Members cbh5150 Posted September 27, 2008 Members Share Posted September 27, 2008 Overall, yes, it's a good deal - better if it's a made in USA version. Don't know if you've played through one before, but I had one briefly - it does teh crunch nicely, but if you need any kind of clean headroom, it won't do it for ya...

Members cavpilot Posted September 27, 2008 Members Share Posted September 27, 2008 $75 is a kick ass price if it's in good shape. You could flip it easy if it wasn't your cup o' tea and make $25-$50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Verne Andru Posted September 28, 2008 Members Share Posted September 28, 2008 God I paid $279 for a V58(new). That's what I paid for my V8. I thought it a bit rich at the time, but there weren't a lot of options. I had talked to MF before I bought and they hinted that prices would drop if I waited. No indication how long the wait would be. I ordered and a few months later LOUD announced they were moving production to Vietnam. A couple of years later and they were blowing them out at MF for around $125. I think $150 is about right. No regrets though cause I've gotten tons of fun out of this little box over the past few years that I wouldn't have had if I had waited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Roy Brooks Posted September 28, 2008 Members Share Posted September 28, 2008 $75 is a very good price for practically any tube amplifier in good working condition, even a Palomino 8. I have one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
