Studies have shown that the moon influences a person's behavior and for me, it's acquiring something with the Aguilar name on it. This time, I seem to have doubled up on AG500's (how could
that happen? LOL). Realizing that I don't really need TWO dual channel Aggies, I'm letting one go.

The basics can be looked up on Aguilar's website if you feel so inclined - 500 watts, 4 ohms, 18 lbs. etc. This amp can run any cabinet (1x12's to 8x10's) with only one result: amazing. I'm not the first owner of this amp so I can't comment on how old it is. Cosmetically and functionally it is in excellent condition with one very small exception: the on/off status indicator is going bad.
It has absolutely zero effect on anything except the little blue LED that tells you your amp is on. The strange thing is that it only occurs on occasion. The light will fire right up sometimes, other times it comes on after a minute or two...weird. I contacted Aguilar about it and they confirmed that it is indeed just the blue LED going bad, and sent me a new one. I have yet to break out the soldering iron to install it but I will definitely include the new LED with the amp. From Aguilar:

Hi Adam,
Please accept my apology for such a late response.
I checked with our tech and it probably just needs a new status LED. Please send me your address and I will ship one to you at no charge.
Kind regards,

AG500 will come in original box w/manual, footswitch, rack ears, and power supply.
Traded to Nino. EDIT: Here's what I am considering at the moment...
1) an outright sale for $740 shipped in the US-48
2) trade plus a few bucks for a GK 700RB-II
3) trade plus a few bucks for an Eden WT400 or WTX500 w/rack ears
