Mine was a 1981-82 JCM 800 2x12 combo (Model 4104). 50 watt bought it 24 years ago, had it for a few years, and then sold it but really regretted it. Fast forward 9 years later, and I went to True Tone Music in Santa Monica, CA on a significant birthday (one that ends in a zero, LOL) and there it was in the used amp section. Bought it on the spot, and I've had it back now for 13 years, and right before Covid, I took it to Revamp Amps on Melrose Blvd, and Colleen from Fazio Electrics was working there at the time, and Colleen and Andy restored the circuit to stock. I'm replacing my baffle board, since it's all cracked and flimsy, and maybe later I'll recover the cab in red tolex since it looks a bit beat. Love your channel! Take care!

I regretted selling my 2013 Splawn Quick Rod, In 2021 I had Scott build me a new amp with all the features available. I think it's the best amp made. I have the Diezel Vh4, Soldano SLO , Bognar Helios, and a crap load of other amps but the Splawn gets played the most. I also have a Super Sport and a Seafoam Green Super Strat that Scott built for me and they are also up there with my favorite pieces of gear. Anytime I am traveling through North Carolina and have time to stop in and see Scott he is always gracious enough to spend a little time talking to me even though he is always so busy. He is the nicest guy you could meet and builds the best amps.

That Splawn in the first part reminds me of ‘38 Special “Hold on Loosely”.

The first tube amp I ever bought was a Peavey 3120. GC was having a special where they threw in a free 4x12 cabinet. 120 watts was way too much for me back then, and still is to this day, but I do miss that amp. All three channels had great tones.

A 1981 silverburst les paul custom. So cool, had a factory kahler trem with built in string winders.

I sold my Marshall YJM. I was an amazing amp that sounded SOOOOO good, but was kind of impractical due to the size and weight. I never gigged it because it was such a beast to move around so I played it at home. I had a bunch of other Marshalls, so when they went up in value, I decided to cash in and sold it for double what I got if for new. But it was the ULTIMATE Plexi....built-in attenuator, built-in overdrive pedal circuit, etc. Now they are super-expensive and rarely come up for sale used. Maybe I can get another one someday.......

Peavey 3120 head. Absolute monster but with a master volume that gave great tone at all levels. Really miss it

but i mean, i sold a squier strat that i bought for $80 at a pawn shop and didnt think twice till later, after becoming a better player and knowing whit i like and dont like in a guitar. man, that neck- it was that perfect “played in” feeling you only get on vintage guitars. and this was a pos squier bullet strat! man i miss that neck.

Although im deep down the rabbit hole of high-gain guitar gear these days, i actually grew up a drummer, and my kit back in the 90's was a jet black Remo Quadura set with double "cannon" bass drums and I sold it for a rediculous price even for back then... Its a hard kit to get today and i absolutely loved that kit... I know its not guitar related, but hey... (Im in the collection stage of my guitar gear, tough to sell anything quite yet)

Sounds awesome! It's got great note definition while still sounding heavy.

1972 marshall jmp is.the one that got away. ALSO and early 90s soldano hot rod 50 with kt 66s, also a very early splawn quick rod

That amp is great. You can hear every note with superb clarity.

Mine was a Hartke GT100 hybrid guitar amp. The fender-esque clean and marshalloid crunch channels with tons of headroom made it one of the BEST pedal platform amps ever, IMO. I happened upon the one I traded to my buddy on GC NYC's used gear (mine had drywall mud and white paint from wall repairs my dad made at my parents' house in FL as a teen following some moisture damage hurricanes, and I know for a fact my buddy moved to New York) and have been sad that I was unable to buy it back as I didn't have the cash on hand. Also, the amp I traded it for broke due to user error, the famous Ibanez solid state head featured on an episode of Glenn Fricker's channel. I'd love to have either amp again, tbh.

