That guy's a hell of a player and his sounds like one hell of an amp... in my dreams.

free bump from me!

frankyknuckles

Thanks, it really is a great amp. I am open to sensible offers.

Bump

frankyknuckles

have I got the price point wrong on this?

Moe_Zambeek

There's one or two on ebay currently - worth looking at their history perhaps.

I think boutique amp prices are in a bit of a slump, maybe the summer effect. Perhaps wait a month or two?

Alternatively, would coda buy it off you? They'll give you a valuation if you ask.

I've been monitoring certain amps for sale including Tone King and one listed at £1650 Buy It Now on Ebay hasn't sold quickly.  Theres another at £1950. I might have been interested myself if it had been a head or an Imperial but I'm looking for something a bit lighter than the Metropolitan combo.

frankyknuckles

Ok thanks.

Wrt to trading in with Coda, I'm not going to get as good a price from them on a trade as I am from a private sale, an offer on a private sale, even if reduced from my asking price is very likely to be better than a trade price. I can't see Coda offering me a deal on a Falcon that would include cash my way.

Price Revision. £1650.
