Does it say Bogner Volume pedal or is it Bogner pedal under "volume pedal" category? At GC when they build in the used gear for pedals it only gives like 3 options: volume pedals, multi effect, and don't remember the 3rd. No option for overdrive/dist, mod, delay... Stupid but whatever, but yes half the time they still don't know shit about what they have.
 
So alot of guys finding the deals Local or on line?
I went to my local GC...bought a 4x12 that was loaded with V30's and GH12's for $200

PLayed it about a year then parted it out. Made about $400 off the speakers alone and $30 for the empty cab. :lol: :LOL:
Wasnt my intention.....but hey...whaddya gonna do?

In store sometimes the Atlanta downtown store has crazy markdowns. They have an EVH Stealth, black, whammy bar, 799$. Half price. I played it. Fine guitar. They said a new model was coming out and they have to get all old style units gone or they will never sell them. I have just bought a Suhr Tele, so I had to let that one sit. I almost considered buying it to sell.

I will let you know after I get it...love to keep the Aldrich, Jub and a stock JMP but I'm afraid the wife will only let me keep 2..gotta find a way to hide the 2204 lol....I was trying to decide between the 79 2204 and a 76 2203 that had a fan mod..the 79 appeared stock so I went for it. Yeah it always pays to check out GC online from time to time..

A good old Bed sheet folded over it and a lamp on top.....with a magazine next to the lamp.
Worked FOR YEARS in the Jam room for me. :D
Hiding/smuggling gear was a Specialty of mine. :lol: :LOL:

I once got a 77 2203 for $300, 76 Superlead 50 watter for $575, 78 twin reverb $275, 70's Marshall checker 4x12 with blackbacks $499, fender super champ xd $159 . I also have seen "vintage" gear listed for double the going rate so it can work both ways there.
Wow I thought I got some great deals...those are killer. There's a Voodoo modded 1959 RI that they had for 2999, now it's 1999 lol...I sold one on ebay a few years ago for 1400..they can underprice some and overprice others lol...I don't think they ever look on ebay to see what items are actually going for.

It's funny but I get busted by the boxes that I try to keep for future re-selling if I decide to...if the packaging was good why not re-use it? She can't tell if I have a different head but DAMN she notices a new cardboard box that I tried to hide..lol
