B stock hydrive combo

[apollo18]

I've been shopping for a combo amp that I like and the first one I bought was a gk mb115. I liked it but shortly after owning it for a couple weeks the tweeter started distorting so gc took it back. I was going to get another mb115 but started to like the hydrive stuff but most of them on eBay are refurbished or b-stock. I never see refurb or b-stock from other brands. Why is that. ?

HyDrives are pretty awesome - Hartke has a tough, internal QC policy. The "B" stock items run perfectly, they're possibly not perfect cosmetically.
If there is/was something "functionally" imperfect, it's fixed, but then sold as "B" stock anyway . . .
Fab deals, no question . . .

I bought a Eden B stock combo great amp some brands don't like refurbishing anything because buyers see it as a negative but I see it as a chance to get something that's been gone over and sold at a great price.

The hyDrive 15 inch 250 combo is a great sounding amp and quite light.

Every company in production of any kind has B stock.

I had a B stock Hydrive 12c combo. The head just stopped powering up one day randomly. I sent it back to Hartke for repair. They were great to deal with and I got it back about a month later and it worked fine!
I sold it immediately. The tone was never really my thing and it was fairly heavy for such a small amp. I found the compressor and distortion channel to be pretty much useless. "At least for me"


Just my 2 cents!
