Many pieces of my collection of instruments, amplifiers, pedals and more that I’ve enjoyed over the years are now being offered for sale. I’ll continue to list more as I can so do check back often. Contact me directly for pricing IF it’s not listed as the market always fluctuates, BUT I will always strive to provide both fair and often below-market pricing for these pieces. It’s time to let others enjoy them and I’ll note where there’s special provenance or history of use behind them. Contact me directly at [email protected] to discuss. Enjoy the list and photos!
