Well, I believe I got a good deal...

Barbarianbrute got me thinking a lot about the Genz-Benz El diablo... Added to the fact that I've been wanting to replace my JCM 800 4210 for something with more gain.

Found this yesterday night:http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...6192&_trksid=p3907.m32&_trkparms=tab=Watching

They sell for $1450 + taxes new here... this is much better (especially since our dollar's reaching record levels compared to $US...). To me right now, this is a steal.

The best part is, for that price, I don't even have to sell the JCM, I can keep both as I calculated everything as if I were to buy the Genz new at a local shop. Even with selling the JCM, I would've had to shell out ~$900. So now I get this thing for close to $600 (including shipping and duty fees)...pretty cool IMO.

very awesome, indeed. my budget restricts me to small class a amps like valve jr's and blackhearts so stuff like this always gets me jealous!

good luck, sir!

awesome deal dude. you're going to love this amp. every day i have it i like it more and more. seriously great deal though because these amps sound better than much more expensive amps.

oh man, once you get it cooking in 30 watt mode, you'll be blown away. put it in 60 watt mode and get it cookin, and you'll kill people. i love this amp. it's so well built, sounds so great, that i just can't believe you could get it that cheap. oh well, their loss and your gain. congratulations my friend. post us a clip soon.

Thanks guys... I actually bought another one 2 days ago for 750... the seller ended up having troubles with the shipping and he just refunded my money, which made me really happy since this one was wayyyy cheaper (290$ cheaper) and the guy charged me 35$ less for shipping... I honestly can't believe how cheap that one is... especially considering how expensive they are around here... can't wait to receive it!
