 Members Share Posted March 8, 2012 Just canceled my order for a trans-purple ESP XJ-6I, if you're interested in that guitar keep your eyes on hellomusic.com, could pop up there soon.Incidentally, my wife was totally cool with it - she's a champ! - and I'm certain that it's a totally kick-ass axe. But realistically, I shouldn't be sinking that kind of money into another "work of stringed art" (very nice!) at this juncture. Both of our jobs are a little touch-and-go right now, and if one disappears... So it hurt to make the call, but it had to be done.Hopefully somebody else here will land it if/when it pops up again.
