MF: Great Deals Anytime for TB'ers

Sign in to disble this ad
Just deal directly with Skaught Parry at forums@musiciansfriend.com via email. Tell him you're a TB'er. Can't mention exactly what he did for me BUT it was good enough that I'm a VERY happy camper. I'm writing this to let all you know to give it a try. He'll be my first stop when I'm in a "Buy Mode" from now on.

THE PRIME DIRECTIVE: Please DO NOT list or mention the specific price for the deal you got. That is private between you and Skaught. I DO NOT WANT TO KILL THE GOLDEN GOOSE HERE FOR US!!!!!!! NO EXCEPTIONS! Thanks for your understanding.

There are a few peeps out there in the online stores that are quite friendly with prices. Pretty sure it's cuz they work on comission. And probably cuz they wanna help people out somewhat also. Win/win.

I can verify that forums@musicansfriend is the way to go. I just used it for 2 great deals. Skaut helped me out with one of them.

Just email him. I came really close to buying a Taylor Acoustic guitar from him a month ago per the original post. His price was very good. Ended up finding a used larrivee that fit the deal better, but I would've had no complaints getting the instrument at the price he was quoting me.

I had to go through a couple of people before I got to him. I think part of the problem might have been that I didn't put "Talkbass" in the subject line and he was off one day. I'd put Talkbass and Skaught in the subject line.

I actually got a really nice deal also. The items I ordered are on back order, so I guess since I'm a skeptical person I'll completely believe it when they are in my hands. But, assuming they follow through, I got a very good deal.

What kind of stuff are you guys getting deals on? Not asking for specifics, just curious as to if its basses, amps, accessories, or what.
