The Steel Guitar Forum

Ricky, it was a 1971 model. The birdseye in those necks is about the prettiest I've ever seen. That is a clean, uncluttered undercarriage. Beautiful job all around. I'll see if I can figure out who bought this guitar from me- I'd love to know where it is.

I was reminiscing with Ricky Davis about some of the Marlen guitars that he repaired, rebuilt or overhauled for me, and this one from 2004 came to mind. I checked my photo archives, and sure enough I still had the photos. Y'all feast your eyes! My local buddy Ray Walker (RIP) refinished the cabinet,...

Ricky, I'm playing guitar only these days... don't own a steel at present. But I have some great photos of the Marlens and that "Spirit" Speedy West you resurrected. I'll try to pull some of them together and post them one day soon... that was beautiful work! The Speedy West was sold befor...

Moderator, please close this one up. Found a home for these parts. Thanks!

Hi folks. I was very active on the Forum for several years in the early 2000s, but life took me in new directions, and I haven't been seen at all (by you) for quite some time. Thanks to b0b for allowing me back in to offer this stuff for sale/trade... or whatever. What I have here are some Marlen/Sp...

I'll try to post some pics by the weekend.

I had a '66, and I sold it in 1973 for $55, when everything was going solid state and you could scarcely find anyone who would work on a tube amp. I kick myself (again) every time I see something like this. Beautiful amp! By the way, I am (since 1978) the owner of a '65 Vibrolux Reverb, and this see...

I'm interested in selling my silverface, non master volume Twin Reverb. The chassis stamp dates to 1971, and I haven't taken it apart to check transformer codes, etc. It has the original orange label JBL D-120F speakers, never reconed. The amp sounds great- loud and clean, as it should be. Please PM...

Bump!

Hey guys- I've decided to sell my 1990s tweed Peavey "Blues Classic" in "nearly new" condition. This is a 50w, all-tube "Made in USA" amp with amazing tone, power and volume. The amp is all original, and has a 15" Blue Marvel speaker. I'm guessing this would make a...

Still available!

I have a Peavey DPM Accessory Cache Card 32 with Jeff Newman Presets. I'll take 75.00 including shipping in the USA.

Thanks!

I was in Jim's Pawn Shop on Yadkin Rd. in Fayetteville today, and saw a Carter Starter for $499. Just thought I'd let you guys know, in case it can help somebody.

I don't care too much about PS, but just wanted to say "hi" to all my old buddies. How ya'll doin'?

FWIW, I vote guilty.

I'm selling this Tubefex and rack for $250 plus shipping. The unit is loaded with the Jeff Newman presets, and the original manual is included. I do not know whether it has been modified in any way, so please don't ask. I only know that it has behaved itself while in my care. One of the guitar playe...

A well-informed friend has just emailed me and he tells me that I've probably seriously undervalued this amp. Ergo, I'm going to take it off the block until I have a chance to do some research. Please close this thread.

Thanks!

Rick

It's original, including the Jensens, tilt-back legs and footswitch. Tolex is w...

Off topic, but I'm a Dusty Springfield fan. "What Are You Doing the Rest Of Your Life?' Sigh...

I've got a 2003 Eric Clapton signature "Blackie" Strat here in the shop. $850 (includes this case, not original) plus shipping. No sales tax outside NC. This guitar is in very good condition, and would be a great deal for somebody. Call 919-989-1805 and speak with me (Rick), Jon or Scott. ...

This stuff is sold. Please close this thread. Thanks!

Aw, you guys are embarassing me

I'd like to give this gear a fair chance to sell as a package. If that doesn't happen within 3-4 days, I'll be happy to honor the first responders on the individual pieces. Folks, don't confuse this changer with the old Marlen pull-release changer that gets mixed reviews here... this is Leonard's AL...

I've decided to sell my personal steel outfit- I'm playing with two excellent bands, but it's all guitar and bass... no steel... so the time has come to say "adieu" to some nice gear. I have a 1982 Marlen D10 PSG (8 & 5, all-pull, green in color), a Nashville 400 amp (with Peavey mod a...

The "church" version of the B3 was the C3... same guts, different cabinet. Hammond made several organs that had the B3-style cabinet, but weren't much like the B3... older A's and M's, as I remember. I spent a lot of hours in high school hauling my buddy's L-100 around. He had a 147 to go ...

Hey Guys and Gals.

I have a Nashville 400 (w/ Peavey mod and BW speaker) for sale. This is a clean amp that used to belong to Ray Walker of Walker Seats.

$350, plus shipping from 27577. Or you can pick it up at Tarheel Music in Smithfield, NC (my shop) www.tarheelmusic.com.

Thanks!

Rick
