[Harp-L] Amps on E-bay

[SpaceCowboy123@xxxxxxx]

Many times buying an amp on E-bay is a crap shoot.  The seller may be sincere 
but if  a competent tech hasn't gone through the  amp or the seller is not 
really knowledgeable ... You don't know what you're  going to get. The speaker  
might be ready to go...the amp might not be what  the seller thinks it is... 
due to some previous "genius" owner -mod...  Or it just might be on the verge 
of needing an overhaul. For sure you  should check out the feedback and ask any 
questions that comes to mind... Then  again, if the seller is ignorant; you 
are back to the crap shoot scenario.  I'd say over  half the time; you can 
count on sending it to your tech. So  you can add anywhere from $ 50-75  right 
there. If you've never played  through a certain amp; then you're going by the 
opinions of others such as can  be found in places like: 
http://www.harmony-central.com/Guitar/Data/. Or other  harper's recommendations. There... depending 
on the applications...Opinions  vary. Some guys are like political pundits; 
they put their spin on it.  Some  leave out things and some are really honest. 
That's one thing I like  about E-bay seller: johhn a.k.a. Sonny Jr. He knows 
what he's talking about  and he doesn't jack around. Just 2 cents worth.. nothing 
 more.