Mine was an original DSL50 that I had modded quite a bit to tighten up the crunch, eliminate channel switching pop, and roll off some weird low mid build up

I sold a Mike Shannon built RR1 with a custom hot rod flame paint job and unfinished neck. It was a dream to play and I loved it. This is where the regret thing gets tricky though, 'cause I sold it to fund the purchase of a JH-1, which I love even more and has quadrupled in value since. So, I do regret no longer having that unique RR1, but I don't regret the decision. Ideally, I'd love to have both Lol.

Mine was a 5150 II with Cab. Now I have a Single Rec and love it. I do wish I still had the 5150 as well

Sounds great! Funny enough, I tend to play Feathers as well when demoing juicy hot-rodded Marshall style amps as well. Cheers! 🤘🙂

3 Amps...Tech 21 Trademark 60, Tech 21 Trademark 300 2x12, Peavey Teal Stripe Renown but the biggest loss is my 1985 Mesa Boogie Mark III SimulClass w/EQ. Small head version that absolutely kicked everything else's butt. Traded it to a music store for a ?????? ?????? ??????? 2x12 which I hated and when I want to trade back the amp for my Mark III, it was gone...sold that very day I traded. Still have the Mesa Metal Grill 4x12 but so empty without the Mark III. LOVE YOUR CHANNEL...bless you and thank you.

I wish I still had my Marshall Valvestate 8100 that I bought when they were new

Mine was a kh-502 that had been upgraded and was in pristine condition. Got in a tight space with money when I was younger and had to let it go for much less than it was worth. Really miss that one.

Great video! I love the amazing tones that Splawn offers. The amp I wish hadn’t had to let go was. Mesa Boogie Mark iii Purple Stripe Coliseum w/Matching 2x12 vert cab. I found out that Kirk Hammet got it which made me feel better for about 75 seconds 😂

Yes, I had the Ampeg VH140C in the early 90's and got rid of it!

My first electric guitar. A '97 Ibanez RG270 in a green color w/chrome hardware.

I have a very rare Rhino YJM Blackstar head that I'll never get rid of. It sounds just like Yngwie when you slam the front end with an overdrive. I've only ever seen 1 for sale and I jumped on it immediately. Guy was selling it locally for $250. It needed some TLC but nothing major. Amazing head if you ever see one get it.

I briefly had a vintage Ibanez Bi-Mode Chorus that i regret selling because i feel like I didn’t take enough time to really understand that pedal. I shot it out against my MXR Analog Chorus and liked the MXR better at the time. Decided i only needed one chorus and sold the Ibanez but now i’d love to have that pedal again to re-explore it

For me, it would be either a 300 watt Ashdown tube bass head that I had used as a power amp for my AMT preamps that I had to sell to afford a damage deposit on a new apartment OR a Hovercraft Falcon + with 6550 tubes

I really liked it on that video way back. Glad you found another!

I actually had 2, and both times regretted it, but money was needed. It was a Bogner Brixton 12 watt combo, smal but really packed a punch, no real clean tones at all, but you don't get a Bogner for the cleans. Good crunch though, awesome high gain.

There’s only one Amp I regret not buying. It was the VHT classic lead 100 with the graphic EQ. It was still to this day the best modern 80s tone I’ve ever played and heard.

I miss my JCM2000 that I traded off for a Sunn 300T bass amp and it was an awesome bass amp but it worked about 1 out of every 10 times. The JCM2000 was an early one and it was just awesome. I think it had upgraded transformers. Someone in North Carolina got a real ripper about 7 years ago.

My first amp I bought when I was 16, was a crate Crate BV60 blue tolex. I had a randall 4x12 cab loaded with g12t-75. A situation led me to sell them both. I could of stuffed the head in a closet and just sold the cab. I just didn't enjoy either at the time, and the situation I was in, so it went. That was my regret for not thinking of the closet situation even if I sold the cab I could of got something different later on.. I still check marketplaces and local stores to see if its still around. That'll be my impulse purchase one day. It had a white mark on top when I bought it back in 2006, I'm sure it'll still be there.

