So a few years ago I bought this beautiful brown 65 Reissue Deluxe Reverb with Oxford Red grill and It was one of my favourite amps... Things got rough financially and I had to sell it... and I usually won't sell gear that I really love.. this was the only time I had to and did it.. I sold the Deluxe Reverb along with a brand new Super Sonic 22 and regretted it on The Deluxe Reverb ever since. Things have been good for a bit now so I finally got around to replacing my loss. I just got this 65 Reissue Twin Reverb. It's on it's way in the mail now and I can't wait to play with it! So I figured I'd share my loss and gain with the Guitar community and hope none of you ever have to sell your most fav amp or guitar!

I remember my own "rough" times and all the great gear I had to toss under the bus.

Canada was a couple of years behind USA when that financial mess occurred in '08.
I survived '08 and '09 without much scathing.
2010 on the other hand, was a really lean year for me.
That one hurt.
A lot.
I sold off quite a bunch of different stuff but there were two items that gave me the most regret.
One was a SiverFace Vibrolux Reverb.
The one depicted in my tagline pic.
I got a very good dollar for it at the time or I would not have otherwise sold it.
The other was my sweet, pristine G-Body Cutlass.
I got much more than I was asking for the Olds because a bidding war happened, which didn't hurt my feelings at the time.
While the two sales helped me get through the year that doesn't stop me regretting.
I also sold some superfluous guitars and amps, a golf cart and other sundry items but the car and the SFVR are the ones I still feel.

Have fun and enjoy the new toy!!

Just think of how awesome a guitar player you could have been by now if you had only spent the last 10 years practicing instead of obsessing over pickups and roasted maple necks.
