I stumbled across this today. Currently, Musician’s Friend is having a $20 rebate on the DigiTech Whammy Pedal. The DigiTech Whammy Pedal is available at $179.95 (rebate already calculated). Normally, this pedal is available for $199.95.

If you purchase this pedal between May 1 and May 31, 2011 you will save $20 instantly!

Here is the official details on the DigiTech Whammy Pedal:

The performance and sound of the new DigiTech Whammy Pedal with MIDI Control are reminiscent of the original red WH-1 Whammy. All the favorite whammy settings that guitar players covet are available again at the touch of a knob. Added is a new Dive Bomb effect, similar to that of a Floyd Rose whammy bar pushed all the way to the body of the guitar. Another new addition is a MIDI-in jack, allowing remote control of effects via MIDI devices. Both type and control are accomplished via MIDI program changes and CC messages respectively. Wet/Dry outputs are provided.

Here is a good deal at Musician’s Friend. This deal is on the Vox Joe Satriani Time Machine delay.  The delay lists at $270, and is available for $199.99, but comes with a $30 cash back via mail in rebate. This offer will expire on 4/30/2011. The rebate can also be applied to the Satchurator and Big Bad Dual Wah as well.

Here is a partial description on the Joe Satriani Time Machine:

The Vox Time Machine dual-mode delay pedal was created in a collaboration between world-renowned guitarist Joe Satriani and VOX. With two delay modes and a Hi-Fi/Lo-Fi switch, it delivers a wide range of delay sounds and yet remains remarkably easy to use.

Two delay modes to handle any situation
The Time Machine has both Modern and Vintage delay modes. The Modern mode mirrors your original sound with full clarity and fidelity, and will fit any style of music. As its name suggests, the Vintage mode delivers the sound of a classic tape delay pedal. A proprietary saturation circuit creates a warm, analog sound with a nice sense of distortion. Gentle modulation is also applied in the vintage mode, reproducing the slight warbling produced by a tape-based delay. The amazing effectiveness is the result of an uncompromising process of testing and refining carried out by Joe and VOX.

For those of you not familiar with this delay, I found this video by gadottiguitars:

Update… since writing this post, they raised the price to $69.99. That’s still a good deal with the rebate.

So I found a crazy deal on the Vox V845 Classic Wah at Musician’s Friend. Right now they’re on sale for only $49.99. That alone is a good deal (that’s 67% off of MSRP), but they’re also including a Mail-In rebate of $20. According to my math that puts the cost of the V845 at $29.99. Plus, this Vox Wah is coming with a free gift… Danelectro DA-1 Power Supply ($9.95 MSRP).

The rebate expires on 12/31/10 (view rebate form). I might end up buying this.. just for a nice wah chassis to work on mods, etc?? Who knows, but this price it’s worth picking up for sure! Check it out here.

Here is the official description of the Vox V845 Classic Wah:

The Vox V845 Classic Wah Wah Guitar Effects Pedal is based on the specifications of the original pedal developed by VOX in the ’60s. The V845 Wah-Wah offers guitarists the same legendary Wah-Wah tone in a new sturdy but very affordable design. The fitted AC power connector saves on batteries and the outer case is coated with tough all-black finish making the VOX Classic Wah-Wah a perfect choice for your pedal board.

VOX developed the world’s first Wah Wah effect during the ’60s to give guitarists the ability to sound like a trumpet being muted—an important musical ingredient of the day. VOX’s original Wah Wah pedal quickly gained widespread popularity and its unique sonic characteristics have encouraged further experimentation by guitarists ever since.

I found this video by MusikSchmidt (it’s in German):

So let’s summarize…. Vox V845 Classic Wah – Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP)  is $155.00, it’s on sale for $49.99 (save 67%) AND you get a $20 mail-in rebate, so you can get this bad boy for $29.99. Oh and it comes with a power supply. You can pick this up at Musician’s Friend

Good Deal Alert!

This morning, I received an email from EffectsBay friend Jason, letting me know that his wife (who is into coupons) came across a site that mentioned a pretty sweet rebate deal at Music123.

So here’s the deal.. right now Music123 has a sale on Musician’s Gear Double Guitar Stand for $14.99 (70% off MSRP) with FREE shipping. That’s a decent deal in itself, but if you download their current rebate sheet (download here), you can receive $14.99 with proof of purchase (purchase needs to be made betweekn 7/16 and 7/31). So you pay $14.99… and your get $14.99 back.. so FREE!

Thanks Jason for bringing this to my attention. I might have to pick up a couple of these.
