15 years ago I was at a yard sale and in the back of the garage was a covered-up guitar amp. A largish one. A Vox Buckingham.
So I asked the lady how much she wanted for the amp. She said "Oh, is that what that is? Mmm, how about twenty?"
"Dollars?" I asked.
I took it home. I cleaned it up. I messed with it and got nothing but static.
Then I sold it to a collector for $400.
I'd like to have saved the cabinet, with those nice Goldbacks in it, but back then I was more in need of money than project amps.
That was a good find.:thmbsp:
