Is this a sweet buy?

Post by foomanfat »

Just need some opinions about this ad.
Been really interested in the Classic 30 and this Classic 50 came up locally. And I really need an actual guitar amp.
Wondering if this was a decent deal.

Ghostland Observatory used to use this as a main amp, seen on their Austin City Limits DVD, and it sounded awesome there. I think Pumkin Pieces used to have one too, you could maybe ask him?

By the way, I am from Myrtle Beach originally, left in 92, haven't been back to visit since 03.

Yeah, I was hoping PP would pop in eventually, I just didn't know if anyone else had any experience with this amp. Particularly price range.
Also, that's quite the move from SC to AK.

I had the 4/10 version for a few years and really liked it. Wasn't crazy about the lead channel but I used pedals for overdrive/fuzz on the clean channel so it wasn't an issue. I live in an apt, don't gig that often so it was too much amp for my needs. I sold it a few months ago on CL for $400. It was an early 90s model in mint cond with cover, foot switch and casters. I probably could have gotten a bit more for it but I wanted a quick sale. I'd been checking prices and the ones I saw were selling for $350 - $450.
