Hahaha yeah I go there sometimes, try out a Mesa/Boogie and/or and ENGL, buy some strings then leave. Always fun.

You might want to look at buying a second hand guitar, that way you can get something better. Guitar crazy at Coogee (www.guitarcrazy.com.au) has a pretty good range of 2nd hand guitars and amps (or at least it did when I last went there).
Yeah I got my Ibanez from Guitar Crazy because my music teacher in highschool's brother works there so I got a discount :cool:

I went in there a few weeks ago when me and some friends did a music store crawl and they have a shitload of cool old Ibanez RGs. My friend bought a Laney head that day from them as well.

Definately check them out. Nice guys as well.

Allens music (in the city) has sales at certain times. Also, make sure you play the guitar before you buy it.
I fucking hate Allens. Pack of wankers. When Joe Satriani was here a few years back he did a signing there and me and my friend turned up with about 45 minutes until he left. Allens decided to cut it 20 minutes short so they could get him to sign some of their stuff, and I and about 10 others missed out.

Wankers.
