Yup, those brands are not cheap. Post the price request at the Musicians Instrument Price List Thread. Keep this thread for stuff below Rm1500.

Juz bought a Laney MXD120 today.. Not sure if this is the amp I really want but since I plan to open up a studio. so I first buy it ..... ehe overall.. I think it is not really as loud as a Marshall MG100 .. Weird
*
How much is the Laney MXD120 ?

Marshall MG100DFX is already Rm1800, so its not considered cheap

the Marshall MG50 DFX can't be compared to the Vox as they are in a different class. the Vox is a modelling amp while the MG50 is a solidstate amp coupled with effects. and from what I heard (no offense to TheWhacker) the MG series are Marshall's worst series, though I personally have tested a MG50 DFX and found it to be just decent though, but honestly speaking there are much better amps for that price.

No offense taken. icon_rolleyes.gif

Well, it depends on what you want your guitar to sound like. If you're the Metallica fan, then the MG50DFX is not the amp for you.

I got the amp for Rm1380 for normal rock, a little bluez and jazz. For me, MG50's gain is enough for me .... i don't quite like very depth, low sounding, heavy mama gains. Coz i'm playing in a church so ... later all the old folks go rclxub.gif. Its clean channel is superb thumbup.gif ... super clear sounding.

To make things simple, the MG50DFX is an all rounder amp if you allow me to say. It can play most themes .... but not like 100% perfect amp for rock, or bluez or jazz.

I think you're better off getting the AD50VT coz its a vintage amp. Its something like the Mg50DFX but cheapaer. I haven't tried AD50VT yet so i can't give you any comment .... but i know its cheaper then the MG50DFX and both amps are quite same.

So start saving then.

You can get a good SX electric guitar around Rm850 or so ... or less.

Be careful about that sale ..... that's kinda "cheap" for a Les Paul Custom IMHO.

Somemore can't see the pictures of the guitar , can't tell if its those made in China clones

thx a lot for the advice..hmm in those places, what is the reasonable price for me to bargain for?

Just ask if the shop can give you a discount, but don't expect them to say "Its 50% off" but expect rather like 5% off (if you're even luckly to get one!)

Shops don't really make that much money from selling music gears. They still make some profit .... well just enough I guess. Any profit they make will be used to bring in other instruments to the shop.

That package is missing something important that links your guitar and your amp to output a sound.

Well the package i mentioned is set up by Bentley themselves.
meaning Bentley set the price and whats included.
*
And they can't throw in a guitar cable for you ?

Even if you're buying Santana's guitar and Eric Clapton's amps, without a cable you're not going to produce any sound.

what's the whole point getting a starter's package without the cable ? Its like buying a brand new car without the car keys itself.

I notice some shops don't get thier stuff from Bentley already. Like Harmony Music for example, the uncle said he'll order directly from Singapore if you want to order a Fender, Zildjian cymbals and the not.

I didn't asked why he's buying directly from Singapore, but yea he;s not getting from Bentley.