Mine was a coffee burst Reverend Sensei RA. I loved that guitar so much - I only just found the guitar which gave me the same amount of joy a few weeks ago in my new Les Paul, but I would kill to find another coffee burst reverend sensei RA

only piece of gear regret getting rid of is a Black LTD Eclipse I swapped a Seymour Duncan Blackout AHB-3 set into, traided it for some tattoo work. reget it for sure, loved that guitar

1984 gibson sg that had been re-painted a candy apple red color with a weird wrap around bridge. Had intonation issues especially on the g-string and the local techs couldn't find a bridge that would fit, very odd guitar. Great sound, I was moving and sold it. Huge mistake.

Three pieces of gear... an early 2000's Gobson Sg Special in Blue-teal flip flop, a 2×10 Mesa Dual Rectifier Blue Angel and a PRS SE Singlecut 245 in a gold finish... 😩 I had a stretch when I was unemployed and another situation when I needed the funds to move to a new area, so it sucks, but not the end of the world.

I had a 1996 Charvel San Dimas III when I was in high school. It had a flame maple top with a tobacco burst finish and to this day(I’m 36) I have never even seen a picture of one exactly like it. I’ve seen a quilt top with a Floyd but never a flame top with a Wilkinson like mine. The crazy thing is it came up for sale back in 2010,I bought it then sold it again a year later to buy an amp head. I’ll most likely never see it or another one like it again 😭

I had an EVH Stealth 100. It was a hand numbered pre production I got in a trade from a Fender employee. Had the Frankenstein colors on the faceplate. I traded it for a VHT Pittbull and that was a major mistake. A month later, I hit up the guy I made the trade with to see if he’d be willing to trade back, and he said he would have if he hadn’t sold it off already

Same story for me My first Marshall Halfstack I got at 17. Wasn't my 87 Fender strat that got messed up in some teenage year drama confusion. Nope was my first marshall stack for me. Def :)

Ampeg VH 150, have missed that head since the day I sold it. Best solid state amp I've ever play through, and could get any sound out of it.

I really miss selling my Diezel Herbert MKII back in 2013! It was in white and made especially for me. Sounded awesome as hell! I also really missed my sold Earforce Two head. Also in white and made especially for me! But! I was able to track this exact amp down about six years later and bought it back and it was even better than I remember. Love it to this day and will definitely never sell it again! 🔥

The one that got away: 1989 or 1990 Charvel Model 3B bass in pearl white. That was a great bass but I had decided I wanted a Fender American Jazz Bass and since I was only working part time and still in college I needed to get something out of the old bass before I bought a new one. I really regret that.

Hey man,,i understand why you hunt that amp back,,killer tone,love the bottom end and the higher tone as well,,i had a quickrod 100 once,should have kept it,,,the one for me that got away is a ‘73 marshall Superbass in mint condition.traded it for an ‘82 Gibson custom lespaul Tim Shaw,,it was a great guitar bit ended up selling it not long after and also a 2013 gibson lespaul std i traded for a 2022 lespaul std 60’s,,i should have kept that ‘13 std,,i didn’t like the feel of that faded satin honeyburst colour neck, anyway they come and go right,,love your gear review videos etc,,totally love hour sense of humour as well,peace🤟

It was this Kiesel Aries. A white one with fishman fluences and original Floyd rose. That thing was awesome.

I try to keep on to as many stuff as possible. I regret selling Fenix STL guitar (Fenix used ot make Squier instruments in the 90s) with scalloped frets from the 12th or 15th fret on, the neck felt absolutely amazing, and it had a DiMarzio Super Distortion which just sounded MEAN! I am rather guilty of buying too cheap and therefore needing to buy twice. I have 2x Bugera 6262, 1x Bugera 333 and 1x Bugera 1990. The 6262 I modded the resonance mod and not really missing anything sonically between the original (had massive possibility to compare the 6262 vs. the 5150 II, basically zero difference), but still need the OG 5150 II or 6505 II at some point in my life. The 333XL randomly changes channels because of an issue on the DSP Board, and the 1990 since a few days is completely silent. I have, during the years, came to reckon that quality does have it's price. The good thing is that modding the amps does not hurt from a financial point of view.

