Post Your Memorial Day Hot Deal acquisitions

[mrpackerguy]

None for me.

A Bill Merchant setup on my upright. $108 including tax bought me twice the sound. Pretty good deal, I'd say.

Won a Yamaha Attitude LTD II on ebay. It was a little damaged, so I got it cheap Always wanted to own one. Not a traditional Memorial Day deal, but it was a good deal on the day of

Nothing special, but I figured that I'd try one of the "newish" Classic Vibe 60's in Fiesta Red. So I used two methods for a discount on MusiciansFriend.com.

Linked in through eBates.com for 3% off
HEROES for 10% off

So grabbed one for just over $300 new.

Yup, with a big blemish on the bottom... thanks for not bidding If I ever sell it, I'll look up this thread and let you know. In the meantime, I'm just having a hard time waiting for it to arrive

I also used the Musician's Friend "HEROES" coupon code to pick up a T-Rex The Sweeper Bass Chorus Pedal, an MXR M82 Bass Envelope Filter Pedal... and a Wedgie Rubber Guitar Pick 3.1 mm medium @ $1.49 to bring my total just above $250 and therefore move up from a 5% to 10% discount.

Now I'll be replacing my DigiTech Bass Multi Chorus which I actually think is a great pedal for the price, but I'm typically a 1-setting "Set it and Forget It!" guy when it comes to my effects as opposed to the wide variety of different chorus variations from the DigiTech. I've also needed a nice Envelope Filter for my pealdboard but wanted one a bit nicer than the DigiTech Bass Synth Wah or Ibanez SB-7 but quite frankly don't have the money for a boutique pedal like the Chunk Systems Agent 00Funk & Octavius Squeezer pedals which I had the same issue as the Chorus - much rather have 1 or 2 great sounds compared to the multitude of functions I'd never use on the BSW. The Bryan Beller & Uriah Duffy samples of the M82 displayed a fantastic "bubbly, wet" tone that's what I personally look for in a Filter.

All-in-all a good day. Replaced the pedals I wanted to "upgrade" (and will sell them off to help fund these purchases) and for now I've got my pedalboard outfitted with everything that I can see myself using not only on a somewhat generic gig, but also something more esoteric and unusual.
