Yah, we got fair warning. Yah, I did spend what seemed like half the day checking the Amazon site and seeing the unbelievable prices. Yah, I watched my first choice Albert Lee HH hardtail drop in stock till it was gone. Yah, I watched my 2nd choice disappear too. I even watched as a color I didn't like, but had the most unbelievablest (I made up the word) price dwindle and eventually the offer time expire. I'll use the excuse that I've been out on disability with a back injury and my pay is cut dramatically......but now I'm looking a going back to work Monday and......well......I really should have bought one and maybe put one of my other guitars up for sale later.

Yes, I snoozed. I've lost. Who else?

Oh.....just to make me feel better (or maybe worse).....you guys who picked up a bargain....please post a picture here.

Well I was one of the lucky ones! Thanks to Erin for the heads-up! Got my Hardtail AL HH on thursday, took it straight to a gig, it's fantastic!! Played all of my shows on thursday and friday with it, and tonight will be the same... I'll be at the Whiskey Republic in Providence, RI if anybody wants to come check it out.

The guitar is super lightweight, the setup was dead on right out of the box, went literally from the ups truck to the stage. Loving it!

Had mine shipped to my sister in NH, to avoid the sales tax. Will have it in a couple weeks!

Kicking myself for only buying one....:D

When you get sick of that one and want a perfect natty Axis with coil splitting, I'll trade. That one was my first choice. (the black on black hardtail being my 2nd choice). I'm driving distance :D

Hmmm... Sounds tempting... I'll think about it. Either way, send me a pm if you want to come over and check it out. It's schweeeeet!!

So you guys feel comfortable ordering a guitar through Amazon?

Hey John,

Amazon was great. I was a little weary at first, but the guitar arrived factory sealed, in tip top shape. Actually, I had a minor issue, called Amazon customer service, and they made it right - and then some. I definitely recommend them.

Damn Jack it looks like the joke was on us, you for snoozing and thinking it was a prank and me for not knowing. Mint Green for $1,050, I am glad I did not know in a way as I would have to put on a kick me shirt as that is the one I want bad and that price could not be beat with a bat. Congrats to everyone who scored!
