Got a bass amp. A Gallien-Krueger 400RB Mark-IV 2x10 combo. It looks perfect but needs repair. Since I got it for 20 bucks... I figured it was worth the risk, I bet I can fix it. He also had some sort of Crate bass amp, looked like a 4x10 and an old Peavey SS PA head. I didn't look close at it but it looked like 5 or 6 channels, not a board but a head configuration. It was cheap too, I probably should have pied it up too.
The guy mentioned that he has his dads Gretsch Country Gentleman and is thinking of selling it. He said his 5 string bass had a loose input jack, I think I'll fix it for him and buy the Peavey PA head... if he sold the G-K combo for 20 bucks who knows.. maybe he will sell the Gretsch for cheap too.
Anyone interested in a Crate bass amp, probably 4x10 SS, I think I can get it for 25 bucks, or the Peavey PA head for that matter.
 
The G-K is this one: I hope I can fix it. I'll try a new power cord first, I have a bad full of extra power cords. I cannot seem to find a fuse but I'll open it up if I can't get it to go.
I am grateful for any ideas..
 
I guess I need to restring my Alembic Squire Bronco!
 
Thanks!

Nice find!

Thanks Rain. I'll let you know how the fixin' goes. I hope it is easy. I wonder how it sounds with a guitar, good I bet. It's a sexy amp.

Looks heavy to kart around.
Needs big wheels on it.
 

It's a nice find if just the speakers work.

It isn't too bad, it has side handles... but I was thinking about wheels too.
 
@Drew, I was thinking that too. The cab and speakers are worth more than 20 bucks.
 
I think this is the Peavey PA head he had for 30 bucks.

I had a garage sale once, but afterwards I was forced to park my car on the street...

Nice Jbow! My brother used to always keep his eye out at garage sales for me. One time he picked up a 1970-ish Acoustic 370 bass head for $25, in mint condition! I remember reading that Billy Cox and other heavyweights of the era used that amp. The thing is a monster, and I've still got it. I see them go for around $500 on eBay now. What a deal! He also bought me a 1974 Roland SH-3 synthesizer with a little fire damage on the case for $15!

I had a Gretsch Country Gentleman once , it was a real nice guitar 
oh , nice bass amp btw...

I still have my '59 Gretsch amp. Don't know the exact model though. It's got 2-12's, and a guitar, bass, and accordion input. Oh, and a wicked tremelo section.
