Coronavirus and gear sales....

[blackba]

I expect the low ball offers to increase. And its still gonna be hard to move 412s. Saw a Vox 412 for $160 in great shape. Tempting, but I would rather have a standard suhr Reactive load at this point.

I sold a Les Paul Studio Platinum on Reverb that had been sitting there for 5 months, and the guy only haggled me down $50 from what I had listed. That said, I did drop the price $200 over the course of the 5 months, but it all worked out.

Let's face it... top-shelf gear isn't marketed to low income earners. If anything, most sellers are going to up their pricing; thinking those under quarantine are going to alleviate bordom, by purchasing more stuff. It's going to take more time before people begin to liquidate low priority assets.

Tip: Check for gear sales/offers on firearm forums. That Gibson R9 is nice... but, it won't protect you during a break-in when/if food supplies dry-up.

I haven't checked recent prices Texas Gun Trader but I've actually been thinking about selling a couple of my Glocks that I don't need. Previously it wasn't worth selling them, but now may be the time... and make a profit too. lol

Scored this for 4 bills today..seller would have taken $50 less..awesome little amp that drives a 2 x 12 16 ohm cab better than it's own speaker..Couldn't be happier..fits a specific need ..

I'm still looking at a G&L Legacy that is dirt cheap, but yes, the good deals are getting snatched up quickly..I as well as everybody hates lowballers...won't respond to over priced stuff and won't haggle in any case...Reverb, IMHO, is WAY worse for the lowballer bullshit than CL

There’s a clean EVH Stealth 100s on reverb for $1049. Pretty cheap.

The guy I sold my TriAxis to told me it was because of Covid lockdown. He is bored. Covid sales good. Boogie quad pre amps have been selling north of a grand even if they're non-working!

Triaxis is cool, but that MESA/Boogie Quad is one bad bitch!

Triaxis by John Bazzano, on Flickr

$675.00 for the Triaxis, which is like new and came with the box and tube protectors, $300.00 for the 50/50.

Also scored here tonight - Strategy 400 by John Bazzano, on Flickr

I did not think I'd win the Strategy, but local only, no shipping doomed this guy. Now, I have a 52 minute drive to pick it up. The New York Governor has banned all travel except essential travel. Is this considered essential travel? I'll let you know.

I tried a slew of amps recently. I needed to know if I was missing something? I tried all sorts of different brands, and man, I do like to Boogie! They just have more, more gain, more tone, more options, more of everything I like compared to anything else. And zero hiss. No boost pedal or gate needed. This triaxis is loaded with settings, the perfect item for a tweeker on an isle of isolation.

I've got a kick-ass red channel mod for the Triaxis, if ya need it.

there is very little music gear around here but guns and ammo have really went up in price. WV has not been hit hardly at all though, which is a blessing.
