Sales? What sales? Most Jan sales are just a big con...at least were guitar equiptment is concerned. So in answer to your question....You'll be lucky!!

I want one to having been pretty impressed hearing one at PMT 2 weeks ago when someone else was trying one out...it caught my ear and is on my to get list.

Bottom line- It takes motor skills and practice to develop fast clean playing but a brain to use it wisely and rock guitarists are still recovering from the 80's.

Sales! Don't get me started.......I too can never find anything I actually want, especially anything to do with guitars, amps, recording gear etc., bicycles (proper racing ones), or stuff for controlling my garden like chainsaws, etc.

I got a Dual last month and paid the usual £139. It's worth it though, as it's absolutely superb.
Let me know if you find one cheaper so I can kill myself.

Yep i'm sure the January sale price for a HT Dual is err...£139. Which is the same price as every other month of the year. Good that intit? What would Jim Royale say? January sales my arse!!

The guy in my local guitar shop told me that the Blackstar pedals are one of the few things people are buying at normal prices and there was no way he was going to include it in his sale because of this.

Shame, but the pedal's worth paying for. It's my current favourite bit of kit anyway
