Pulled the trigger...11R inbound

[balance]

I've been playing with the idea of an 11R for over a year now. I have the HD500 currently and actually had most of the $ in place for the Axe FX II, but was unsettled on dropping that much coin as I have a new, custom build guitar on order plus the other gear I acquired of late

Anyway, I got a killer deal on a new 11R today between a price match + discount promo, so I made the leap. I plan to upgrade to the EXP as soon as it arrives. Oh, and I plan to keep the HD500 as the controller and any other effects/amp models I can use.

Cool.

Definitely get the ERXP as soon as you can

Looking for 11R - could you expound on the deal you got? Where? Retail?

Guitar Center.com has 15% off on any item over $299 right now, and if you can find a lower retail price at any other online store, they will BEAT that price, plus you will get 15% off that. Thats pretty much how I did it when I bought mine from Music123.com

For instance.

Audiomidi has the 11R for $749, it is $899 at GuitarCenter.com. You would go to the 11R on GC, then go here http://www.guitarcenter.com/Customer...srnt=1&dept=44 and tell them you found a lower price here http://www.audiomidi.com/Eleven-Rack-P14759.aspx

and ask them to give you a quote. They should then respond by adding the Eleven Rack at the reduced price into your Online Cart, so make sure you have a GC account so you can log in and get to it.

You would then proceed to checkout, and apply the 15% off code "ROCKUSA"

Now some times they wont allow you to combine discounts, but I've always been able to.

You should also be able to go into a local GC store and get the same deal.

By my calculations you should be able to get it for under $650 (if they allow both discounts) thats still more than I paid, but I got the hook up at Music123.com <$650 is a great price, you should jump on it if they allow it.

Good luck.

Also if you have a BigCrumbs account "click through" their site before you make the purchase and get cash back right into your Paypal account, I could go on and on about ways to get stuff super cheap, but i better stop, cant give away all the secrets.

Get an Eleven Rack. Do it.

This weekend you can do even better. Audiomidi has 10% off everything. So now the price match is for $675 (10% off $749).

So then you can do what Benoni said and try to get 15% off of that, which would be about $573. Sweet!

For price matching purposes, the Audiomidi sale ends Tuesday end of day.

If you want to just order from Audiomidi.com, the promotional code is "remember" (for Memorial Day).

I don't know if you need this to do a price match somewhere else. They just need to know that audiomidi's doing 10% off.

I didn't know if posting prices was cool here, but you guys nailed it out how it worked out. ProAudioStar has them at $699 and MF is running the 15% off orders over $700. I wanted a Lava Retro Coil anyway, which is $65 itself, so that plus the 11R was only $650 shipped.

I got mine for A LOT more than 675$ ... I paid € 770 for mine, which approximates 1100 $ Still worth every cent though You can't put a price on sheer tonal bliss

absolutely worth it.

AC30 is phenomenal. I could play on that amp alone and be happy. The Plexi is so very good as well.

The feel is the most impressive feature so far. It truly feels like an amp. Lots to learn and I've only scratched the surface with the features and ERXP, but so far, so good.

Paid 899.99 Canadian + 15% tax on mine and in no way feel that I am not getting my $ worth. It's the first guitar based amp that I've ever bought and as far as I can tell the only thing for guitar I'll ever need :)
