Ibanez issues....

Hi,I cant seem to find a decent agent in the vaal triangle who sells Ibanez guitars.Any help please as i'm looking to buy one middle feb.

Yeah, that is a problem when one lives in the Vaal. Best bet is to go up to Joburg, a number of good shops there. Oh welcome to the forum ?

Welcome to the forum.

If you know which Ibanez you want you can try a online shop like Musicmadness.

Howzit and welcome to the forum.

The best for Ibanez is TOMs.

Looks like you will have to come to Jozi and visit the new TOM's store in Sandton.

Where is that btw?

TomCat

At the top of Katherine Street just before the bend to Sandton Drive.

It's below the Protea Hotel on the left hand side before the bend to the right (Opposite the back end of Alexander Forbes).

You should try the shop in Meyerton. Oom Charl sells mostly Ibanez guitars. Although the shop is small they do have a variety and can get you anything you ant. Their prices are also normally competitive.
Where in the Vaal do you stay?

just don't only visit one store in jhb . there are many that stock ibanez and most can get you anything you want .... and negotiate cos if you buying new and cash or credit card . the discounts i'm seeing these days is huge almost 30 -40 % cheaper than list prices....and if they not offering that try a few other stores...........

jhb has TOMS /Marshall Music/Music connection/ andy mcgibbons guitar world/ and there are some branch's of Bothners here too...ones in centurion ... /music mate too .......

so maybe take a day off and visit the whole list .... looking for what you want... but also just checking out what else many of the stores stock like at marshall i seen some cool ESP electrics....... for same prices as ibanez... and yeah many stores carry guitars one should compare and try before parting with your well earned cash ...........

Before you actually buy froj a store, see what you can get it for at Musicmadness. I bought an 2 Ibani (plural for Ibanez ne) and got for quite a bit less from them. This after I scouted around.

I agree. As luck would have it, after buying at one store, you will notice something better/cheaper at a some other store. And that sucks!

LOL........hell Ray, you are so funny, such wasted talent, I would be a full-time comedian if I were you.........easier money than being a muso!!! ? ?

BTW. I agree, MusicMadnes, right here on this forum, is a brilliant shop to deal with.......and you can collect your guitar right here in JHB, or get sent to you!!

Thanks for the welcome and i'll check out some of the stores in jozi.

if you're in the big city. I recommend TOMS.
They're the official Ibanez Agents for SA.
As for the Vaal Triangle. Think the shops name is Music World or something in Vanderbijlpark.
The band Wake to Wonder is sponsered by them should help with the search. Paul got his hands on a Limited Edition RG20061. Not a pazzle version though. (I'm still dying to get a Pazzle Ibanez)
