TheGreek Posted January 26, 2020 Posted January 26, 2020 Gear4music advertise loads of damaged items - have a look at the amount of acoustic guitars with damaged headstocks they have for sale. It's only a matter of time before one of the fork truck drivers damages something that you want. 1 Quote
rubis Posted January 26, 2020 Author Posted January 26, 2020 Mmmmmmn, how right you are, I wonder if they will damage to order? 2 Quote
yorks5stringer Posted January 27, 2020 Posted January 27, 2020 What's going on with the headstock, is the photo blurred or has it got wet? Quote

Delberthot Posted January 28, 2020 Posted January 28, 2020 Without getting a closer look at the headstock this part of the description worries me; What exactly do they mean by having the neck angle corrected? a shim, a tweak of the truss rod or something else? This item has had the neck angle corrected but the headstock has sustained damage. There are signs of cosmetic damage to the headstock on the top and front side. Quote
prowla Posted January 30, 2020 Posted January 30, 2020 RRP £615, damaged price £449 - TBH, I'd spend the extra £150! Quote

binky_bass Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 (edited) G4M have upped their prices on their Damaged stock. Used to be much better discounts! Their descriptions of the damages are pretty vague and terrible, usually to lull you into buying it. It's a hard pass on this for me! Also, the 'RRP' price they use is the manufacturers RRP which hardly any shops use, most sell for circa 10% below RRP to be competitive, if not more. So make sure to check the true 'new' price. Don't be fooled! Edited February 3, 2020 by binky_bass 1 Quote
