Re: Should I jump on this Crate?
because Musicians Friend was blowing them out ridiculously cheapo,one time. Its a Good amp ( see my joe walsh / Crate thread). But 120.00, you can get it for that, because even though its a great deal, thats about all its going to sell for .
I've had one kind of famous Crate amp on my local Craigslist for two years now.
I'm getting ready to list it on ebay- very poor resale value/ no interest locally .
That guy isn't going to sell the Crate for 180. Even try a hundred cash.

Re: Should I jump on this Crate?
I have the V18 - it is a good series of amp, but they benefit from very light modding (sometimes just tweaking the tube assignments, different reverb tank, etc.) and being very gentle with them. They are not built like tanks. But it's not a bad circuit. See if he'll let you audition it, and decide from there.

As a general rule of thumb, jumping on an amplifier regardless of its make, is not a good idea...

True.
It sold pretty quick. And yeah, the Tone Tubby is what got my attention.

I don't know, will it be able to hold your weight?
