The Deal: Here’s one of the great deals Musicians Friend is offering during their Labor Day Holiday Clearance Sale.

They have knocked an extra $50 off the regular sale price of the Epiphone Limited Edition G-400 Electric Guitar with EMG Pickups. This guitar has the look and feel of an original ‘62 SG, but with its array of EMG pickups it delivers thoroughly modern tones. Fitted to the solid mahogany body is an EMG 81 pickup at the bridge and an EMG 85 at the neck, the exact array used by rockers like Zakk Wylde.

MSRP: $999.99
Regular Price: $599.99
Current Price: $549.99
Savings: $450.00(45%)

I was pretty shocked earlier today when I saw the headline on Harmony Central that 60,000 Orange Amplifiers had been stolen from Orange headquarters in Borehamwood, England.

After reading the article, I realized that thieves did not make off with 60,000 amps (which would have been quite a feat!), but rather 141 Orange Tiny Terror combo amps worth £62,000. These amps were part of the first shipment of the new amp into the UK.

According to the press release, the amps were “stolen from a temperature controlled, sealed forty foot container. The robbers couldn’t break the locks so they attempted to use an acetylene welder and then angle grinders to cut through the quarter inch locking steel plates.”

Of course, the authorities and Orange are trying to find more information about this crime. Orange Amplifiers are putting up a reward of 5000 (not sure if it’s dollars or pounds) for information that will lead to a successful conviction and recovery of these amplifiers. If you have any information please contact the local Police force on 0845-3300222, quoting Crime Number J1/08/3588. The company has the serial numbers of all the products stolen which is available on it’s website.

The Deal: If you’re a bass-playing Beatles fan, there’s no doubt you’ve always dreamed about adding a Höfner “Beatles Bass” to your arsenal. Unfortunately, you’ll have to shell out about 2 grand for the real-deal Hofner bass guitar. For most players this is not a fiscally responsible decision, considering the low percentage of tunes you’d actually use it on.

I’ve found a low-cost alternative that may satisfy your urge until you hit the lottery. Right now at Musicians Friend you can get a Rogue VB100 Series II Hofner-Style Violin Bass Guitar for only $199. Also, for a limited time, Musicians Friend will throw in a gig bag for this bass guitar for free

MSRP: $399.99
Current Price: $199.99 plus free gig bag
Savings: $200.00(50%)
