My local guitar store is selling an Ampeg SVT Micro head and Micro 210 cab for $199 each. I am tempted. Is $398 as good a price as I think for this? (It's show room new, BTW). |

- What does this gear go for used?
- Are you considering this because it seems like such a great deal or that you've been considering buying it for a while?

That's a fair price, if you like it, buy it.

|  | I live in the home for the chronicly groovy | | Join Date: Jun 2011 Location: Lebanon, Or | | | I had a ampeg micro head for a few months, great for living room jams. I did not like the headphone or audio in sounds through headphones. It was noisy & no level control.
Great ampeg type tone, impressive internal construction. Made in China, I bet in the same factory the new Acoustic heads are coming from. I liked it alot for a jam amp. I got it from GC Used for 125 in excellent shape. Cool little head IMO. |

My thought is that with the current problems with adding a second cab that fact may be behind the lower price.
