Lab Series L5 amp??

Post by Tavis Anderson »

I have a L5 amp, identical to the amp shown in the following link:

I'm in the market for something a little smaller and a different sound. I'm wondering what this monster might be worth for a trade in or selling outright- then getting an amp that I would prefer instead. I've been searching (maybe not in the right places) to find what they are worth but am having no luck.
Thank you in advance for any help/ info.

The first place to look is eBay:

Evidently they're going for around $350 with $50 shipping.

That same amp, with the EV 15" speaker, is killer for steel! Sounds more like a tube amp than a SS amp. I really regretted selling mine and getting a Peavey Vegas, which I hated! But that's another story!
