Members The Bear Posted March 13, 2010 Author Members Share Posted March 13, 2010 What the hell are you waiting for good buddy??? A guitar you don't play for one of the greatest amps ever built? And Custom Shop to boot? I'd do it in a heartbeat. PS Just traded an Artstar AF-120 in exc. cond. on CL for an old PA with some Crate three ways and an old Sunn head. Would've been better off in the finance dept just to give him his asking price - very low, but the wife wouldn't have it. True value is utility I believe and I'm happy. Thia sucks.Gut just called me ands said the deal is off.He was going to talke my LP and trade with a riend for his guitar.His friend changed his mind.Bummer. Oh well, I still giots' the GT. Thanks for all the advice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members lowbrow Posted March 13, 2010 Members Share Posted March 13, 2010 Well, at leasat you now know the LP is a gonner and you can shop around at your leisure for another trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ExiledCrow Posted March 13, 2010 Members Share Posted March 13, 2010 It's a very nice amp and since you just couldn't bond with that neck there's no point to YOU having that guitar. Something you will use for some something you won't is almost always a good deal. Oops, just saw the deal is off, but the advice still holds ...

Members Alchemist Posted March 13, 2010 Members Share Posted March 13, 2010 well thats a shame, but I say put it out there and see what trades you can get also dont limit yourself to the big names (marshall, fender, etc).... try to see if you could get a nice Dr Z, Victoria, Bad Cat amp etc.....

I backed out, a month later he is now desperately trying to sell the acoustic for the same price that my electric would go for in a heartbeat.... I wont give details because who knows, the guy probably posts or lurks this forum point is, everyone think their stuff is worth a tonne of money, but the way the economy is, thats just wishful thinking, so dont throw your money away....

I know what you're sayin'I also understand where he's comming from.His amp is $3000.00 new and the GT is now around $2200.00 new.Both are in excellent condition.I really don't want to give the cash, because I have another "thing" working with a friend.He has a M1A/M14 w/ Springfield Illuminated, Caliber specific, hunting scope.I pretty much commited, 50/50, to buy his rifle for a grand.Which is a fantastic price considering a new M1 is around $1500.00-$2000.00, and the scope costs around $800.00.As an investment, this deal is much beter than the Twin.I'm also selling an AR15 Bushmaster V Match, Match grade AR, for $1100.00, but I'd take $1000.00.It has a fully fluted, free floating barrel and custom A2 sights w/carry handle.It is extremely accurate.I PM'd you a pic.The M1 holds a place in my heart though, and I have an M4 that is my main #1 rifle that I'll never sell. So, I'm now totally confused on what to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members newbuilder Posted March 13, 2010 Members Share Posted March 13, 2010 I have been skimming and I am sorry if I missed this already discussed (real sorry, don't shoot!). Now that you are on a mission, have you posted threads in the amp, electric guitar for sale areas as well as our smap thread for a new trade? Wish I had the amp you want, I dig 60s profile.
