Out of the two guitars, 3 amps and 4 pedals I have, only the Danelectro EQ was bought new (Only $40), Anyone else bought most all of their gear used?
I have a 1968 Princeton Reverb I bought about a year ago. It required $60 to tune it up and it has had zero problems since. My buddy has had to have his Blues Jr. replaced 3 times in that period.danbo said:I buy NEW for the warranty,etc. I've traded lots too. Used is OK too but you often get scratchy pots or nasty nicks in the neck,etc. ymmv. :rockon2:
To an extent old Rack gear seems to drop like a Rock look at used ART, Digitech and similar equipment it seems to drop around a 100 or so every year. Soon people won't be able to give that stuff away. And then it will be worth a fortune because everyone will have thrown it away hahahamirthvader said:That's another advantage of shopping used. No depreciation.
