I can technically afford it, but it would only leave me with $600 to survive off of until the middle/end of October when my scholarship money will come in. I'm really not sure what to do here.
Its also more complicated because the band I just joined has a American Standard Strat which they'll let me use, so I don't really need a new guitar for the majority of the time that I'll be playing, but I have really wanted a Deluxe for a while and I wouldn't be able to use the bands strat for anything outside of the band.
Well what do you need to spend the $600 on? Is surviving on cafeteria food or ramen worth getting an American Deluxe?
