some of my old stuff that has retired seems to be appreciating much faster than my pension fund.

i paid £70 for my sound city 50 plus valve amp in the 80s. ebay now has them on for £5-600.

roughly the same time i paid £35 for an ibanez mostortion stompbox which now goes for ten times that on ebay.

not sure my late 90s peavey stage wedges have gone up like that. seems like there is a watershed after which new stuff just depreciates

as to gibsons i had a friend in the 60s with a prewar J45 but he never let on it was pre korean war.............
