Pieman Posted June 11, 2007 Posted June 11, 2007 I bought this amp two years ago. I saw the original review in Guitar Player around 1992 and later bought the Classic 50 2x12 version. I liked that amp. I bought this one from a guy locally two years ago. It sat in his closet for years. He wanted to learn to play, but he gave up. I have played this about 10-20 times in the last two years. I don't think I ever dimed it. It has not left my house. I bought it locally because these are a load to pack right and about $50-60 to ship. I, too, gave up lessons because I had no time to practice. I have other amps but that are smaller and loud enough for my limited skills.The amp is in very, very good shape. No torn tolex or grill cloth. There is an eraser-sized small impression near one of the corner brackets. There are no tears or snags in the grill cloth. There are 2-3 places where the threads are slightly askew, but other than that the grill cloth looks almost new. It comes with the Peavey two-button footswitch and a nice heavy duty Peavey cover. No ugly Peavey faceplate.I have this listed in the Cleveland Craig's List for $400. Will sell to the HFC for $350 including shipping with a US Post Office money order. If you want to PayPal, then you pay the fee. Available for p/up in Cleveland for $325. PM me if you are interested and want to see photos. Thanks. tk
crabby Posted June 11, 2007 Posted June 11, 2007 email on the way, I'll take it for $350 shipped and insured.
crabby Posted June 11, 2007 Posted June 11, 2007 damn good buy... I hope so,,, I'm lookin' forward to playing through it!
Pieman Posted June 11, 2007 Author Posted June 11, 2007 And now crabby wants it insured on top of the outstanding deal ! Any lawyers out there who can tell me if he accepted my offer or if he only made me a counter-offer?
BadgerDave Posted June 11, 2007 Posted June 11, 2007 And now crabby wants it insured on top of the outstanding deal ! Any lawyers out there who can tell me if he accepted my offer or if he only made me a counter-offer?Easy one. Acceptance with added terms constitutes a declination of the initial offer and a counter offer subject to acceptance by the initial offeror.1st year contracts.You, sir, are not bound!edited 'cause I can never keep that damn offeree vs. offeror thing straight.
Pieman Posted June 11, 2007 Author Posted June 11, 2007 What if I insure for a dollar? He didn't say how much the insurance should be.
BadJaxx Posted June 11, 2007 Posted June 11, 2007 Badger is correct..... however, it would behoove you to take pity on the poor guy being as he's from....Kentucky... it would not be PC to take advantage of the Culturally Challenged....
crabby Posted June 11, 2007 Posted June 11, 2007 Hey guys, I didn't realize that I was asking for so much when I asked for insurance, we're just talking an additional $2.40 for the insurance for $400,,,,,,,,, I ship guitars all the time (just last week in fact) so I deal with UPS here in this little o' town in little o' Kentucky all the time,,, here's how UPS does it, the first $100 of insurance coverage on a package is FREE then it's 80 cents for each $100 of additional coverage, at least that's the price they charge here,,,,,, I've emailed you Tom, When you emailed your address you didn't mention this as being the least bit of a problem, in fact , I thought you had just forgotten to mention the insurance in the add,,,,,,, I've emailed telling you the money order is on the way so,,,,,,,,,,, I'll be happy to mail the $2.40 if it helps at all,, just let me know.
Pieman Posted June 12, 2007 Author Posted June 12, 2007 Just foolin'. I have wrapped it up tonight. The kids carved windows in the UPS boxes I had downstairs, so I need to find or build a decent box tomorrow and get some more padding. This is a sixty-pound brick and it needs adequate support even though its only going over over the state line. You'll see what I mean when you get it.
BadJaxx Posted June 12, 2007 Posted June 12, 2007 we were just kidding ya, Crabby...Pieman....on the off chance you're close to me, i have a box that would probably fit it...
Jeff R Posted June 12, 2007 Posted June 12, 2007 This is a sixty-pound brick and it needs adequate support even though its only going over over the state line. You'll see what I mean when you get it.You got that right. I played a gig with a borrowed one of these 10 or so years ago and had it on the front seat of my Honda Civic. Had to hit the brakes unexpectedly and like a dummy, I didn't have a seatbelt on the amp.Thanks to the law of inertia, I got to replace a windshield.

A theory is all it is. Just one opinion. I for one don't believe in it, so it's not true. If you don't think like I do, you're a blasphemous un-believer.
kizanski Posted June 12, 2007 Posted June 12, 2007 Thanks to the law of inertia, I got to replace a windshield.Badger: Can Jeff sue the man or woman that signed the Inertia Bill into Law?

Pieman Posted June 12, 2007 Author Posted June 12, 2007 Well. once again, I lost money on a piece of gear, but made it up in smiles.
