So Dave, if you have time, I’m serious. If you can check it out and confirm the condition is as stated in the ad, and the neck and TR are fine, I want it. That is too good a price to pass up.

Says price is firm but still available. I’ll check it out.

 

[MCF]

No problem. Will give a call.

Thanks Dave! I appreciate it. You’re a good friend.

Thank you!

The Bass Church is a very cool, very quirky place.

I think this is a question for @Chucky Stiletti I found a local Sunn 200S for $400 but the fuse holder is broken. So, can’t test it. At that price is it too much of a risk?

Update: fuse holder was replaced and amp tested. Working but has a hum they believe are issues with the capacitors.

That is a good price on a Studio, generally they're about $1100-$1300. Mine was $900 2 years ago, but that was an awesome price from a fellow TBer.

I asked for better photos but here’s what was in the ad. Could use some cleaning and a new knob. The fuse holder was before repair.

One of my all time favorite bands! Pretty much like none other. Martin is playing the Tbird he shamed Overend into selling to him. I have the very cool boxed set. A must for any fan. Lots of rare live show discs.

Damn I'm so envious of that box, never could afford it. I wish they will eventually release the live albums separately. I have the Guilford '80 and Glasgow '77 which were released by Madfish after the box.

I've seen photos from 1972 where Martin plays a Thunderbird II. Was it the first one he got from Pete Watts?

If I didn't know that was a working amp I would have sworn there was no glass on those power tubes.

noted……
not about liking or disliking anybody…..back to the original point that some drum intros are clever in that they seem much easier to execute than they truly are…..

With the potful of channels on Sirius/XM, if something comes on I'm not a fan of (there's a lot), I hit another pre-set.

I took my ugly mug off already.

There is some funkiness in those photos. But, it’s only 4 miles from my house, so easy inspection.

Been hearing a lot of ads from the AM broadcasters trying to organize a counter attack. Some of the ads are trying a political angle saying that it is an attempt to kill off talk radio.

AM is archaic……comparing it to satellite is like comparing SpaceX to a 1292CLC373 steam engine…..surprised it’s lasted this long…

I did let the seller know that if I could get one of the three items I have listed sold, and it was still available, that I’d come get it…

but from the looks of it, it won’t be. But if one of y’all get it, then that’s a good thing too.

AM radio is dominated by the right-wing echo-chamber anyway. Adios amigos, good riddance to bad rubbish and don't let the door hit you where the good lord split you.

LOL - not to be confused with the left-wing echo-chamber, which is pretty much every single media outlet that isn’t AM radio. I’d gladly say good riddance to both. I just wanna hear music!
