Maybe do an audio tour of it on Youtube, that might help sell it?
Does it come with the floor controller (a real must with these amps)?
The Switchblade came out in 2009 I think, but a lot's happened in the last 8 yrs. If you consider that a 1x12 Boss Katana is 32lbs 11oz and a 2x12 100w Katana is only slightly heavier at 43lbs 11oz these are modern, great sounding, loud and easy to use amp solutions without having to schlapp an additional cab out.
But there's no question that for £250 that's a LOT of amp & I would have thought at that price someone would want it. 128 MIDI store patch capability & mixing valves and digital effects, combined with rock-solid German engineering makes it one versatile, loud and reliable bit of kit!
My AD120VTX is not in dis-similar territory from the perspective of original price. In 2003 with the VC12 floor controller this was over £1200 street price - but I doubt I'd get much more than £250 for the amp if I sold it.

Just because you're paranoid, don't mean they're not after youMaybe try and sell it to a Rush fan somewhere?
Im thinking about it, as it's a nice compact solution, but I can't find many sound clips i'm loving.
different user names?
me mucho confuso
August is a slow month for selling stuff too.
Didn't have that oomph and push I'd been used to and it was a bit lost and soft in the band mix.
IMO I think the iconic look of a marshal stack is very dated these days
Great value for money and covers alot of ground - not just metal.
Only thing I`m really struggling with currently is choice blindness and how to organize sounds sensibly on the footswitch. Also, the supplied footswitch has the buttons quite close together - may try a tc nova to midi switch the sounds, or even splash out on the newer H&K footswitch - but that`s more than 50% of what I paid for the amp...... :-(
The rest of the band think it sounds much better than the previous small amp & 2x12 solution - which I`m now informed sounded a bit `polite`
I also struggle with the patch-based sound approach. In fact I never really used it...I tended to set up 4 basic amp tones and then used pedals for the effects. Mainly because I could never quite settle on how to set up the sounds + effects.
It's also quite big and heavy. Which I find increasingly inconvenient. Maybe I'm just getting old.
And the Pod didn't have phantom power via midi, so I needed to buy a new cable

Just because you're paranoid, don't mean they're not after youI'll probably pull it out of its box and use it.
