Really? It works great on all my instruments.

Helpful tip: be sure the Snark doesn't touch the tuning machine, or any part thereof. This will throw off all the tuning, and make it tough to get a reading in the first place. I had the same trouble as you, and when I brought it back to Elderly, they explained the issue. I haven't had a problem since. Very quick tuning, and accurate.

Other Hot deal threads may lend themselves to discussion more but this is a thread for people to sub & get instant deals before they sell out so don't litter the inboxes with gear chatter. PM each other?
Felt this needed to be reiterated.

I actually gave the Dean Spire (Black) a try. Its not a bad bass. It a neck diver, but sound wise it pretty aggressive. Reminds me alot of the Ibanez SR800 series. I added some weights to the pot compartment. My strap helps alot too. If you like that aggressive tone.... its definitely worth $375.00.

SILENCE MINONS!!!

Please only post deals that are freaking awesome compared to other stores. Cut down on chatter if you can, we get deals, we post deals, we talk gear elsewhere eh?

Figured I'd post a few deals

Big Al 5 string SSS $1250 vs $1800 anywhere else. Less than used
Dean Edge 6 string bass $305
Eden WTX264 mini amp $264

Other than that its been REALLY quiet on Amazon

Now down to $394.51.
I scored a nice deal on a Schecter Model T last year. I kept waiting and waiting until the price got down around $340 and then I pulled the trigger. Problem is, they only seem to let one go at the low price and then it bounces back up.

just ordered the eden head. I have been playing some smaller venues lately and been thinking about some micros but very few are what I would call warm.. but eden is known for its warmth so we shall see....everyone else wants 449 for the head. at 264 it is worth a look.

I went to sleep last night with this in my cart figuring the 2 they had would be gone this morning and I wouldn't spend money I don't have. Was still available this morning and took it as a sign and snatched it up. Right after that the 1 remaining went back up to $699. Now I just have to sneak it past the wife
