FT: (Long-shot) 800RB for Hybrid

Sign in to disble this ad
I realize this is a long-shot, but I'm looking to trade my 800RB for a nice Hybrid amp. The one caveat is I don't have any cash to add. I love my 800 but I'm curious to try a different head. I know the 800RB is pretty cheap on the used market, but I was hoping someone would be willing to trade based on NEW values. Since going back to school, my cash flow is pretty limited (my wife and I are paying as I go). One other option I have is, I'm a hobby pedal builder, I've mostly done fuzzes and boosters, but I would be willing to build something for you if you would like, maybe even put together a GGG kit or something.
I do promise that if I decide to trade or sell what I receive from this thread I will not sell it for more than the value of a used 800RB or I will trade it back for another 800 (kind of a pay it forward type deal).
Now about the amp I have. It is an early 90's model (horizontal switch, red LEDs) it is in really good shape for its age there are some scratches here and there, but all of the knobs still have their caps and none of the fins on the heat sinks are bent. It also still has the original side handle and I have 3 of the original rubber feet that were on the side, but I glued some different ones on so I could set it sideways when I wasn't holding it.

I know I shouldn't look a "gift-horse" in the mouth but the amps I'm really curious about the GB Streamliner 600, Ampeg SVT-7, or the GK MBFusion. Let me know if any of you are looking for that classic GK growl.

Thank,
Matt

Bump. My GAS is fading the more I play this amp, but if the right deal comes along I'll probably jump on it.

What is the value you're looking to get for your amp in trade?

Are you interested in an outright sale? Price?

They are about $800 new (but only sell for about $350-400 used) so I'm hoping someone will be willing to trade for another amp that is about $800 new. I'm not looking to sell, I'm only keeping this ad up for one more day.
