i can't view the link from my phone but I'm assuming it's the three solid states for $300? that is an awesome deal. I usually see colliseum bass' go for $300 alone.

Not $300 but $400 and the Concert Bass is missing Tolex and hardware - the Lead has a missing input jack and some Tolex - the keyboard looks less road worn. You can bet these amps have been abused - and probably "repaired" as well. One also wonders what the real meaning of

Well, you could always buy them, fix them up a bit then resell them for their current market prices each.

If prices were back up at their pre-depression era rate - it might be worth it. The Concert Bass is going to need too much work considering you have no idea about the electronics. The other two amps might sell in the $250 range AFTER you spend hours getting them back to original spec/sound. Then you have the hassle of selling them - ePay or Craigslist with the endless questions and low bids -no thanks. I've got too much on my bench now

Not even. A red knob Concert Lead will go for $400-$600, a red knob Concert Keyboard will go for $400 and a silver knob Concert Bass will go for about $300-$400, after a little bit of work to get them presentable it's worth it.

Indeed Walt. $300 for the lot is definitely worth it.
