Sweetwater Gift Certificate PSA

Sweetwater is doing their "Father's Day Gift Certificate" sale again. Basically, buy a gift certificate and they give you a 10% bonus (up to $200). I bought one for $2,000 last year so I could get the max bonus (worth a total of $2,200). I'm still sitting on that one because I just haven't found the right guitar yet. Regardless, I'm buying another one for $2,000 to get the max again. That's $400 of free money, bitches, and $4,400 to pluck down on something cool. To make it even sweeter (<-- pun intended), I use my credit card for the purchase and immediately pay it off so I get 1.5% cash back. It's only $60, but why the hell not?

I think I'd have analysis paralysis if I had $4400 to spend at SW. Good luck with that decision man!

Trigger has been pulled. Sitting on $4,400 in gift certificates (and a sizeable "fun money" stash, if needed). Just need to find the right instrument - or [BE-50 Deluxe]???
The only downside is that Gear Fest is not the best time for me to buy a guitar. You can usually get a good deal, but the crowd makes it hard to spend some quality time to find the right one. I much prefer a quiet weekday evening when you can pick and choose and play...
