yeah they do..but not all items..usually its us based companies..ibanez's and esp have caps on the sale items..and each store may have different prices for the items..fender mims went down as $350(instore)..

the pattern of good holidays are black friday, labor day, and 4th of july..thats it..the rest are just 5% discounts..

it's still infinitely better compared to what we have here bro.   :lol:

WOAH!

Great deal there!

$500 on any Gibby is really a steal. :)

OT: Do you mind sir if you could share those out here in the Phils? :) Maybe, purchase some of those cheap Gibbys (or any guitars) and sell it here to your fellow friends here in the PI? :) That would be Christmas in anytime of the year for us. :)

sell it there? in manila, there is no way around customs' taxes if you're from luzon(i think)..so even you can get one @ 500 + 100 something for shipping, for sure taxes will add its own cut which su.cks and that could end up close to $849 or more.., unless you can lobby fora customs tax officer lol or you're in cebu..or me create a kerr hole

Oh well. I didn't know that you could cut some costs if you ship it in cebu. Hahaha! Should've done that a long time ago. I'll ask some of my relatives there if they could partake in my 'new venture'. Hahaha! And how I wish my contact there in the states have more knowledge in guitars and how to spot a good deal there. Hahahaha! Thanks for the info sir! :)

claim it as your personal stuff.. :evil: and sell it to us.. :-D

Hahahahaha! This. ;)

from my experience, yah. even if it's a hassle of a process. signing papers and stuff at the reclaiming booth. for smaller stuff i just put it out of the box and problem solved.

Would you say that the build quality of the tribute studios aren't consistent (based from the ones you've tried)?

when you say build you mean neck and body? the neck and body are cnc'd so they are consistent..

i dont think gibson has a CNC for fret slotting and fret pressing..and the thing is its wood it still moves.

i can explain more if you want.. :-)
