  • just got a 5150 2x12 combo $450. good deal?

    So I was talking with my buddy who is a manager at the local G-center and I was looking for a practice amp since my triple rec. stack is at his house (hes also the drummer in my band) so he pointed me to a 5150 combo. I pluged a PRS cu24 in and it sounded absolutley amazing also used a jackson soloist sl2 it sounded good as well but the prs takes the cake IMO. anyways I picked up the amp for $450 out the door it was the absolute lowest he could sell it for. Good deal? decent deal? its def. overkill for a practice amp thats for sure, but sounds good.

    That's about the going rate.
    $450-$550 depending on condition.
    Mr. Patience.... ask for a free consultation.

          $375?? That is a very good deal. $450 is also a great deal. The only problem is the size of the damn thing!

            The price you paid is a good price. Did it come with a roady to carry it for you!!

            Nice amp... and a good score. Congratz!

              It's a pretty solid price you paid for the amp. It's nothing spectacular, but it's very solid and fair for the amp.

              I scored my 5150 head for about $300...It was like new. That was a steal =P.

                    My 5150 doesn't have a lot of fuzz.

                          Hopefully if it's a practice amp you won't really have to move it
