Lost job gear purge.

[Ascension]

Long story local political issue took stand and a group went after my boss to get to me. We parted ways as friends because this is my fight not his no hard feeling on my end towards him but left a sudden hole in my finances right here at the end of the year and need to generate some $$.
Will get photos up as I can and will be posting a number of items that I needed to get rid of anyway as they are not being used.
For now have
1999 Mex Strat SOLD
Mutt Tele SOLD
Eden Analog Cold Compress Compressor. This is the actual NAMM show prototype that started it at the 2006 Dallas Guitar Show show. Owner is a personal friend and I bought the proto directly from Chris. The company folded after his Brother suddenly passed a couple years ago.
From their old site
EDEN ANALOG COLD COMPRESS.

Introduced at the 2006 Dallas Guitar Show. The Cold Compress compressor/sustainer is a modern adaptation of a vintage favorite with the compression of yesterday and the flavors of today. The Cold Compress performs well as a subtle background effect/boost or as an in your face compressor with that great squeezed note bloom we all love. Neutral, natural, and transparent in tone. A true "players" pedal.
$150 shipped and PP in the lower 48
Boss RV-2 nice shape MIJ one knob missing works well. $80 Shipped in the lower 48.
MIC Fender Modern Player full pickup set Tele neck Strat middle Bucker bridge $30 shipped for the set.
GFS Pro 24 52 Tele neck 6.6K is standard wind NOT RW/RP. Dropped it in found out it was a standard wind so would not hum cancel with the bridge Tele and pulled it right back out. Good sounding pickup just not what I needed. Mint uncut leads in box $30 shipped.

More to come.

Re: Lost job gear purge.

No regrets did what i felt I had to because of things I have been involved with for many years this is not the place to discuss it though. Will be better off in the long run because while I loved working in the Pawn Shop the money stank + it kept me from doing a lot of things I wanted to do. I was comfortable but not where i needed to be this just forced the issue on making some changes. My guitar playing for one stinks as I never had time to practice or just play for the pleasure of it never had time to write ect. Had a pretty good reserve in the bank should get unemployment in the short term have options and this gives me a little time to reflect and figure out the next step. Have Christmas music stuff on the plate for Church to work on in the short term and musical chops to get back so---.
Thanks for the response and support guys will remember!

Good riddance to that gig anyway, that weirdo with the knife incident would have made me walk. Hope you land on your feet in a good place.

That particular shop stayed open until 11 PM on Friday and Saturday nights. Had been working 9 to 6 for 5 or 6 months in a particular shop but for the last few months had been out on the circuit again due to a long time employee needing a soft easy place to work after an injury at his other job. HATED that and also hated working nights at the one crazy area shop. Carried a 10mm there with a load that would stop with a center mass hit even one wearing a vest [might not penetrate the vest but would put them down and at the least knock the wind out if not break a couple ribs!]. I sure won't miss that place at all!!
Have a Real Estate license that is current but inactive and was a Realtor for many years may reactivate and find a Broker. Was involved in local politics here and that is what killed my Real Estate as was fighting more for my community than I needed to be and had a major conflict of interest. Don't have the elected position any more I had for 13 years so would likely do pretty well if I did dive back in Real Estate within a few months. It's getting through those few months that I have to plan for if I do this. Will make a decision after the 1st of the year on that part.
Guys thanks for the posts and encouragement means a lot.
