bentley's 2-3 months is just their minimum wait time for their next shipment.
wonder why u didnt check other places, cos for sure bentley isnt the only place that stocks ritter.

Hi,

I think i hav mistaken Rhapsody for Chambers.My mistake..SORI notworthy.gif
I did checkout Chambers few days back, but tis guy from Ironwood said he can giv better price.
Around RM400++ cheaper compared 2 Chambers.Might b bcoz they r the dealer for BC Rich.
Never been der,jus call them.So was wondering if Everdying has any story regarding Ironwood lo.. hmm.gif

Cheers...

not only me...but everyone tongue.gif
when ironwood first got the bc rich dealer iirc about 7yrs ago...i was eyeing the acrylic series...they were selling it for close to RM3k.
previously bc rich was doremi...and it was RM1.8k...
funny how price can jump so much within a month or so...

when ask ironwood why...well typical mahogany/bentley sales pitch...cos it was better quality...
better quality my ass...cos theres only 1 model for it.

Wow i'm eyeing the acrylic series too.The Ice warlock.So tempting. drool.gif
Damn,so much price difference between doremi n ironwood ar.
But the price was 4k++ in Chambers few months back when they still hav d stock.
But now no more liao,only the acrylic mocking bird.

As for the quality,agree with u everydying:i doubt the sales person knows any shit bout it.
I only know its more heavier than normal warlock.Should b around 7kg..i'm only guessin
Btw,thanks 4 d info. icon_rolleyes.gif

Cheers..

chambers had it for 4k++? u sure?
maybe the took stock from ironwood tongue.gif

actually the only guitars i go see in chambers are the mini ones.
they have mini sx guitars and bass, mini acoustics.
and they sell fast.

Yup,thats right..4k++..Very sure coz i ask for d price.Interested mah. drool.gif
Ur guess is as good as mine.Definitely from dealers.
Thats'y was shock when enquire pricing from ironwood.Big big difference. shocking.gif
But if Deadeye could get cheaper,definitely buyin from him. notworthy.gif

Mini ones do sell fast mayb coz hard 2 comeby elsewhere.
Mayb cheaper n affordable..Only guessing

Cheers...
