How many times this happen?

[Achilles]

Took pictures of the V:25 and already have the packaging out to get it on Reverb.
Ah, what the hell, let's give it one more spin before it goes.

Never play gear prior to selling

Never play gear prior to selling

I'm not going to tell you how many times I came close to ripping open the package the past couple of days!

 

[jellodog]

Happened to me with the Suhr Bella. And then again, when I asked for it back from the consignment store!

I never understood people who owned gear more than once until that moment. So I guess that experience helped me understand you guys...

[laxu]

That's when I try to to tell myself "I am selling this for a reason", and do the same every time I miss some gear I used to own.

 

[Achilles]

Played the Astro some more right after the V:25
Bye bye Boogie.
Anyone looking for a deal on a mint mini-Mark?

So I guess that experience helped me understand myself better...

Yup. It's the Gear equivalent of having lit sex one more time in a toxic relationship.

Don't do it.

No one listens.

This happens to me every time I think it is time to thin down the guitar collection. I get them out and make sure they are all clean and tuned up and in their best shape so they will impress when someone plays them to check them out. Then I play them and plug them in to make sure all is good and remember exactly why I bought and kept each one of them. They go back in the case and back in the closet to be played another day.

Here's a better option: just don't sell your Mark V:25.

It's an excellent amp.

 

[Baba]

I recently put my amp up for sale, with gigs coming, and no other amp, and then took it down.

It'll take years to reflect and understand. How I know?
