$450 for the sunn? is it the 200s? if so, yes probably.

Does he not have the badge, etc, or is he taking them off like an ahole?

he took them off years ago and his asshole friend sold them...

this dood might take 500 for a v4 though! that'd be fun.

450 for a 200S is a good deal considering the market.

If you really "just want to be loud" though, you can get things like Windsors, Butchers, etc. for much less money.

i also want some evil low end too. and i know these amps excel in that department, especially with the right cabs.

the guy i was gonna buy the windsor from suddenly stopped emailing me for no reason, so i decided to shoot a little higher.

Well, 500 for the V4 is good, 450 for the sunn is too. Just do something!

Well in that case, I think the sunn head wins for now. I remember that amp was one of the first sunn heads I played through and I fell in love with that sound right away. I think I am gonna be able to borrow a bassman cab to blast it through from one of my friends, too... :omg:

There are a few sunn heads out here too. Concert basses, Senturas, 2000s's...There's also a 50 watt 1x12 Model T combo going for 1000 right outside the city. Never even heard of such a thing...

i used a 200s as my main guitar amp for a long time and to be honest, it wasn't that loud. it can sound pretty gnar and when i use my baritone and a 2x15 cab it sounds soo doom, but not pants shittingly loud.

If you have this option, nothing else should concern you.
2000s>any other amp you've mentioned.

Especially if you can grab one for cheap. Sub-1000 would be a straight up steal for a 2000S.
