How many were made in last years' crop vs this year (so far)?

Ray 24 and 34 are only axes I've regretted selling. I 'upgraded' but they are both super solid, had one with flats and one with rounds and it's a super solid instrument. Enjoy in good health!

I've no connection to this gear or seller but I have purchased gear from them in the past. Looks like a nice SVT IV Pro. Currently at $350 but there's about a month left on it. https://auctions.josephfinn.com/auctions/67/lot/61193-ampeg-svt-4-pro-series-bass-head-w-rack-mount-case Want but no...

Can someone explain non functioning knobs? Why? Seems to defy every design principle, maybe that's punkrock? I'm not hating, just trying to understand. Passive single Sterlings with volume only can be great instruments (Dart). Are they functional but not wired?

What if... Harley Benton bought them?

I've the older RB400mk4 15" lean back combo and it's voice has no peer. Pairs amazing and unexpectedly with a 2x8.

if buying new this will last you a long time for $600 https://gallien-krueger.myshopify.com/products/mb-115

Someone above mentioned a combo. That’s it that’s the one. 15 Combo with external cab as needed to really open it up. Hope that becomes available about the time I can buy one. Current main is a GK RB-400 IV 15” Combo and it’s ferocious but unwieldy (old heavy lean back version). Love me 15 combos.

Qs: What is the output of the "USB DEVICE PWR" jack? (500mA or 2A? or ?) Why a 12AT7 (as opposed to 12AX7)? Curious as to breakup, gain/headroom, harmonic detail/color, etc. Eden did that on WT preamp, but seems somewhat uncommon. Is that something one might want to switch and is that...

If you live in or near a large city pianos come up at auctions regularly. I got a gorgeous baby grand for $52 including auction fees. $350 to move it and more for two tunings but pianos are very available.

Koss UR-40 have no peer. 40mm Neodymium iron boron rare-earth-drivers suspended beautifully in a super lightweight foldable design. Bonus: they can be found for $35 and under. https://koss.com/products/ur40

Thing about SW is I feel there’s no chance of twisted neck, sprouty frets, etc. and they’ll always throw in nice strings if you ask.
