That's why i didn't expect to get it! I've put the money down for a bass a few times now and got the rejection email a few hours later so i thought nothing of it this time. I go the confirmation email ten minutes later.

Well I've got an early Xmas present now!

Gutted I missed the 6 string again!
They Always seem to turn up on days I'm too busy to check!

It was gone stupendously quick.

Given the price of dekos, wouldn't it be possible to buy two four strings, saw the wings off one side, and stick them together to make an 8 string?

Just put a 75 through checkout 2 minutes ago. Fingers crossed. Still waiting for a 50's P and a Shorty P to turn up again...

every 10 mins from 7:40 this morning I've been checking the site, until I got caught up messing around with Sonic Pi.

I wanted one of those bowl back acoustics too!!

The factory workers are distracted by their reflection in the shiny black finish, and make more deko-creating mistakes with the black ones. Probably.

And the cheaper Les Paul... hedging my bets. Probably prefer it since it doesn't have a bound neck and is a little less bling.

Bad luck both...Keep trying. My last success went up on Friday night and stayed there most of the weekend, it must have been a quiet period. I succumbed on saturday morning. Look out for weekend postings.

Just a quick update. The Strat arrived this morning - I can't find anything wrong with it. Electrics all work, as does the truss rod. Cosmetically it seems fine.
I'm quite impressed it arrived within 3 days of ordering too!

I wonder do Thomann automatically classify returned B-Stocks as Dekos? e.g - It's been returned twice..probably something wrong with it but not worth spending the time to find out so just sell it for a fraction of the regular price. That doesn't explain the occasional price variation though.
