secret word today: 1492

What was the "deal" that I missed for not sailing the ocean blue?

Hi All-

New here but have been lurking a while. There is also an "Oct20%" code at MF this month that applies to Rics. Note its phone orders only...ordered a 360/12 FG. They seemed to have a few in stock.

Sweet deal....

I may have to go for a another.
Thanks!

There is also an "Oct20%" code at MF this month that applies to Rics.

MF tells me that deal is only good for those who have not bought in a while and were sent a "Oct20%" postcard notifying of the sale. "JVL" sale is good for 15% off and includes Rickenbacker.

Sorry! Rookie error I guess...worked for me so I figured I would share. 15%'s not bad either.

Just call back and get another rep and they will sell it for 20% off. The 360/12fg is $300 cheaper than the other colors. I got one a few weeks ago and it was perfect, fresh stock. It's the best buy in the store!

+1 I got a 360/12 FG from MF a few weeks ago also. I called multiple times over the course of a few days. Both Ashley and Zack are good to deal with and quoted low prices. On one of the calls though, I got a rep that quoted a price hundreds of dollars higher than the two folks that I mentioned. It's luck of the draw on who you talk to. If you don't get a good price, hang up and try again 15 minutes later until you finally luck out.

Hope this helps save some $$. Man, I love that 360/12...... it's given me a renewed dedication to practice.
Beautiful guitar and a really nice deal. Thanks MF and especially, RIC for doing such a great job building it.

Guys... *cough*... with 20% off you can currently get a used/very good 2009 4003 FG from MF for a bit less than $1300... since it's used I think it's okay to spread this info.

Too good a deal to pass up, somebody nail it.

[schoolside]

yeah, this 20% sale is for new. They did recently have 20% used and the stuff goes FAST! That bass will be gone in the first 10 minutes.

Hi,

I can't figure this one out...... I called MF today for prices on 360/12 and 360/6. Here's where it gets weird. The 360/12 in FG
is priced $300 cheaper than if you get it in MG, JG, or MB. That's pretty much the same as it's been for a couple of months. I asked about the 360/6 and was told that MG and MB were one price, the JG was cheaper, and the FG was priced higher than all of them. The FG 360/6 was priced around the same as the other 3 colors in the 12 string version. The FG 6 string was priced higher than the FG 12 string. Huh?

Spin that lucky pricing wheel, Vanna!!!!!!

I think it has to do with their remaining stock. I think we're seeing the end of the discounted pricing; one of the supervisors told me that their cost had gone up by about $100 on 360's over just a month ago. Jetglo 360's were $1599 so if you can get 15% or 20% off that it's a pretty sweet deal. But I would get it while you can.
