I was at Braamfontein this morning checking out preparations for their upcoming annual sale...starting Saturday 29th, Sunday and Monday. Before I carry on,...

TOMS Braamfontein annual sale!

Doomsower

I was there. Stood in the queue for 2 hours on Sat morning.
Got some strings and cables...
and a sweet Ibanez rg 421. :dance:
Kinda like this:

My first electric guitar.
Playing it through my bass amp for now :?

Chocklit_Thunda

^Nice!

I too went and got some pedals for super cheap and also a Scarlett 2i2 recording interface ..... But I'm not allowed to open that for another 8 days because it's my birthday present from my sister :'(

The sale was better this year but they were missing the boxes with all the bits and bobs like last year..... No slides, string winders, capos, pick holders etc and also I couldn't find the big box of electric guitar strings that I always restock from..... They only had for bass and acoustic...,,

FRIX

I managed to get some Strings, they had some on the counter, but yes the box with the nice strings weren't there this year. The sale wasn't bad, but not great either.

Lethe

Got myself a Electro harmonix Memory Toy and Nano Clone. The memory toy is quite nice. the nano clone not so much...noisy and uninspiring.
Also got myself a Mic Tube Preamp...for R200 ...called alto mictube alpha...haven't tried it yet though.
I also ran into Chocklit_Thunda lol

I was there quickly on Sunday, currently looking for a real budget solid state low wattage practice amp, but sadly didn't see anything much in that area.

On the bright side I got my (superb ? ) Laney IRT 112 cab from Dino last weekend, and got it for a super good price, So actually my sale bargain came a week early ?