The Roland JC 120h is the one I wish I kept and an old Marshall lead 12 mini stack I had acquired back in the nineties is one of my first good amps had a miniature head and 2 10 inch speakers in their own separate speaker cabinets

I usually don’t do combos but I had an archon mki 25 combo that sounded really good. Unusual tolex and grill cloth job but a really handsome amp. I traded it away for some reason. Tried a mkii archon head and loved it but the effects loop was unbearably noisy and PRS wanted to dick me around on the warranty. Anyway a year goes by and my old combo comes back to my local shop. I bought it immediately. The reason I regretted trading it so much though was because when my dog passed away I had just gotten that amp and ended up writing a song about him using that amp just after I had to put him down, so I associated that amp in particular with him. Always hated myself for getting rid of it after that. So I’m really glad I have it again.

I had a Mojotone JCM800 kit that I modified and really loved. Sadly, I sold the amp to fund another. However, I saw that exact amp back up for sale from the fella that bought it from me. He offered me a deal, but I couldn't take it. The amp in question is on my youtube channel.

Love that Splawn + Cab combo. SWeeeeet !

My only real gear regret was selling my Engl Ritchie Blackmore head and cabs. Bought new in 2002, sold in 2012. In truth, I didn't need a 100W head and two cabs any more, and it was taking up a crap load of space in my small apartment. An opportunity came up to sell it, and on the spur of the moment I accepted. I probably wouldn't have used it ever again, but it was an awesome bit of kit, and my golden rule is usually not to sell anything truly awesome. Using a couple of UK 30W Orange heads at the moment, and super happy. Probably more my sound to be honest, but I do still wish I had that Engl.

This right here needs to be an amp sim immediately!!!! Yeah I’ve gotten rid of tons of gear over the years and I regret basically all of it. I’ve only made one solid upgrade that I eventually lost anyway. I traded a line 6/bogner for a krankenstien+. I made sure the guy knew what he was doing. He was adamant he wanted my amp because it had reverb. So I did the trade. But I had to sell it to make a truck note. I also had to sell a Schecter ATX to make a truck payment. Ugh. That was a rough patch. I’ve lost a pair cool custom 4x12’s. I actually gave them back to the guy I bought them from. He basically sold them to me for spare change so when they got to be in the way, I just gave them back to him. I’ve lost guitars along the way that I have no idea where they actually ended up. Jackson Kelly poof gone. I had a carvin guitar that I have no recollection of getting rid of. I had a carvin p.a. That was somehow “acquired” permanently from me and then given to a bar. Still not sure how I was Jedi’d out of that. Like the guy said he didn’t wanna jam with my band anymore and then wouldn’t let me come get my stuff. I also had to get rid of some vintage pa stuff from the 60’s due to its size. I lost basically my whole studio (I mean I lost my house entirely) in a hurricane. 3 trees through my house. Took out everything. Found one of my monitors down in the woods by the swamp. It still worked. lol I had a Marshall valvestate when I was a kid that I wish I kept. I really could keep going. There’s more guitars. There’s more amps. More cabs. Mixers. Mics. I’ve gone through a ton of stuff. I wish I still had it all.

Yeah I just had to part with my multiwatt dual rec to get an apartment. health issues have me out of work so just let go a piece of gear id been wanting for a long time.

Man so many pieces of gear over the years I regret letting go. Usually it’s stuff I had to sell because I was just broke when I was younger and some emergency would come up and the guitar gear was all I had worth anything. Had a Jackson COW 7 that I absolutely loved but it had to go because of car trouble. Those sell for stupid money now so I’m just not willing pay for another one. At the same time I had a VHT Pittbull UL half stack with a fatbottom cab. Those also had to go for same car problems. Possibly one of my favorite guitar rigs I’ve ever owned but probably never own another since they have also gotten crazy expensive. Some less depressing stuff is I sold my old mesa Mark IV to fund a mountain bike and immediately regretted it. I ended up buying another one for a great price back before those skyrocketed and it’s never leaving my collection. I had an Ibanez S7420bp which was my first 7 string and I sold it like an idiot. I’d accepted I’d probably never own another one because of course they’ve also skyrocketed in price and I refuse to pay the overly inflated current market prices but a few weeks ago I found one on FB market in amazing shape and the seller was super cool and worked with me to ship it and it’s even better than my original. So some kinda lame losses but a few happy endings.

