No, Sonny Jr amps do not hold their value. They depreciate like most
other amps. A visit to eBay will usually prove the point.
Gary "Sonny Jr" Onofrio used to make the claim on his website that his
amps held their value, but he changed it when it became apparent they
did not. They are certainly among the better harp amps out there and
rightly command rather high prices, but their dollar value generally
goes down over time.

You can buy another amp but one of these is like none other. The attention to detail is remarkable right down to the 7layer tint lacquer on the tweed that will only age beautifully with time. Also they hold there value so that's a plus. In short these amps are built like tanks and they're meant to be played hard and often if you choose. These amps are not meant to be stored away in some closet. Good luck.
