The Best Deal

Since i came back , everybody have been asking me this 2 questions ..

1.Bro , are you okay ? you sick ? got H1N1 ah ?

2.Bro , How’s US ? What’s the best deal you saw in U.S ?

i think the first question more lah  ..haha , donno why so super hype ? You know , when H1N1 made it to the headlines on saturday …mcb

1.My relatives called me

2.My Church friends called me

3.Unknown sms msg me

4.The best one was …

“Bro , aku nak jamming hari ni , pukul 7pm-8pm”

me ” ok ”

“oh , kau sakit tak ? ada H1N1 tak ? ”

WAH . Book Jamming studio also can ask me ..

Anyway , let us move on to the second question lah . What was my best deal in U.S ? Eh , Sensitive you know . Asking a wannabe-businessman this kinda question ..

….but i will tell you :) only in my blog :p i found my best deal here , Guitar Center at San Bernardino

and for those of you who have no idea where’s that ..its at California (Not anywhere in New York)

This place is full with latinos , so you can imagine lah . how badass the “neighborhood” looks like

well ..this guitar center is probably the smallest one that i entered ..but it wasn’t too bad..

the VIP room . quite small lah ..a couple of Gibsons , Fenders and an Ibanez JEM

i managed to test a “Krank” amp , for the first time in my life ..

well , compared with other “tube” amps that i had played . i think this amp not very cut-through lor ..

i mean .. yeah i know ..the gain sounds brutal and all lah..

but its not my thing , i am more towards a type of amp that has an awesome clean and overdrive sound . I do not need super crazy distortions lah

i do not mind getting one because the amp is quite cheap compared with other qiants ..but if i get it , it will be for collection purpose only . i will not use it at a live show .

ok , let’s get down to BUSINESS ..i will be honest ..the best deal was ..

this…and HOLY SHIT !!! 699 USD ?!!!!??!?!? isn’t it cheap enough ?

…no ..it wasn’t 699USD .

I had a further 20% off …so imagine how much i could got it for..at that price , i will CONFIRMMMMMMMMMMM BUY WEI

i kept blaming myself  “why the hell did i FLY ? Next time , i will DRIVE TO AMERICA “

and a good deal just slipped away ..

!&@^!*&#^*$&^*&^

  2. Haha u should have said to the fella,
    “tak sakitlah, hanya batuk-batuk sedikit…”

  3. Man u’ve missed such a wonderful offer. What I would do to get my hands on that 5150.

  4. should have send that amp back by airmail. the 20% discount can offset the shipping cost a bit..,rite? Why never go to Norman’s Rare Guitar while your are in California? There got a lot vintage inventories.

  5. erm, y cant u buy it and send back by ship?

  6. everyone concern mouu

  7. ampz37 : don’t think so mate ..the shipping will cost roughly 230 USD , without tax

    enter : to send by ship , you need to buy by container …1 whole container for just an amp ? maybe there are small companies who buys container and rent the space out , but not easy to find lah …i am just a tourist there..

    deadeye : haram ..haha..
