My vintage AC30 foxy vox blew a fuse, but fine again now. Phew. I panic when one of my tube amps glitches.. I'm not great at issue solving, & resort to my trusty help on Music Electronics Forum to remedy. Thank god a swift fix this time.

Nearly £10m overall. 25% to charity + proceeds (400k) from a signed, newish goldtop.
Just the 1983 reissue Paul from the Live Aid gig and Money For Nothing made 1/2 a million. You can get a real burst for that - and pretty easily!
The 1988 Pensa-Suhr MK-1, was sold for another 1/2 million (72 times its midrange estimate!)

The guy who bought Gilmours '69 black Strat at Christies a couple of years ago for nigh on $4 million would outdo anyone when it comes to the 4 most expensive musical notes anyone could play on an instrument (the refrain to Wish You Were Here)
Gilmour gifted the $22 million he raised from that auction to some climate change activist group.
That's quite a few tins of soup to chuck over stuff.

They're nice, but not in the Sobell /Forster league. IMHO of course.The best acoustic guitars you have never heard of, but might well have heard:

Anyone have the Positive Grid Spark Go (the tiny phone size practice amp)? I have an old line 6 pod that’s playing up (honestly just the power connection so not a tricky fix) which I’m using as an excuse for something new.
It’s really just for noodling on the sofa, nothing too critical, I’m not expecting awesome tones (I’d like a small fender tweed and Marshall plexi tone and I’d be happy) but something significantly better than unplugged. The reviews look good, just curious if anyone has had one a got bored after a few months or if it retains its charm over time.

A pal has one of the small ones and loves it. I thought it sounded horrid.
I like to take a bluetooth speaker (as well as a guitar) on holiday and recently bought a NUX Mighty Space as the reviews looked interesting. I am delighted with it, it sounds pretty good as is but better still into my Fender cab with a Jensen Alnico blue.
