dont hesitate on either of these, but especially at this price!

2 day shipping with shoprunner (look up how to get it for free via PayPal or your credit card)... these sound, feel and play spectacular.

I've been watching these probably for two years now(maybe more?), and this seems to be the lowest price from any store. Once again, the coupon on works on the champagne (color) like in past sales. While it's all about the music, the color champagne isn't as inspiring as the drink itself(to me). The price hasn't budged on the other colors, which I like much, much more. Still going to hold out.

Picked up the 4 string P last time. Gorgeous instrument, with excellent playability and sound. I love the color!

I feel you man, everybody's got their color tastes... that Champagne is actually also Fender's classic Shoreline Gold color (offered on many more instruments), and it does photograph differently in different light. I was on the fence before nabbing it too... but the tone and build as well as throwing on a WDMusic 3 ply Black-White-Black pickguard on it made the color pop (vs the pearl/white) and really made the deal a slam dunk.

Same here. Come on, Olympic White!
Well, I want an ebony fretboard, so it's better that I wait for them to use up all the restricted rosewood.

Thanks for posting this deal. I've been waiting for months and really wanted the ash body bass (nicer colour, sound? and looks).

I couldn't use the coupon on the ash elite V, and I wonder if Adorama would let me use it if I call?

I have a MM V7 5 string ash natural colour that I got for about $500 back in the day, and I wonder if this is definitely worth the extra $900. I hope it will be. Any opinions?

Are you sure you put the code in the right spot?

There are two spots under payment, the first is gift card code, then the second is a spot for the promo code. I just tried it and it worked for me.

I have a Lakland 55-02 and a 55-60 and just sold my 4-string Fender American Deluxe Jazz (the predecessor to the Elite). The neck on the AmDlx Jazz is phenomenal! I imagine the Elite line is just as nice if not nicer. Is it worth $900 more than your MM, it depends on your mindset.

I'd love to have an Elite V but I really don't care for the Champagne/Shoreline Gold color. Damn that price is killer for an Elite.

Yeah, the champagne doesn't look great. That's why I wanted the natural colour, but for $1350, this is unbeatable

Yes indeed, I used the code on the champagne, but it didn't work on the natural colour 5 string elite. Can you please elaborate on the mindset aspect you mentioned? I'm all about quality sound, but at a reasonable price as I'm not a professional musician, just amateur.

Hey all don't forget to use the cash back add on on your browser and at least some sort of cash back CC with extended warranty.

I wanted to use my discover and pay through PayPal but they discontinued their extended warranty programme.
