Rondo advertising June new Furrians, and a b-stock lemon burst 3010se, Valkyrie due in December(?), etc

Also stop tail Liquids. Price is now $199. Feels like the Carter years with double digit inflation across the economy except official sources are still pretending it isn't happening.

Looks like a lot of those SX have a June 30 date - that's not bad at all actually. No surprise on the prices though, everything is going to cost more for a while methinks.

The Liquids are back? That was the most GAS-inducing guitar Rondo had for me. There was a time when I desperately wanted to be in the Liquid Owner's Club. I thought those days had passed. Now they're trying to suck me back in!

It’s the blue with the three p90s. That’s the one. That’s always been the one. Swoon!!!

They're listed at Rondo. 3xp90 LPB

Good to see a SX Hawk semi-hollow/thinline Alder coming back for June, and some SX Mahogany Hawk 2xp90, too.
I am waiting for a SX Hawk semi-hollow/thinline Ash to beadvertised, then I'll go for it.

Man, they're getting that Ash Furrian that I said we'd never see again. $230, though... That's kind of a tough pill to swallow, considering they were only $130 about 4 or 5 years ago... That's still a good price, though, considering it's Swamp Ash. You won't get that with a Squier Affinity, and I think a Furrian beats an Affinity even without the Swamp Ash.

I paid $60 for mine & it wasn't even a B-stock!
Kurt was closing them out when the headstock changed (and I still prefer the old one! )

I hated the paddle headstock. I was so glad to see it go. I bought one SX instrument during that time (an Ursa 2 Hum), because I had a vision of something that looked like a Geddy Lee Jazz bass, but with two MM humbuckers, and that bass got me most of the way there. I thought the headstock would grow on me... It didn't. I ended up replacing the stock neck with a '70s Squier VM Jazz Bass neck (I still have the SX neck if anyone is interested. It's a good neck).

I didn't mind the headstock shape they had right before the paddle. I still have no idea why they changed it... It looked good, and it wasn't anything close to a Fender headstock.

I think the current shape is probably my favorite, though.

I dunno what headstock you call this one but it doesn't bother me on a $60 guitar.

I know its not cheap, but it would look great in the optional tweed case, plus you save a little if you buy them together!

That's the headstock that preceded the paddle. That's the one they should have never changed.

Did anybody notice the lone Sawtooth guitar?

A HARM @ $500 + shipping? Pass.

I'd go $500+shipping for a Harm

IF

it were a LEFTY and CSB

Black & righty? I wouldn't spend a penny.

I think it's a realistic price actually. Yes, we'd all love to be paying early 2000's prices but those days are gone. Add on all the supply chain issue and shipping increases on top of the general inflation over 20 years and he could probably sell them at $600 pretty easily.

Where else can you find a good quality, SKorean built semi-hollow with an ebony fretboard for $500? Schecter or other bigger brands who also have guitars built in the same WMI factory would definitely be charging more for the same guitar.

if they bring back the liquid with the jm trem, i don't think i could resist...

If that Harm had soap bar P90's and fret markers I would be placing an order.

No Harm 3/12 - No care.
