Got mine in from Hello Music. Super happy with this guitar. I really like the p90's. This guitar feels ALOT like my Variax 700 Acoustic. Such a deal at this price. Fwiw Im giving FW2.0 a spin on it (with some modified strats and 335's) and am pretty happy so far.

You Rock Guitar Gen2 $198
http://www.hellomusic.com/items/yrg-gen2-synth-midi-controller


Overview

What It Is: The Gen 2 You Rock Guitar is a Midi Synthesizer and Controller built with guitarists in mind. This updated version of the extremely popular guitar synth/controller now has completely redesigned onboard sounds including 15 new professionally sampled guitar sounds, 15 new professionally sampled synth sounds, all including a wide variety of guitar, keyboards, strings, brass, woodwinds, and percussive mallet instruments. Besides having its on-board synth sounds, you can connect the You Rock Guitar to your keyboard or Software Synth via a standard midi cable and play those sounds as well. The new Gen 2 pickup greatly improves tracking, and the firmware has been completely redesigned as well, leading to greater playability across the board. This is the perfect tool for musicians who want to create Tablature for their music, and the You Rock works well with Logic, Reason and Ableton just to name a few.

Why this is a great opportunity: Guitarists who aren't familiar with a keyboard can now easily add a wide variety of sounds to their recordings with the You Rock Midi Guitar. There are a ton of great sounds in the built in synth engine, and the ability to expand via midi to tap into your other synth engines makes the sonic possibilities limitless. The touch sensitive fingerboard allows you to tap notes as well as fingerpick or strum notes on the strings. There are a bunch of other great options as well including note correction, which helps players who are just earning their wings. If you wish you had a way to control the soft synths in your DAW, your wish has been granted.

V Synth GT is being blown out at a 1000 dollar mark down at Sweetwater.  For those of you who have researched this board and are on the fence about it, now would be the time to think about grabbing it.

Peavey ReValver MKIII.V Modeling Guitar Amp Software and Plugin - $29.99. (80% discount.) Note that this is boxed, physical product, not a download.

I tried this software a few years ago, before Peavey acquired it from Alien Connections. I was very impressed with it at the time. From what I have heard, it has only gotten better.

Here's the Peavey page for it; note the links to reviews at the bottom: http://www.peavey.com/products/revalver/#downloads

Even though I am in one of my "I am not buying any more software, EVER" moods, I jumped at this.

I got one of these too. The good news it appears to be the very latest full version - not an obsolete stale 2 year old version

Ive been using this Power bag Messenger Bag to carry my GR-55.

Its handy as it also includes a portable recharge battery power source for USB 5V DC Gear (Not GR-55) 

http://bensbargains.net/bargain/powerbag-messenger-bag-wih-charging-system-35-at-103824/

Moofi.woot! has the Powerbag RFAP-0015P Messenger Bag with Built-in Charging System for $30 + $5 shipping = $35 shipped. Sells for $51+ elsewhere. Features removable 6000mAh battery, external one-touch battery level indicator, and built-in Apple, micro USB, and USB ports.



They also have the Rolling Office Case for $45 - but be aware this is for 15.5" Laptops - and GR-55 will NOT fit in the Rolling Office Case.

Hi just noticed Sweetwater has a deal on 4 Traveler Guitars , EG-1 vintage. These usually retail for $499 but are listed for $299 with a Free MI-10 Audio Interface. I own the custom version of this travel guitar and it is absolutely great to play with excellent build. Fits in my suitcase and the neck is bolt on and can be removed so I've fit the whole thing in a carry on once. If you're looking for a travel guitar then check it out.
