1 Guitar, 1 Amp, 1 Pedal - you should never have sold...

[Mr Grumpy]

...the title says it all.

Here's a guitar I stupidly sold. It's a 2018. It was the best playing and best sounding guitar I've ever touched. I should never have sold it:


Here's a little Randall RD1 - brilliant home practice amp, as long as you don't want clean. It has amazing crunch and OD sounds (and more if you want...) I should never have sold it:


Here's a pedal that I should never have sold. It was a great OD, aswellas Fuzz machine:




Your turn!

I’m a poor one to ask. Still have every guitar I’ve ever purchased..... dating back to 1973. But that only adds up to six guitars and a bass. Still got the only amp I purchased. A Traynor YGM3 I got in 1974. Have unloaded a few pedals and miss them so bad, not sure I can remember what they were.

That's fantastic - I wish I were you! Keeping gear is the right way to go, imho.

(&, I wish you were me, had my wife, and had made all the mistakes I've made... ).

I regret selling my Feneder Telecaster AVri 64 2012.

Blimey O'Reiley, that is one of my dream guitars (and quite close to the guitar I just bought - although I got a MIJ version so it cost half the price).

And my Vox Pathinder 15r

Meh... I had a Pathfinder 10 - never loved it. My home amp is a Cornell 5 Traveller which is VOX breething amp; nice.

Newer sold any pedals sooooo........

Very sensible.

You can´t compare a Pathfinder 10 to a 15r, different amps, I hate the Pathfinder 10 and love the 15r

Fair enough - the 10 was average (crap). I've never heard the 15 - so, you, Sir, have the high ground.

At least mine was non-pro EU...

Strange statement, Mr Grumpy... Perhaps this is some of that British humor that creeps over my head... .

Anyways, if there is one amp I regret selling, it is the 1980(?) Fender 75 I sold in the mid 90s.

Never regretted any of the guitars or pedals that i sold. All of them were nice to fantastic, too!

If I dwell on all the mistakes I've made in the past, and a lot of them have been embarrassingly stupid, I could sit here in my Lazy-Boy for about 10 years and rot to death. No thank you...

Sysco, that is why, no - that is one of the many reasons why - I love/respect you... You're a better man than I with guitar in hand. I praise you, Sir.

(British "humour" is always an issue; almost always a negative one...)

I regret selling everything lol but the one that stands out the most is a 96 Peavey 5150 120w Signature head. I got it for about $300 and sold it for $275 to a "friend" that ended up pawning it before i could ever buy it back. Only sold it to him in the first place because he cried about wanting a tube head and not having any money.

Hate myself for that

 

[Mr Grumpy]

Hate myself for that

Don't hate yourself - hate that deceiving lilly-livered bastard that pretended to be your friend to abuse you of that amazing amp!

In 1968 I could have bought a Unvibe pedal at Lafayette Electronics for $75.
I should have bought that pedal, I wanted that pedal.
Does that count? That was so stupid, it was right there for $75 brand new.

I bought a 1957 LP Jr. for $90, and I shouldn't have sold it.



I had an Operadio, and I sold it to Glen. I shouldn't have sold that either.
That was the coolest amp on earth.

 

[Ghostman]

Guitar: My 1996 Washburn MG-92 - Mahogany body
Amp: Kustom Coupe '36 - It had one sweet spot, but what a glorious sweet spot it was
Pedal: a stretch for definition, but Peavey Tube-fex processor. I miss that more than any other gear.
