    NBD pawn shop find

    Just picked up this little gem for a song! Went in halfway looking for some cheap lawn tools, weed eater, chainsaw, etc , and saw.... this! CIJ Geddy Lee with case and strap locks. They had a very reasonable price on it, but after some discussion and the promise of paying their asking prices...

    NBD Squier CV 60’s Pawn Shop

    was on a road run and stopped in a small town pawn shop today. They had this fairly well used CV 60s J hanging, spent a few minutes with it and it played really nice, and sounded good plugged in, even with not-dead-but-not-far-from strings. Owner indicated willingness to deal off the tagged...

    Found my guitarists main guitar in a pawn shop

    I've been jamming a little with this guitarist for a few months on and off. We have been searching for a "non-flakey" drummer since Christmas and haven't found one. The guitarist plays some very well versed blues and knows his way around the fretboard. I haven't spoken directly with him in a...

    Pawn shop decisions: Old Stinger vs Chinese Squier

    I took off from the day-gig a little early today to do a little gallivanting. I stopped by a pawn shop that used to have a decent selection of stuff, but the choices were slim today. They did have two p-basses: A newer Chinese Squier, with a jazz-style neck (and the tiniest frets I have ever...

    The biggest "Holy F!! This thing plays AMAZING!" factor for me was from my $99 pawnshop beater bass to when I got my Yamaha RBX750 for Xmas one year (I think it was an approx $400 bass new). Everything seemed so easy to play on the Yamaha. Then when I went from my Yamaha to a brand new MM...

    1972 P-Bass at pawn shop

    So I ran into this bass. The guy didn't have a price on it yet. I wasn't in the market to buy it so I tried to help him out a bit on the potential value. Whoever previously owned it and taken small reflective decal letters and pasted it on the back, below the neck that said 1972. I have no...

    Used Aguilar cab from pawn shop, real or fake?

    So a few days ago I picked up an Aguilar gs410 from a pawn shop at an insane price. This is the first real cabinet I've ever bought , and it sounds really good, but since I got it for so cheap, I'm suspicious that it's a fake. All the pictures of the gs410 are a bit different from what I have...

    Great Pawn Shop Find (Eden WT800)

    I was happy to find this today at a pawn shop and put it on layaway for $320. It appears to have been made in 2003. Looks new cosmetically. Tried it out and everything checked out. I hooked it up to my Ampeg 610hlf there and sounded sooo juicy. They let me crank it... man what a sound! Anyway...

    Fender pawn shop find

    Hello, can anyone shed some light on this find? This bass is mint with minor scuffs on the pickgard . Wonderful feel, nice and neat work. What did these go for new? What is the used value? They want $1300 for it (of course, I would haggle that price)

    NBD! Pawn Shop Sterling Ray34

    I've been stalking this Ray34 at a pawn shop for about a month. It was a decent deal at $400.00 but it has its share of bumps and bruises. At the the time they wouldn't deal. They said if it was still around in 2 weeks they'd knock $100.00 off. I called their bluff and came home with it today...

    Just grabbed this from the local Cash Converters. In really good condition. Straight neck and it has StrapLoks. Less than 9lbs too. Just have to upgrade the electronics as the current set is not pleasing to the ear. Planning a full EMG upgrade.
