Just retubed= ..........

I unboxed it brand new, plugged in and I still suck, I boxed it back up, and am claiming it's re-tubed because it's only seen 11 minutes of play time.

This is such an odd thread for RT since pretty much everyone here uses these phrases. I would imagine that most of you are honest when doing so. I know I use some of them and have been honest when doing so...such as need cash but will accept some trades. I lost my job and need cash but will sometimes need to accept a partial trade to stimulate a deal. I also just had to sell some stuff to pay a partial vet bill for my cat (which wasn't even posted.) I think it is pretty hilarious to see this tread here of all places. I guess I should rethink my original assessment.

^lol

I actually do have a few amps to sell, retubed last in the last few months but little playtime in Madison Square Garage
Turns out I like searching, acquiring & flipping amps as much as I like playing them

Back on topic- "a real workhorse"= sounds awful but always works
 
Selling this Diezel amp and it is BRUUUUUUUTAL but too much amp for my needs = Maxed out my credit card to brag that I owned a Diezel amp but don't really have money for it so I'm selling before the wife finds out.
 
"Recently serviced" = it broke, I had it fixed and I'm dumping it before it breaks again.
 
I'm giving it away....

In a recent thread. I was inspired.

You have no idea how close I've come to this shit... :D

"Rare ____! Only 4 in the whole country!" = I have no fucking idea what this thing is, nor what it's worth, I just wanna see what someone will pay for it so I can buy a Diezel. This is pretty much every guitar forum everywhere.

RT nation phrase:

I'm selling this because it's too much amp for me = this didn't sound anything like Mark Day's vid with the same amp so it's gone.
 
Guitar was recently set up = I have got this thing is so fucked up I brought it to a pro and it still sucks so i'm selling it

And therefore, should be gooped.
 
Another great quote

"amp was recently sent back to the company for a checkup and it was given a clean bill of health"


I don't know about you but I have never paid shipping to have a working amp gone over by the manufacturer before i sell it :confused:
 
"Need to sell this" "I still have 15 days to return it...." but would rather go through the hassle of bumping and being low balled than calling and getting a RTV and waiting for them to refund my money.
 
Or bought this on my credit card and need to pay it off.

Would rather have cash in hand but still make monthly payments... Sort of like a loan.
 
Brilliant! With the exception of some of these political threads, probably the funniest thread I've read on this board.

You guys are killing it.

:)
 
Selling this unit because I'm not a "tweaker" = I have no idea how to work this piece of shit and I don't have time to read a manual longer than the Obamacare bill.
 
My personal favorite is the Buddy bump:

For Sale:( Insert RT flavor of the month here)

Buddy bump: I CANT BELIEVE THIS IS STILL HERE!!! Somebody needs to buy this!= I told him that thing was heinous POS before he bought it, but he is my bud so I am conspiring with him to fuck over an unsuspecting buyer.
 
I use high end boutique cable and can hear subtle nuances between the notes

=

I use my Peterson strobe tuner but can't tune my guitar by ear for shit
 
"terribly expensive boutique amp" for sale or trade for "tried and true amp" plus cash = Thought the $3.5k amp would make me sound better, but have come to terms with my sucking and ready to quit but don't want a dollar less than what I paid. If some guy doesn't have the cash, I can get half the cash, then sell the amp he gives me to make up the rest, possibly more
