Awesome For Sale Ad On Craigslist (Really...... Not Spam)

Sign in to disble this ad
I came across this while scanning craigslist the other day. I thought it was a freakin' riot.

So I pop home the other day to grab some lunch and watch a little Judge Judy. Low and behold, there is the guitarist for my band, "jammin'" with the old lady. Since we hold practice at my place, I have all of his gear. I would sell his guitar too but it is in pretty bad shape, hanging out of a hole in the bedroom wall.

Here is the low down on the amp. This thing is ALWAYS louder than my amp. It is a peavey XXL 212 and apparently has no volume knob because that son of a cocksucker would never turn it down. It has three channels, Clean, Crunch, and Look At Me, I Am Playing Another Lead! It has a foot switch that changes between the channels and turns on and off the effects loops so you can have a ginourmous home made pedal board and look like the biggest douche that ever graced the stage of the Riot Room. There is also a reverb so you can make your guitar sound like the moaning echos of a man who's wife is a cheating whore. I would put up a picture but if you are smart enough to find craigslist, I am certain that you can google Peavey XXL and see about a brazillion pictures of what this thing looks like. I assure you, it is in pristine shape, as the former owner took care of it like it were his baby. Well, he is busy taking care of other things now, isn't he? Please buy this thing before I throw it through the window of his house.

Also, looking for a new guitarist

Good idea. The first idea I would have is to burn all his ****. But this way you get some money out of it.
