    Default Hard work pays off

    Haven't had much time to do anything last couple months been working 7- 12 hr days. Took couple days off this holiday weekend to honor our fallen hero's!!!!!!
    Yesterday spent little time on ebay and won this
    http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...EOIBSA:US:1123
    Can't wait for it to show up just hope I get time to play it soon!!!!Been drooling for one of these for a long time with fenders price increases used is the only way I could go.With this and the 57 deluxe I built, I'm kinda thinking my pro jr will be collecting some dust. Will have to wait and see ,might put the jr up for sale.

    Wowwwwwwwww!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Now how on earth are you going to work 12 hour days knowing that is sitting at home?

    I read the sellers listing and it sounds like you purchased from someone that is a straight up seller. Sort of takes a lot of worry out of an e-bay purchase.

    I have to totally agree with you. About two years ago my guitar tech had several 65 Deluxes for sale. They were the amps they used in the shop to test guitars. They were selling them for 600 and I passed. Two years later a friend bought one and had to go into hospital for a couple of weeks so he asked me to pick it up and test it out. Well now I own one and I felt lucky to get it for 849. I would say it is the best amp that fender makes. You just can't get a better tone. Good Score for sure.
