You never miss a trick, do you!
12 months no interest means on the 13 month if you still owe any, they charge you all 13 months worth of interest.

I have a Musician's Friend card and bought both a 650 Dakota and a Jetglo 330 from them, among many other things. Everything I have ordered from them arrived in a timely manner and it was packaged well. If you're on the fence about ordering from them, I say go for it. I have had nothing but good experiences in dealing with them.

If you order from American Musical Supply,(AMS)they will let you pay three to five payments at the beginning of each month with no card or interest. I purchased a electronic drum set and lights for my band and never pay a single penny of interest. All my payments were taken out of my checking account and everything was paid for in three months. To me this is the way to go.

So, do you have 12 months from the time the order was placed to pay, or 12 months from the delivery date to pay?
I wish I had ordered my DCM 4003 from MF instead of my local Rick Dealer, the CME. If I had, I'd have a bass.
Down with the CME!! Don't give a dime to those thieves.

As I have stated (many times) I have had perfect experiences with all dealers except one (Z).
And I have pointed out (IMHO) the irony that M123 was the target of so much bashing and now it is MFriend, especially on the FDP Fender site (of which MF is a sponsor).
I have found, by the way, that AMS usually has the lowest shipping prices and the lowest purchase amount eligible for free shipping.

I have used M.F. and AMS in the past. AMS always treats me better. I have no problem with MF, I like AMS better since I do not use credit cards. I dont believe in paying extra fees when I do not have too.

But AMS doesn't carry a long range of models. They sell what they get. You can't order other colors of guitars than what they stock. Other than that I like them. The other thing I like about AMS is their deferred payment plans. You order the guitar, they ship it to you, then charge your card in wither 3 or 5 monthly payments.

Well, congratulations. Get ready for an interest of about 23%!!! No thanks.

You only have to worry about the interest if you don't pay off the amount within the promotional period. At MF, anything over $500 is one year intrest-free, so if you pay off the amount in question within a year, you pay no interest. Works for me
