I am proud to announce that I have purchased a new git and a new amp today!!!! Just couldn't stand to pass up these deals:

Peavey HP Signature EXP guitar - the very same one I traded for my Peavey HP Special USA! Man, I hated to let it go, and now I have it back again for $399!!!! MSRP is $719 - streets new for $549 on MF and locally (Free gig bag, free polishing cloth, 8 free medium picks!!!) And I know how well it was taken care of, cause it was mine originally! :)

Peavey Delta Blues 2x10 combo amp - $799 MSRP, regular street $639...I got it for $499!!!! Unbelievable deal!!!! Honest to God, I don't know where I'm gonna put it! It's huge and heavy and I have NO floor space left!! Nice problem to have, though! :D

I am such a happy dude, man. When deals like this are found, you just don't pass 'em up!!!! I didn't think twice, just went quick-like to the bank and did the deal!! :) :D :bravo: :beer:
 
NICE!!! :AOK: :dude: :beer: I had a Delta Blues 1x15 and loved the tone, but it was just too much power for my little back room. ENJOY!! :rockon:
 
Thanks, guys! It shakes my nerves and rattles my brain to find gear of this quality at these prices, all in the same day!

Whew! I am WORN OUT! I'm gonna have a lie down and decompress. Then comes the task of rearranging to find space for the Delta Blues. But I'll be playin tonite, you can bet! :AOK:

Oh, and if I ever find someone I know who has a digital camera, I'd love to post pics of all my gear. In time, my friends, in time...:)

Thanks, pie! I'm sure I will! :beer:

I'm off now to rest up a bit. Spending large sums of $ always wears me out! :D

Have a great night, fellow fretters!
 
Congrats Big G,put them earplugs in and have at her.The way you go on about those Peavey's,I am going to have to try one.Sumi:D
 
The Delta Blues 210 is an awesome amp. I really like the tones I get from mine, and I really like the fact that it's fixed bias so tube swaps are pretty simple.

One minor "mod" I did was place a 12dw7/ecc83 2 in the V2 position, which made the overdrive a bit smoother and more Fenderish; not as gritty. Also, it lowered the volume a bit so it's manageable for home.

Great amps....Peavey classic series amps are real workhorses.

Welp, dvm, it should be right at home in my apartment! OY! :rotflmao:

Well folks, I did alot of rearranging and moving and discarding. My Delta Blues now has a place to sit! Man, what a hassle that was, but well worth it. I could use the exercise anyway *huffin n puffin* Man, that's so gonna hurt in the morning!

Time now to plug in and fire her up. I'll likely run 2 or 3 guitars thru her tonight, just a kinda get-familiar w the various sounds and tones. Tomorrow, if I can still move, I'll likely spend the day playin, and try a few more gits.

Thanks for all the kind words, guys! I'm really proud and really happy. Whenever I get new gear, I'm like a kid at Christmas time! :D
 
Plug in your Casino first. DB210 + Casino = killer rhythm tones. I had both, you're making me miss them badly. The DB was just too powerful for me too.
