Members Bim1959 Posted February 3, 2010 Members Share Posted February 3, 2010 I've got a nice recently overhauled working chassis from a Workingman 15 combo amp. It was damaged in shipping when I acquired it, so I dedented it, replaced the pots, IEC connector, power switch and most of the jacks. I dont have the cabinet it was in and didnt get it with it. The only major changes I did to it were to remove the switch that turned the horn off and on, removed the headphone jack and put a micro toggle switch in to replace the push-pull pot for the limiter. I havent put it in photobucket, so the only link I have for pics is: http://quadcities.craigslist.org/msg/1575610567.html This will be great for someone who's good at woodworking so they can make their own shell for it. I'm asking $150 + shipping or trade for some Peavey baskets (I need 18" black widow and 15" black widow & scorpion plus baskets) or a handheld digital recorder.

Members Bim1959 Posted February 9, 2010 Author Members Share Posted February 9, 2010 Nobody? I see there's a few lookers but nobody's responded. It's a great sounding amp. I just dont need it and havent built a shell for it. You can always make me an offer for it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Tone Meister Posted February 10, 2010 Members Share Posted February 10, 2010 You may have the chassis overpriced. For example, I just recently bought the head version of the Working Man's 160 and matching 2x12" cab for $200 cash. I often see the very same setup on CL priced between $200 and $350, depending on condition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bim1959 Posted February 12, 2010 Author Members Share Posted February 12, 2010 Wow. Amazing. Here in my neck of the woods I've never seen both the head AND 2x10 go for $200. Then again, I hardly ever see 2x10 cabinets around here. Usually around $500 - $600 used with a 4x10 cabinet, but never as low as you said. And those I've seen were on CL. Sounds like I'm better off buying some cheap MDF, making & painting a bs shell for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Tone Meister Posted February 14, 2010 Members Share Posted February 14, 2010 Here is one current example for a higher end SWR rig. I bought mine a couple of months ago in very good condition (8.5/10) from this CL region. Of course, different locations will have different pricing. http://eastnc.craigslist.org/msg/1601309721.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bim1959 Posted February 15, 2010 Author Members Share Posted February 15, 2010 Of course different regions will have different pricing. That's why I base my pricing off ebay (because nobody in eastern IA is going to ask what they're going for in eastnc). And when I see 2004 heads going for $299 I look at mine and say that with alot of the guts being new even though it's beat-up looking I should still be able to get $150 for it. Heck, I recently sold a beat-up 2004 head with shell for $200. Like I said, I can always make a MDF shell for it if nobody wants the chassis as is.

Members Bim1959 Posted February 15, 2010 Author Members Share Posted February 15, 2010 But, I am open to offers. If you think I'm too high, then dont bitch. Make me an offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Tone Meister Posted February 15, 2010 Members Share Posted February 15, 2010 Sorry Bim, I wasn't trying to come across the wrong way. My first post (#3) was in response to your second (#2) where you seemed surprised that you didn't have any takers for the repaired chassis. I don't feel that either of my previous two posts were complaints, but instead were an attempt to help you understand why the chassis hasn't sold. I just want you to know that I wasn't trying to piss on your boots. TM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
