My bass! Not because it was great, but because now I'm bass-less.
 
I truly regret getting rid of my Diezel...... SIKE! bitches I still got that shit! :lol: :LOL:
 
I sold a 69 SG in 89 for like $600 so I could fund my purchase of my Boogie studio preamp.

It was the 80s and the SG just wasn't in. It funded what would be my main rig for 15 years so I guess it was OK.

I sold my whole rig and back up rig about 6 years ago: Marshall JMP-1, ADA MP-1, Marshall JFX-1, ART SGE, Marshall 20/20, Marshall 8008, Tokai LS75, Orville LP Custom, Jackson PC3 and various pedals simply because I needed the money to pay the bills when I got laid off from work.

I guess I don't regret selling the gear because I really needed the money to support myself and my family but I do regret that I found myself in a situation like that in the first place.
 
An early eighties BCR Mockingbird Standard that my mom bought for me when she closed my dad's bank account after he passed. I'd ruined the guitar though, had the neck shaved down and the fingerboard scallopped. Sounded so thin after that. Had to pay some bills, plus I hadn't touched that guitar for months prior to selling it 'cause I was really into Jackson Soloists at the time. Now I'm back to the Mockingbirds :rock:

There is a lot of gear I wish I could have kept but it was all worth it-wanting to try out everything. There is stuff I'd buy again in a second. The only piece I can recall at the moment that I regret selling though is a 69 LPC. Wasn't a show piece by any means but it played and sounded fantastic!
 
Probably a Strymon Brigadier, that i ended up buying back off the guy i sold it too lol

have an el capistan coming through soon, so the brigadier might go back up on the chopping block
 
Marshall Jcm 800 2203 got 3 times what I paid for it but wished I'd held onto it.

A lot of gear over the years,,Budda SD80 head, Tremoverb head, and a black and gold LP Custom are the first three to come to mind.
