HUGE DILEMMA - Need advice FAST!!!

[LeSedna]

I didn't get your deal ?

How the hell do you have a mesa cab for $500 ?

 

[guitarguru777]

Dude ... there are 3 Mesa OS Cabs on Craigslist here in Vegas right now for between $500 and $700

They are ALWAYS being sold around here.

Guys move to town with all this epic gear, get a gig at a hotel / casino and the first thing they tell them is NO 4x12 Cabs! They all go out and buy combos or 2x12's and then blow out their 4x12's for crazy prices. Theres a dude who sold a Bogner Ubercab 3 months ago for $850, I just couldn't afford it at the time. I HIGHLY reccomend anyone within driving distance of Vegas keep an eye out. Deals like this pop up all the time.

 

[LeSedna]

Nevermind I got it, I'm tired

EDIT : and I f**king hate those european importators.

A used Mesa 4x12 here is $1000. Even a 2x12 is higher... arf

 

[guitarguru777]

Others have advised it already, but I'll second and third it - don't sell something you love. If you had iffy feelings for it, OK, but if it's something you know that you will ultimately miss, don't sell it. I still regret selling my 80's BC Rich USA Gunslinger Custom oh so many years ago because I needed the money for another purchase. I could have saved the money in a few months and bought what I bought with the money from that guitar instead of selling it, but the bright shinning new item fucked with my judgment and I miss her (my guitar) to this day some 20 years later.

Save for a few months or whatever to buy another Mesa cab, just don't trade something you know you will miss.

Ha .. look another one just posted ...lol

Ampeg with Eminence

Trading these old, strange pieces because they don't seem to have all that much use at the moment always results in banging your head to the wall in a couple of years, seriously.

 

[colonel kurtz]

think of it this way...there's a reason why HE wants to trade HIS mesa for YOUR marshall...

Go the testicle route. It will be easier to replace.

Lasse, that avatar fucking is hilarious!

 

[AHChris]

DUDE!!! I just realized that the european distribution bumped the prices again! The Mesa OS cab is now 1.449€ at Thomann... This is insane! Luckily I bought mine a while ago for 1.149€, which is still an awful lot of money.

 

[Notuern]

I find it pretty interesting that the guys who voted for you to swap it seems afraid of showing their faces here.. SHOW YOURSELVES, COWARDS.

 

[guitarguru777]

LOL .....

 

[dmmi]

As another poster suggested.....I vote for keep it 'cause you love it and are used to it...then save, save, save.

(I didn't "officially" vote 'cause I don't think you should tell him to fuck off...haha)

 

[guitarguru777]

Ok so hes taking the deal .....

$500 I buy the Recto and hes gonna take it and go buy a Marshall 1960 on Craigslist for $400 ... we both get what we want. I get a steal of a deal on the cab, and he still has $100 in his Pocket

Expect Pics tomorrow as the deal goes down then

 

[462studio]

This is the best possible scenario. Congrats.

 

[AboutBlank]

I fucking hate you yanks for the Mesa prices

btw, I would trade

 

[006]

Just my opinion, I would have just traded it. Actually I would have never even owned that Marshall cab personally in the first place. But you already made a deal for it, congrats on the Mesa

 

[guitarguru777]

Dude it sounds SOOOO GOOOD... you would totally be impressed it doesn't sound like a typical Marshall.
