Withdrawn: Matchless Nighthawk Reverb 15w Combo

jimmyguitar

Amazing amp, beautiful sound. Selling as I have bought a Clubman Reverb and having two Matchless amps feels a bit extravagant! I can't stress enough how wonderful this amp feels to play. The reverb is quality too.

what I buy things for and what I'm willing to part with them for are usually very different! I'm a bargain hunter extraordinaire!

I got a tax rebate the other day - just shy of £3k. At first I was gutted I didn't take the plunge on your 69 SG. I feel better now. ;-)

Especially when I saw you'd immediately bought a 71 SG at a bargain price.

that sg was an actual bargain at 2.5k, I was really surprised it didn't sell quicker. I lost money on that so it does happen!

Why don't you leave the man alone to sell his gear in peace? 

Another sales thread trolled.

What's the difference between the Nighthawk and the Lightning?

I know, man, I know. I was only messin. It's just revealing that my first emotion on finding out about this (unexpected) tax rebate was anger, not excitement. I really wanted that SG. Still, I'm sure I'll be spreading the joy on the classifieds :-)

Thinking about I do need really want a new amp...

Withdrawn: I seem to be upsetting a couple of people on here by not passing my gear on for what I paid for it so I think I'd rather stick to other outlets for sales. I will of course frequent the FB's other features as per usual

I've had this too. People seem to be skirting carefully around rule 7...

Ok but Rule 1 applies too

I didn't buy the Matchless on here and I don't consider myself dick-like for attempting to sell an amp for what it is worth 'used'. Surely it's better to give fretboarders first dibs on something as cool as a matchless for a fair price than head straight to eBay? I wouldn't bother listing it if I expected only £700, I'm not THAT tired of it! My NAD thread was posted with genuine excitement at owning the amp, but it inspired me to buy its bigger brother. Now I need to pay for the bigger brother! I'll stick to eBay in future to avoid this cross-examination. Shame though...

You aren't alone. There are rules here to stop this very thing happening, yet on a continuing basis they happen. Spoils an otherwise excellent forum, and the primary reason I wouldn't give stuff away here. 

I wish you well with your sale Pal, wherever that may be. 

BTW, I've got a lovely Matchless too, that I also got at a very competitive price some years ago. That, like yours, will not be that price when it comes up for sale soon. I guess I need to find a suitable hair shirt emporium to satisfy the growing consensus here.

Thanks mate. Strange isn't it? If I saw a forumite selling something and getting a profit I'd just think 'fair play' and move on.

Rule 1 comes into play when you purposefully go behind someone's back and snipe a deal from them a la @gassage 's thread posted today. That is a different kettle of fish.

I am a nice guy and only here to mingle with other gear nuts but I'm also sensible with my money and can't afford to give stuff away 'for the cause'.

Good luck with your Matchless sale... I'll put my offer of £500 in now

Wasn't directed at you, but the rule quoter above.

Apologies if you somehow inferred otherwise.

How the bloody hell did you know it was £500.....??  Right it kicks off at £1500...I better get 2 hair shirts eh?  :-\"

Rule 1 is a coverall statement. Rule 7 isn't. 

As there are examples of shoddy behaviour, so too are there acts of enormous class, this forum is not different. My only regret is that there is no ignore button on this forum.

Click the username of the person you want to ignore.

That should open their activity page / wall.

Towards the top right of that screen is a button titled "ignore".
