Members Zlandicar Posted January 25, 2007 Members Share Posted January 25, 2007 That's about $300 cheaper than average. But dude, it's a Sunn, what price isn't good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members lostandfoundpdx Posted January 25, 2007 Members Share Posted January 25, 2007 about a grand is normal, so one in bad shape would be on par at 850 or so i would say... nonetheless, i say hit it. they are great amps. loud as all goddamnation.

Members murch33 Posted January 25, 2007 Members Share Posted January 25, 2007 My favorite amp of all time. I've seen originals go for well over a grand if they're in good shape. Even the reissues are getting up there in price lately. JUMP on that {censored} for $850! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members gregovertone Posted January 25, 2007 Members Share Posted January 25, 2007 solid price. not a 'deal' but solid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sonic_tooth Posted January 25, 2007 Members Share Posted January 25, 2007 I think that is reasonable as long as the amp is clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sa1126 Posted January 26, 2007 Author Members Share Posted January 26, 2007 it is in damn good condition from what i can see from the pics. i guess we're gonna pick it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members crimson on pink Posted January 26, 2007 Members Share Posted January 26, 2007 considering the last one on ebay sold for 1,600. i'd say that's a good deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members omor Posted January 26, 2007 Members Share Posted January 26, 2007 exactly what i was going to say...I was eying it too...that one was CLEAN! I'm trying to pair my OD120 with a model T for 2 brutally loud amps perfect for everything from sludgey stoner rock to thrashy metal AND ambient sound scapes. the sunn model T is a triple threat, boys.

Members crimson on pink Posted January 26, 2007 Members Share Posted January 26, 2007 argghhh... you have an od120. i want one so bad. an old orange is the only amp i'd trade my sunn for. i'm actually thinking bout unloading to get one. i was waiting for them to hit 2 grand, then off it.

Members Mr.Strat Posted January 26, 2007 Members Share Posted January 26, 2007 This vintage craze is crazy. i bought an early 70's sunn modelt t on ebay a few years ago for only 450 bucks. now they are going for more than 1000. honestly, i didn't think it sound bad, but it really didn't shine on anything for me:bor: it was loud as {censored} though! i still have it though, never play it (well every now and then), now its purely a collectors item waiting for the price to get higher so i can sell it:evil: :evil: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members lostandfoundpdx Posted January 26, 2007 Members Share Posted January 26, 2007 i had one, it was a good amp, but it was sooooo loud i moved on. it is a kiler amp though! i think i got mine at GC for 600 used, it was a reissue, and it was pretty rad, i think i sold it for about the same, i'm kinda kicking myself now, but hell, its all 20/20 hindsight...

Members gregovertone Posted January 26, 2007 Members Share Posted January 26, 2007 $1600. well {censored}. $850 is a bargain. i got mine last year for $600. cave in/isis/pelican are the culprits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Zlandicar Posted January 26, 2007 Members Share Posted January 26, 2007 I thought Isis used Crown and Mackie power amps. But yeah, mostly doom/drone/sludge bands. That and Sunn is finally getting the recognition it should've had 30 years ago - for being extremely reliable, extremely loud and extremely great sounding.
