I looked at this in black yesterday and also the baritone at £165 delivered. I have an HB SC Custom active, a classic and vintage and am very happy with all from Thomann.

[@ejbgunny1]

You definitely can't beat the price of HB guitars. Even with shipping! Thanks and have fun with your HB's.

[@koyikoy7877]

Hi sir! Can I ask how much did you spent for shipping and other taxes (aside from the actual item/guitar). Thanks!

[@ejbgunny1]

Hi. Sorry for the late reply. The shipping was around $60usd and there were no import customs tax because I kept total cost of the guitar under 10k php. Ph customs does not include the cost of shipping when calcualting customs tax. Keep the guitar/item under 10k and you're good to go. If uou go over then you will likely pay customs fees.

[@KeansKeysMusic]

Hi Sir, how do you process the shipping from thomann to the Philippines? Is there any other fee's like the customs?

[@ejbgunny1]

Payment for shipping is due the same time you send payment for guitar. The only time you pay customs taxes and fees is if the cost of the item (not including shipping) is over 10k pesos.

[@rjermayne]

​@@ejbgunny1have you tried buying from thomann that's more than 10k? if yes, how much?

[@ronniepaco2793]

Hi, I really wanted to buy the BASS VI version of Harley Benton thru Thomann. Upon checkout VAT is excluded, How do i pay the taxes? Can i message you directly sir?

[@ejbgunny1]

If the guitar (not including shipping) is over 10k php, you will pay customs taxes and fees. DHL will bring your guitar to the Philippines and drop it with Phil Post. They will send it to customs for inspection. After that is finished Phil Post will send it to your local Phil Post office. When you go to pick it up you will pay any taxes and fees owed at that time. All in all it usually takes about 2-weeks for me to receive my guitar from the time of ordering. You can message me directly if you have further queries.

What brand tremelo is that and where did you get it from? I know Dusenberg makes one but it probably costs as much as that guitar making it a poor choice for a budget guitar/ build.... Ah ha! its a copy of the Deusenberg les trem made by Guyker. You made me search and I found it.

[@ejbgunny1]

Yes, there are aftermarket ones out there for much less. Time will tell how it holds up.

[@KarlCabrera-ck7hj]

Hi sir.. I sent you a message on facebook..if you have time, I have a few questions about getting these guitars into the country. Thank you! 😊

[@ejbgunny1]

No problem, Karl. I'll see you over on FB!

[@Justkeepplaying7248]

How much is this guitar without shipping? I want to order from them but dont want to go over 10k. 😂

[@Alfredo78666]

I love this guitar, if only has a couple of humbuckers

[@ejbgunny1]

That's when you reach for your trusty Les Paul

[@jamespcamba4465]

Nice collections, can you play us a tune.

[@ejbgunny1]

Thank you sir. Perhaps I will do that soon

[@johngonzales8224]

Looks great love the plans. but lack of demo is where you lost me. so there are trolls out there. Thats should not deter you. but if I can't hear it there is no point for me.

[@ejbgunny1]

Fair enough. Thanks for your honesty.

[@godsinbox]

shipping is half the price of the guitar. i'm not gonna pay that. DHL can suck it

[@ejbgunny1]

Then don't pay it. It's actually Phil Customs you have to worry about. Not so much DHL.

[@rjermayne]

​@@ejbgunny1 hey there, planning to buy a speaker from Thomann worth 889 USD. Have you tried buying from them more than 10k PHP?

[@ejbgunny1]

@@rjermayne Yes, I purchased a Squier Classic Vibe 50s Telecaster from Thomann. The price of the guitar - euro converted to php - was about 20,500php. When it arrived in the Ph, I had to pay about 6k php in taxes and fees. Not cheap. I probably didn't get the best deal in town but, oh well, I got exactly what I wanted.

[@rjermayne]

@@ejbgunny1 thanks for the response.
