Super steal! Mesa Boogie Content

Sign in to disble this ad
All,

Its been awhile since I posted, but I had to share! I went to a general auction today and wound up with a Mesa Boogie 410 for $70! I couldn't believe it! A Peavey 410 went for about $100 right before it.

I came home and plugged it in and it sounds absolutely amazing!

Just wanted to share...
Ox.

I believe that you are correct sir, but I just couldn't help myself... the good picks have been slim lately!

Yeah I would not be able to resist either.

Ah yes, I know the rules, but I couldn't wait to post. I will knock the dust off the top of it and try to get some pics up tomorrow.

Also... no lie, a guy bought a pair of Ampeg 810s for $50 each. I couldn't believe it! I would have hit that too, except I am running out of room in my music room at this point!

I've heard it all about these auctions, vintage Fenders for $200, Hammond B-3s for $100, and now a Mesa cab for $70. I need to go to one of these.

I still cant believe it... I am sitting here in amazement at the deals that I got there (not all bass related).

Some other deals that I saw go by:

A Peavey 115 for $10. A Fender Bassman 10 for $300. A Mackie 24 channel mixing board for $110. A Carvin 500W head, 115 and 210 all together for $50. 2 x Peavey 18" Bass traps for $75.

Just unreal... but I think that I did get the crown jewel (even though the Bassman was sweet).

Thats why no one goes to the north from the south... but the reverse can't be said. Ya'll come back now, ya hear?

I am still sitting here thinking ***??? This is the BEST buy I have gotten. #2 is the RD500 (I forget the price now, but it was under $200 and I still pick it up to this day... awesome bass).