A custom Ibanez I built and did a purple,black and white swirl paint job on.

I got rid of a Peavey XXX 13 years ago. It was during the recession, my kid wanted an Xbox for Xmas, and the amp went. I just got that amp back a couple of weeks ago. The kid graduates college in a month and can afford his own amps! (and Xbox's) All is well in the universe! :) BTW: I just made a pair of 2/12 cabs with redbacks and creamback neos. Best speaker sound I've ever had!

I have a few for sure, but the top of the list has to be a 90s Reissue Orange Overdrive (Or-120). It’s just something you don’t see everyday.

I regret selling my '73 Silverface Vibrolux reverb years ago... Needed the $ for other gear and never found one again locally for a reasonable price.

Hamer Californian Elite hologram paint job with reverse headstock. Bought it in 2010 for 475 dollars but needed the cash and sold it for 1400

Electra Westone Phoenix got it for $60 sold it for like $300 hsh configuration with all kinds of tonal options several push pull knobs

Peavey Vandenburg guitar!! I had the red 80's version back in the day. I only sold it because I moved to a very small town in Oregon and at the time did not know where to take it to get a fret job done, soo I sold it. That is the gtr I regret selling. Now I will be payn $3000 to get it back. The new version. Now I have 2 wait til mid July 2024

2007 Esp Eclipse II in amber cherry sunburst... sold it just before prices on ESPs went bonkers.

Peavey vtm 60, and also crate. Vintage Club 6112 , both like a marshal but better. And USA built.

2000s Gibson LP studio (alpine white)... and I'm not the only one who regrets selling one. Lukkley people put them up for sale all the time.

I have downsized a lot of my collection in the last couple years. I have thankfully not regretted any I moved on. I'd rather see them go to a new home where they're used and loved. I'm at a point now where the things to downsize would be unique in tone/configuration, and probably too expensive to replace in today's prices. I'm aware of evolving tastes and coming back around to some gear we used to play more so I'm holding onto a couple things right now even if they don't get much play time

ironically - the piece of gear that got away was also a Splawn. A Splawn Pro-stock from 2008. It was gnarly and I loved it. Shouldnt of let it go, but it was ugly as hell. Purple and tan. Man did that sound good.

I don’t regret getting rid of any amps, but guitars yes. 2000 Gibson Les Paul standard and a fender esquire with a scorpion inlay.

A candy apple red BC Rich Warlock, reverse headstock and gold hardware, diamond inlays. This was before I knew how to get a decent sound by boosting the input, so I was never happy with how it sounded. Still regret letting that thing go.

My silly gear story is selling off a TCE dark matter distortion pedal, a $40 distortion. I love it for bass reamps and bass tone so much, I have no idea why I ever sold it. I bought it again and it’s a staple of my bass reamps now

I got 2, the first one was an ltd fx 260sm that i had for about 7 years but just recently sold in the last year and the other was an mh100qmnt in reindeer blue. Both were sold for car repairs and both i regret selling more than the ec1000s i had. They felt great to play, sounded and looked amazing, and i can never find fx260sm's for sale anymore. The reindeer blue mh100qmnt ive seen a few times, but its like 400+ and with a kid now an impulse buy like that just isnt reasonable

I miss the Ampeg VL 1001 single channel amp head. Was like a hot rodded JCM 800. Wish I had never sold it.

