G&L JB-2 Swamp Ash Sunburst on Hello Music.
 
is it me or that is too good to be true?
http://www.hellomusic.com/items/jb-2-swamp-ash-sunburst

If I needed one, I'd be all over this but it gets me wondering if I should pull the trigger anyways!

Just checked it out. Its a tribute, price is meh

burns_t 12-10-2012 11:33 AM

Even for a tribute that's a great deal and if you combine it with their first time buyer coupon of $25 off (HM2515OFF) you can pick one up for $304 plus shipping!

Morning Beer 12-10-2012 11:42 AM

I screwed up for some reason I thought is was 629. That is a good deal

Reaper Man 12-10-2012 12:14 PM

yea, pretty good deal. May end up jumping on this one...

Marko5657 12-10-2012 02:57 PM

Yeah, they seem to be $425/450 elsewhere.

bumperbass 12-10-2012 03:20 PM

Had to email G&L about the weight. I was gawking at this one, too.
Anybody know what these weigh?

Use coupon code "xmas50" for $50 off, bringing it to $279 (+$18 shipping for me). I don't need this, but it's tough not to pull the trigger.

Differences between the JB2 and JB-2...this is getting confusing!

BadJazz 12-10-2012 06:30 PM

Just bought one. DAMN TALKBASS!

Holy ****, you're right, and shipping is free. $279! Damnit I bought it an hour ago with a different code and paid $305.

BadJazz 12-11-2012 05:11 PM

Sold out...
 
My roommate just bought the last one. $279 with shipping.

:bassist:

Also, big props to Hello Music. I emailed them about the XMAS50 code and Colleen wrote back that they will refund the difference. Great customer service.

Let us know how you like them, all who purchased. I want to know how hard to kick myself, if at all.

BadJazz 12-12-2012 05:01 PM

They have more now. $279 shipped. At least for me. My roommate tried to buy one and they kept adding shipping, so I bought it for him.

rizzo9247 12-12-2012 08:13 PM

Added $46 to ship...no thanks

basementwaste 12-13-2012 12:00 AM

Not sure whats up with them and their random shipping prices. I've seen $46 and $18. But more often $46. Not sure how it decides for who or when to do the free shipping. I haven't seen it yet.

Still an excellent price even with the $46 shipping if you were looking to get that bass in that color with the maple fretboard. But not good enough to jump on it when I don't really need it.

Andy_D 12-13-2012 11:03 PM

They got more in. I bought one for $279, but they added $32 for shipping. Not bad though. I didn't NEED one but I wanted it for sure. It will most likely replace my VM Jazz as my go to jazz bass. I'm a sucker for deals.

dcgoodwin2112 12-17-2012 03:02 PM

Couldn't resist
 
I ordered one a couple days ago. Unfortunately, I wasn't aware of the coupon code at the time, but $347 shipped is still not a bad deal at all.

BadJazz 12-27-2012 06:44 PM

They're here!
 
Took two weeks. I am beyond impressed by this deal.



Mine's on the left, roommate's on the right. This thing absolutely CRUSHES the Affinity J I bought new last year. (Got the whole beginner pack for $140 new.)
