This is worth it because it's the deluxe plus, but was never worth a 200 plus price tag. A great beginner electric.

Monoprice Cali DLX Plus HSS Electric Guitar w/Gig Bag Sunburst Ash Body 6 String - $74.04

$74

And that's with Humbucker

Heavy; but the thing is it's competitive quality, for the price. Said to be impossible. It wasn't.

"Swamp" sourced Ash would mean a lighter Ash wood, originally.

Good to know, but It just shows that tariffs and inflation is working.

They are, over time. But that has a lot to do with pay raise income vs. present costs. I'd take either pay raise or lower cost. Where we want (both) higher pay and lowest prices; and that's what a dollar can buy today. Same thing as inflation status. But the inflation rate(s) now is not the lasting inflation hike that always happens. Gum used to be a penny, you know. So more raises than inflation is the goal. Now, what causes business to be able to pay more? And for what, like how can we each make a better product or service (often in mass, with BETTER quality) at a lower (effective) cost (per pay rates). Hint: Not Marxism. Uncle Sam is a lying dog. Not your bank account. You don't need any more masters. Are you their, "useful idiot"? No one here, right?

We cannot stop world competition; that's not what tariffs do. They strike trade balances. And much of the imbalance has improved already. Big picture! We must make a better product & price, or fail. And it is YOU the buyer who abides quality, or not. Always send back bad quality or you can never trust online buying. And we do not want more bad quality crap.

With all that said, a products cost could still be MUCH lower than it was, for numerous reasons we do not need to understand every discount perfectly. Just know (relatively) what is a slick deal. A current value for what you get, compared to the time and effort it takes at your job to make it. Do your research first, not just a spec sheet and vote carefully with your dollars.

And BTW materials and food are crazy right now. One thing we know though is change is coming. Just like it is unwise to get "Mr. or Mrs. right NOW"; but only for today, then the secret is... if it's no good in our future then it's not good right now really, no matter the circumstances and appearance. Like "recreational" drugs being "good" in the moment; they are not actually good, ever. The addiction secret. See it for real, and win. Authenticate away from all the tricky pretense.

You gotta know for things this messed up, and to be improved then it may sometimes feel worse; before it gets better. So do not listen to the drug dealing politicians who are tickling your ears. Not to the ones who broke it and actually raise your taxes, making it even worse. Laughing their way to the bank. On your back; but then grave, not so fun. "Rich" is not the problem. Can I dictate how well off you can be? Bad character is the problem. Putting Truth last instead of first; that is the problem. The ones that don't believe there will be no secrets. Soon. Stay out of their boat. Send them packing; before they steal your choice.

Even here with guitar gear, there will be many opportunities. Hunt harder. Timing.

So, if one over simplified and said inflation simply leaves everything costing more(on every product), then you'd miss this should not be that much more here, then. It's more than inflation; meaning not slick. And does not dictate the prices cannot also go down (here), for those many countless reasons.


  1. Ask what is your time investment. And trouble.
  2. Start with getting paid to possess it.
  3. Only then how can you get it free (legally).
  4. Then for pennies on the dollar.
  5. Then significantly for less
  6. Do you really even need it (step 0)

Because real inflation does not mean we have to pay more on every product. Actually everyone paying more makes inflation worse. Many are buying a lot, post COVID, to name one reason. Shop around, please. Wait. Bargains always exist.

Meanwhile: Go get Linuxmint.com for free! Really. Follow the directions. Stop letting others block you. Enjoy Linuxmint (with the Mate user interface!) and keep what you got. The best of both worlds. Use them both for a year, then decide. Only then you'll know.
