Wouldn't surprise me if they do within the next few years. I think an electronic one would be quite likely.

Kollias has got endorsements from like 6 different companies. So he can pretty much get whatever kit and equipment he wants. Although I think he's mainly with Pearl for the drums and sabian for the cymbals.

Aldi sells big cans of tuna for 89c whereas the woolies in my area sells the teeny cans for like $1.50. Also aldi has these mad chocolate covered biscuits that are expensive but taste fantastic. The general gist of this post is that I am a fan of aldi and aldi related products.

I picked up two of my guitars from there. The semi-acoustic's action is a bit out, but nothing thats not fixable. The acoustic however, is great. The best quality to price I have ever seen. I use it for the majority of my playing now (I have five guitars) :)
lol

i was actually just at one today and noticed they had classical & semi-acoustic guitars and also half sized violins :S

If your going to get one, go for the acoustic with steel strings. They're the better of the three types they stock.

Aldi sells food and basic household products at cheap prices. I like that. I lived near one for a while and shopped there for convenience more than anything. I prefer the quality of food, products and the service at Woolworths to Aldi.

Service will always be better at Woolworths and Coles than Aldi. It's one of the ways they cut costs.

medion branded electronics from aldi are usually really good value + quality, most of the time it's rebranded generic shit from china you can get off ebay, but still good value nonetheless.

oh and their chocolate is fucking good too.

I think Aldi's got some really good shit.

The quality of their products is really high, all Aldi products must pass a quality control test (actually everything you buy passes a test, even 'Black and Gold' Tampons)

I know from insider knowledge that their cereal is made in Australia, their electronics come from IT Central - ie. China. And the meat is from South Australia, where the cows have grass to eat.

Aldi is number 1 for most things you buy at coles and woolies, and cheaper-don't forget.

Only problem is, you have to line up with all those sleazy asians at hurstville aldi, and the checkout chick is on speed !