There's so many amps. There's two in particular. One was a dual rectifier rack mount. Never going to be able to touch that again financially. The other was a crate stealth that I didn't want to sell but I needed money. I had planned on keeping that amp and selling a rectifier ahead at the time. A revision f. Since the rectifier was not selling, I sold the crate stealth when I got the chance. The day I shipped the crate stealth the rectifier sold on eBay😢

“Upon this cab” I think is what you were looking for Kyle lol… yea I here you on selling gear. I’m caught up atm just having to save up because I am not comfortable trading selling anything I own atm for something different. Definitely a nice sound amp though. I don’t know if it’s the mic you are using or what but for my personal taste I would probably throw an eq in the loop of it. That said I def see the appeal. Sounds really good.

My Dunable USA R2 in Vintage Silverburst, such a killer guitar. Still hurts…

With your love of modded Marshall style amps.m, Les Paul’s and sd1. I’m surprised that you’ve never had one with EMGs and gone for a zakk wylde tone

My Line 6 Helix and my early 00s Mesa Oversized 4x12 😢 helped me purchase a much needed new vehicle. The thing that sucks the most is that it kinda killed my interest in playing guitar. Still trying to find that spark again.

Had one of the early models of the J Mascis Jazzmasters before they stopped using rosewood for the fretboard. Since getting rid of it I’ve played several others trying to replace it and none of them play like this one did.

Mine was an original Randall Warhead not because it was amazing sounding. More for sentimental value.

Honestly I wish I still had my blue voodoo 120 and my ibanez rg2ex1 it was a great sounding combination

Piece of gear I regret selling: random baritone scale agile seven string, it wasn’t anything amazing but I sold it to help a friend pay for new tires after a bad car crash and I’d used it on a couple albums and it feels weird to not have the guitar I’d used for those albums. Sold two Ibanez 8strings I never could jell with, don’t really miss em but I didn’t really need to sell them either. Piece of gear I wish I’d kept: my first real band before I played guitar my dad rented the guitarist of my band one of those Kerry king jcm800s and it was so fucking good. I wish I’d had the foresight to buy it for myself but I never envisioned myself playing guitar in bands back then.

Kyle, I have a 2007 QR100.. (one of the first of the 4 button footswitch era) just love it.. it can be dark depending upon the guitar and cab.. but it was an original KT77 amp.. blew some tubes and had EL-34B's put in.. i miss the KT77 to be honest.. not sure but they had some sizzle... not so smooth.. What tubes are in this Splawn Comp? I may go back to KT-77's..??

My long lost joy is the Peavey 6505mh - that little beast!!

I didn’t let go of it, but I’ve got this Jackson rhoads guitar. It was my first own guitar and I played it to death. Sadly, I had no idea how to properly take care of a guitar back then as a teen and the fretboard cracked. Now it’s kinda impossible to get it in working condition again. The frets are nickel frets and they are worn down so much, you can’t find a fret that isn’t dead anymore and because of the crack in the fretboard there is no way to refret it. Now it’s only collecting dust, but I wouldn’t ever have the heart to throw it away

Mine was esp m2 custom neck through 😢. I have others Esp and an original but, I don't know, that was the one

I had a 2001 Gibson SG Special silver that I had to sell for financial reasons and I'm looking for one ever since haha I loved the look and how well it played!

one piece of gear I would never sell is my OG Carvin Legacy VL100 with original green back 25's that amp/cab combo is the shit, I like it more than 5150's or mesa's used to work in a music store and tried everything they had come through for years and this combo is just magic, eats pedals like a champion, paired it with a 4 x12 with rocket 50's for that doomy low end and Heaven all Mighty it's best sounding set up I've ever heard!

It was a 2019 R9 60th anniversary pretty plain burst top. Sold to fund another guitar. I’ve purchased many Les Paul’s (even Murph lab ones) since and still none were as good.

Mine was a peavey vtm60 that I bought for $300 that was in perfect condition which was rare. I bought it because someone in an online chat room was saying it was a sleeper amp. Now everyone knows about them and they cost at least $900 bucks

I bought a Peavey Valve King II 100w head brand new for like $450. I played it. Actually loved it. and I sold it about a couple years after I sold it to purchase a Dual Rectifier because I always wanted one. And yes ... as strange as it sounds ... I regret selling it. The Dual Rectifier was not the God Tier tone I thought it was in my head not knowing about what makes tone like I do today. That Valve King was like having a 5150, a Fender Deluxe, and a Marshallish breakup tone all in one amp.

