No I didn't. Stingy bastards... :mrgreen: We'll see this time. What's a fair price i svenska riksdaler? Mint cond, 2014, never played outside the cave. Should I start with 9k? Regarding the Kemper; I really, and I mean really, love the toaster look! I suppose you could get the rack version if you disagree... :) Känner du grabbarna i Två Blyga Läppar? En kille jag känner, eller rättare sagt en av mina bästa vänners son, ska börja lira keyboard med dem.

I couldn't agree more. Great to see there is no Swedish equivalent of ' stingy bastards' :)

Price wise it's really hard to put your finger on it these days... I just moved 2 monitors for double what I could of 3 months ago??!!... and other gear I'm still sitting with?!

We opened for them last year so no I don't know them but I had a good look at their gear....especially the toaster (you called it that first :lol:)...and the gigantic bass rig they had, Orange of course 8)!

My usual reason for selling a piece of gear. ... is because I want something else and cannot afford it. I do not have the luxury of keeping every piece of gear... I do have my max amount of guitars... I have 5 ....... I know this might sound weird. But I do not even like having more than that. I start to feel overwelmed because ... I like to upgrade them . I like to try different pickups , change hardware around.. etc. If I were to have more than 5 , I start feeling overwelmed as each might have a project in mind, that I cannot get to right away.


So Anyhow, I feel like if you need to sell for gain of something else. Go for it, If you do not need to , hang on to them until you do .. I would keep the Orange though.

I have owned my Orange since 2006 and am now at a point that I want to sell it. The reason? No room, much larger amp than I need, want to buy a smaller guitar amp and put a little cash in my pocket.

It has been forever since I have sold any gear and I am wondering, in 2017 what are the best avenues to do so? Would it be Craigslist? Reverb.com? I do not want to ship this beast as it is a head and two cabinets. Unless of course there is an EASY way to ship (for example, I drive the gear someplace and they box it/ship it etc.). I want to avoid taking it to a guitar shop for trade as I fear I will lose my butt on it.

Thanks for any input and help here.

... To bad you aren't getting rid of the open back.... I could of helped you there :lol:
seriously.
looks like an over-engineered toaster.
