Online Exclusive: Roxy's Music Store, Raptor Backstage II Guitar Kit

By Howard B. Owens

I find this exciting: In a special arrangement with Roxy's Music Store, 228 W. Main St., Batavia, we can offer exclusively to readers of The Batavian a Raptor Stage Backstage II Guitar Kit, from Peavey, at a substantial cost savings.

The recommended retail price is $450. We're offering it exclusively on The Batavian for $295.

I played this guitar a little bit in Roxy's the other day and I'm impressed. I wish guitars of this quality were available at this price when I was first learning to play. I might have practiced more. It's well balanced, stays in tune, is easy to finger and plays and looks pro.  This is a heck of a deal for a beginner or intermediate player, or even an experience player who is looking for an axe to just keep handy around the house.

The kit includes the guitar and travel amp as well as a guitar strap, digital tuner, strings, picks and the new Peavey/Rock House Method Total Musician Series DVD for helping the beginning player get started on the road to R-O-C-K in the U-S-A.

The guiar is solid body and features a dual single-coil plus one humbucker pickup configuration with five-way pickup selector and master volume and tone controls.

The Backstage amp features technology that emulates the tone, response and dynamics of tube amplifiers. The amp includes high and low EQ controls, a 6 1/2" speaker, switchable TransTube overdrive, a tape/CD input for jamming with a player's favorite songs and a headphone input quiet practice.

There is only one item available at this price and it is exclusive through The Batavian. The winning purchaser will need to arrange to stop by The Batavian office to pick up a purchase voucher. The kit must be picked up in the store. No delivery is available.  This item will be available until it sells and only one kit at this price is available.

The Batavian will have more online exclusive deals coming in the next week or two. If you would like to be notified when they're posted, sign up for our Deal of the Day e-mail list.

Nice Guitar and Great music Store!! Alot of the areas local bands use Roxys for their supplies. I know my brother Ron and the boys from Noahs Reign visit frequently. Ron plays a very unique guitar, a 7string Shector. Tom the drummer has an amaising double bass yamaha drum kit, and uses special drumsticks from Roxys.
The Band Noahs Reign is performing @ The Center St. Smokehouse Saturday nite 5/2 @ 9:30pm. They give an action packed show with lots of audience participation. If you like modern Rock and Roll, come on down and dance, and sing the night away with they guys and the fans we call "The Reign Train"!! myspace.com/noahsreign
