Can I just say... Reverb.com is the best internet thing I've found in a long time. I have a bunch of old and moldering guitar junk that I don't use, but which strangers on the internet are happy to buy! And Reverb makes it all so damned easy: take some pix, describe it and pick a price. If someone buys it, you print the label and stuff your stuff in the mail. Done.
And if my old vibrato pedal would just sell, I'd have enough cash saved up up to buy that new vibrato/phase pedal I've been lusting after.
My brother bought a fuzz pedal from J. Mascis…
did he know it was J when he bought it?
Yeah, J had/has a special store set up. Had some pretty sweet stuff in there…
ah yeah.
i just discovered Tony Levin’s Reverb shop. https://reverb.com/shop/officialtonylevin
for just $2.4K (88% off original price!) i could have the phaser he used on:
My reprobate brother-in-law left a whole bunch of musical junk (true junk, mostly) in his mother’s basement when he moved to Mexico. My wife was going through his stuff and trying to determine what could be salvaged and sold and hello! What’s this? In among the garbage 90’s pedals was a block letter MXR Phase 90, beat to hell and probably from the late ’70s. What a score! It sounds incredible.
if i found one of those, i’d have to buy one of those EVH-striped strats to go along with it.
Hah!