For me, it was my Jackson WRX in natural. Not overly expensive, but god damn that finish is so hard to find for me in Canada here. And when I do, the guitar is being listed for significantly more. One day I will re-acquire that beast. In other news. I also sold my Hughes & Kettner Grandmeister 36 about 4 years ago. Regretted that, but found a Deluxe 40 for an insane deal recently. $750CAD!

Regret selling my left handed Gibson Lea Paul 70’s Tribute in wine red. It was ugly but damn did it have the tone and resonate perfectly. It came stock with Dirty Fingers. I miss it still.

Yes: A Sunn Concert Lead, a 200 watt version of the Beta Lead that I found for $180-ish. Then a couple of years later, I bought a first run Fender Boxer Tele for $420. I should've at least waited to sell those till now, if I knew I wasn't keeping them. With that said, I wish I had them both to play on now.

My regret- Trading in my ADA MP-2/Peavey Classic 60-60 rack setup. I traded in the ADA, it's foot controller, and an ART rack delay unit for a Boss GT-8. I SHOULD have just ditched the ART because that was the weak link in the chain that didn't work properly. I could've just gotten a Boss Delay or Reverb pedal instead and threw it in the ADA's loop.

The amp I regret selling is a Diezel Li’l Fokker. I sold it before I ever owned or tried an overdrive pedal. I really wish I could try that amp with an overdrive. Sold it for a down payment on a motorcycle.

Sold my ESP SV Standard yeaaaars ago and regretted it ever since. Last year i managed to buy one back in immaculate condition!

Mine was a Mesa Coliseum power amp. Paired it up with two oversized Mesa 4 x 12 with ev speakers in it. Way more power than I ever needed I feel like I thought I was going to play Wembley or something put the tone was killer and the power amp with super rare

I bought a Wine Red Gibson Les Paul Classic Custom in 2012. It was the first and only new Gibson I've ever owned ($1800 new). It was one of the models Gibson did with the baked maple fretboards when they couldn't use ebony. That guitar was basically a weight relieved Les Paul Custom (even with a diamond inlay which was odd for a Classic Custom) with no back binding and a slimmer neck 🥹 After I sold it I ALMOST bought another one but then they discontinued them. Probably my biggest gear selling regret. That along with a Wechter acoustic and electric guitar I won from Sweetwater. Both guitars were valued at over $1,000. The acoustic sounded incredible (better than any acoustic I'd ever played) with a spruce top, rosewood back and sides, etc but I needed money so I STUPIDLY traded it into Guitar Center 😭 They'd never seen one of them so I only got like $300 for it. And the electric had both a piezo and push/pinch switches on the pickup rings to let you choose what pickup configuration you wanted (in phase, out of phase, single coil selections, etc). If I could get those three guitars back, I would. As far as an amp, probably just my very first amp I ever owned. A Marshall VS100 back in 2003 or 2004. At the time I was a big Static-X fan but I had no idea until after I sold the amp that the amp was heavily used on their earlier albums. I'll likely buy another one of those in the future. Great sounding amp.

A Washburn Dime Stealth I sold in '06... to this day it was the best guitar I've ever played.

For me, it was a JCM800ZW with matching cab. Had to sell it to pay for a lawyer for a bunch of traffic tickets I got while acting a fool on a street bike when I was young and stupid.

A Hamer USA Standard burst with split inlay bound with a AAAAA top! Sold for a song. See them now going for over $10k! Could slap myself!

I regret selling my Mesa Rectifier Rev G from 1995. It sounded great. And the best thing about it was that I only paid 1000 bucks for it when I got it…

Man, I sold my Ibanez s520 that I installed active emgs in. It played great and sounded great. The zr trem is so smooth and stable. They are worth more that what I got for it.
