Is there a code to lower the prices, they are at least $100 more on the site, compared to the price you listed.

I would say it's great as a first electric, the Wizard III neck is my favorite from an ease of playing standpoint. It's light and the pickups are pretty good for a mid tier guitar.

Paying over $200 for a Gio is just.. Shocking. 10+ years ago those guitars were around the $150 range and you could find them used for cheaper. Seeing them at retail for almost $400 on this site is crazy. The coupon brings them to about what they're worth so is that really a deal? 🤔

they are great esp for a beginner. i had one for a bit until i sold it but it's a no nonsense electric w decent humbuckers and a fixed bridge. great fast neck. easy to play and maintain. holds tune pretty well. IIRC, its an indonesian guitar so QC is YMMV but usually good. alot of the cheap guitars nowadays are worlds better than the cheap guitars of long ago so this should serve your kid fine. that's a great price for new. you can use the saved cash on a setup...again depending on the QC, it might need one.

Rg8 for 270 is great and while the pups are muddy, setting this up in drop a# will be fun.

Just grabbed an Ibanez GSRM20 for $130. Now I just need a good cheap bass amp. I have a decent guitar amp but don't want to damage it

Love my lefty black MiKro bass, and I'm not a beginner. It replaced my stolen Yamaha RBX170 (my first bass). The P neck pickup sounds great but the J pickup is lackluster. I play with a pick over the J pickup, but don't dial it in much. Will probably replace the J pickup eventually.

I'm looking for a decent dreadnought. Any thoughts on Ibanez Artwood Dreadnought Acoustic Electric Guitar. I have a grand concert sized acoustic and kinda want a bigger sound.

Yeah I heard there was a big case if spider-flu that affected the guitar string spinning spiders which henceforth caused a guitar string shortage, driving prices up drastically.

I mean, at least that's the BS I was told while I got punched in the face and the music store employees took everything in my pockets. 😂

Same story different industry.

Bruh. These are the fancy Gios with the Floyd, the quilt top, and the burst.

Basic flat color Gios and Mikros still sell for $200-210, which is in line with inflation on everything else compared to 10+ years ago, and the Mikro bass for $132 is an excellent deal. All the $150 guitars from 2012 are $200+ now.
