Getting rid of Gear

Like most anyone getting rid of gear its because they need money. I don't gig and I really don't play like I used to and I think this gear could go to much better use with someone else. I thought I would try here first. Everyone here is solid and I would feel most comfortable selling to someone here. Most of you seem set with your gear but who knows, right?

If your interested in anything, PM me and I will get back to you and we can talk about prices. I don't have a computer at my apartment so I only check the site when I am at work. So I will get back to you.

If anyone has gotten rid of gear before, what did you find most effective? Locally, eBay, etc???


Gibson Les Paul Classic w/case (had for about a year, never been used except for in my apt)

Thanks.

    The Blues Jr looks awesome is that a relic?

    I don't think so Pac. Like I said i bought it used at Guitar Center and it is kind of beat up on the surface but a great sounding amp. Not even sure what year it is or anything.

    For anyone considering buying from Mike (?ing my education) I bought my Black Epi Les Paul from him last May and his stuff is pretty well taken care of. He even shipped the hard case with it and upgraded pickups. Buy with confidence.

    check the back if you would when you get a chance. I'm guessing it has a Jensen speaker. That's a pretty nice little amp.

    yeah, then it is a relic because that is exactly what it looks like. I don't know a lot about amps, this was my first tube amp and I love the sound of it.

    Kinda funny, I have that exact same strat. Same color, rosewood fretboard, MIM, and it's got a few scratches of its own.
