I think he still has most of the prized equipment from the golden age. But this time around it’s gonna be fun.

“This is a priceless piece of history. This guitar was used in Anaise! and Tiberius. The solo on Solara was all this Reverend!”

I’d save those 5k bucks for the Mogwai reverb shop but thanks.

Investors buy this shit, not players. Some Napa Valley wine baron will purchase this shit and hang it on the wall of his man cave or leave it in storage.

I didn't see the Gish guitar on there for $500. If that's true, I am buying it and will make a poll on Netphoria on what to do with it!

I'm not saying I would ever do that, or consider doing that, or that I desperately want to do that.


Just that someone else might want to do that.

Yeah very fair prices especially considering it's stuff selected by a famous musician and not some obscure find in someone's uncle basement.

Exactly what I was thinking. Shipping costs are going to be tough, but totally worth it.

Can't help but wonder if this is some kind of bitter vindicative response to the sad machines thing. Suddenly he needs the two hundred bucks for the preamps with which he recorded and toured his most successful records?

Seems more like a 'fuck your favorite records that I made, and forget about ever expecting that kind of shit from me again cause whammy-bar factory preset synth is all ur gonna get'

most of the listings are "owned by billy corgan" with zero proof that it was the actual unit he used at the time, and not one of the 8x duplicates he probably thought he needed to own at one point.
