So you wanted to be a rock star? Finding the right piece of gear can be difficult, mostly because of there's a GIANT disconnect between "the sound in your head" and "the sound they're selling you." If you ask me, that's the disconnect that single handedly keeps the guitar industry afloat.  Let's face it - nobody is marketing to rock stars.  They're marketing to a guy who started playing guitar in high school, but eventually grew up and found that he had this super awesome thing called disposable income. In other words, me. You mean I've got more money than I need for food and shelter? Most major companies get this, and it's the obvious motivation behind all those lunch box heads, low wattage tube amps, and low cost " collect them all " vintage reissues.  The kids have to sleep, and daddy wants to rock out.  Most of these items are built to a price, and most leave you disappointed. Then there's this......

The last trade I made was an unqualified, no regrets kind of trade. This one isn't one of those... We talkin' about practice? I've been on the hunt for a super low wattage tube amp for awhile - something that could be cranked in the basement without disturbing the family. Since being rid of the Super Sonic 60 (which is certainly no practice amp), I've been relying on an older Peavey Envoy solid state for late night noodling. Surely, there had to be better options. Bye bye Two Rock Among my ever changing collection of stuff was a Two Rock 1x12 cab that I had no use for - the heads I had used it with were long gone, so it pretty much sat in the corner collecting dust. Looked damn fine doing it, but still. I posted the Two Rock cab up on Kijiji looking for a trade, but wasn't finding much luck. I had a few cash offers for $450, but nothing that I was willing to accept. Trades are harder to find, but you tend to get better value if you're patient. ...
