RE: Electric guitars from £25 + delivery

Quote:
It`s flagged on Hotukdeals with quite a few comments worth reading.


Read the comments here by all means - but take some of them with a pinch of salt. There`s plenty of opinions from people who haven`t played these guitars (or as far as I can tell similar budget guitars) , on the other hand there`s a fair few positive comments from people who have actually played these guitars

Squier-By-Fender Guitar

Squier-By-Fender Electric Guitar With Amp Set
Catalogue number: 200-3871
Was £179.97 - Now £89.98


Squier-by-fender Electric Guitar With Amp Set. For the budding pop star this electric guitar and 10w amp is just like the equipment the professionals use. For that next hot gig they will also need a gig bag, plectrum, tuner, cable and strap - all included. Oh, and just in case they need to polish up their performance, some tuition material is included as well. Age group 8yrs+

Squier-By-Fender Acoustic Guitar
Catalogue number: 200-2283
£39.96




The Squier-by-fender Acoustic Guitar is a dreadnought styled acoustic guitar with a natural finish. Accessories with this musical instrument include gig bag, strap, pitch pipe tuner, plectrum and tuition material. The Squier by Fender is suitable from age 8yrs+.
If you don`t know Squiers are guitars made for Fender but not actually Fender guitars. Got a bit of a bad rep in the 90s for using poor materials and substandard manufacturing. I believe more recent guitars are much improved.

RE: 160GB PVR - Digital Freeview Receiver With Twin Tuner £51 + delivery

Quote:
sounds like it`s not quite so "brand new" and in fact are bid-up tv`s rejects!


I don`t see anything on that tread to suggest these aren`t new; more worryingly several people have had problems + it`s while it`s a twin tuner it`s only a single channel recorder

RE: Olivetti all in one printers £19.99 or wireless £49.99

thread about the Olivetti here

"Cartridges £23 each.

High price although worth noting that the balck one comes with 20ml of ink (my HP one comes with 5ml for approx £13!!). If these do indeed come with full carts, way cheaper to buy a new printer (although terrible for the environment, I suppose). Voted hot."
