Greetings All,
I came across this forum searching for info on an old Randall Commander I amp I have.
I bought the amp about 25 years ago or so and it's pretty much sat covered up in my folk's storage room ever since. I fired it up the other day with an old Peavey T-60 guitar that's been keeping it company all these years and the amp still works, it looks and sounds really good. . .and LOUD. I can't even get the volume knob past 1 without all the neighbors' dogs going apesh*t.
I'm seriously considering selling the amp because I doubt that I'll ever use it anymore. The amp is in "like new" condition, so I figure someone else can still get some good play out of it. The problem is I don't know what a good asking price is.
I can't find hardly any info about it online (i.e. history, quality, resale value, etc.), not even in the Guitar/Amp Blue Book. The local guitar shops haven't been much help either. One shop wants to give me 75 bucks for it, but I feel that's too little. I saw an identical model for sale online for $349, but that sounds a little steep -- but again, I don't know.
Can anyone here offer some advice in this regard? Thanks in advance for any assistance.
(My apologies for such a lengthy initial post.)
