*PRICE REDUCED, SEE ABOVE*

Sounds like a good deal, Aaron. What type of musical project are you about to embark on? Going to be a professional musician? Is it going to involve travel? if so, I can understand; pro musicians' home is often wherever they happen to be on the road, and it doesn't encourage putting down roots nor having a lot of "stuff" (except musical instruments and clothes, vehicle, etc.).

Anyway, whatever you are about to do in this next phase of your life, I hope it's happy and fulfilling for you.

Good luck mate!

Thanks Steve-O! I dont plan to stop growing CPs at all, i just REALLY need the $ right now to get some gear i need. Im going to be doing solo instrumental guitar stuff and i have quite a bit of equipment i need to get so this seemed like a good way to raise some funds. I may even keep a few plants just to keep the flame burning, then once i get a little further into the project i can build the collection back up again. I just know how much time my music is going to demand of me and i want to make sure i give it 300%. Hopefully somebody on here will want to buy it, and just to state the obvious...i am extremely willing to negotiate on the price, just in case any potential buyers are reading lol. So, dont worry...you guys can't get rid of me THAT easy lol. CPs are still a passion, i just gotta give everything i have to my 1st passion.

Yeah, just fyi...make me an offer...i am extremely willing to negotiate on the price, just dont shoot me in the foot lol. I just need to get this sold!

It would be good if you were living in the UK.......
Its really rare to get those kind of plants in the UK for such a small price.....

Youre the 2nd person who said that lol. I'm thinking im not gonna get a buyer on this one, and since i have had to take the price down so low to even generate a LITTLE interest i think im gonna call it quits on this one in a day or two. I already bought all my gear i needed anyway lol...i would just be making up some $ from the sale anyway. So if you want to get in on this i will lower the price ONE MORE TIME to $300 INCLUDING SHIPPING. If nobody bites by tomorrow at midnight i will cancel the offer and keep my plants.

What gear did you buy, Aaron? Just curious (as a musician myself)--

Yeah, I play guitar and am curious as well.

I play through a Gibson SG Special and use a little Marshall amp or thru my KRate:D

Right now i'm playing with a Peavey Limited Series EXP while i am rebuilding my 90's Strat. I got a custom paint job and im putting all custom parts back into it, EMG pickups, Sperzel Locking Tuners, Hipshot bridge, Warmoth neck. Thats gonna take a little while lol. I'm running my guitar through a Zoom G9.2TT with a Lovepedals Superlead distortion in the loop, into a Boss RC-50 Loop Station, and out to a vintage (80's) Yamaha G50-410 that is hands down the BEST amp score i have ever come across. It has the most amazing clean channel i have EVER heard, period...and it is LOUD. It takes my pedals/procerrors very well too, and makes them really shine and the 4 x 10 configuration really gives it a well rounded tone. I used to be a tube snob, but this is the best amp i have ever owned...and i have had all the requisite high end stuff before, but this thing wins because of its clean tone and the simple fact that it is perfect for what i do. I'm working on a solo instrumental guitar project with a visual/art element to it and right now i'm in the writing/gear tweaking phase. Probably gonna be at least a year or so before i can take it live, but it will be worth the wait. Ill probably be doing it in theaters and art collectives more so than rock venues, but the right venue will work under certain conditions. I just don't want the traditional "rock show" vibe to detract from the musical experience i hope to be giving people. We'll see, i may fall on my face and people might hate it lol...but you gotta go for broke, and never say die. It is the music i have wanted to make my entire life, so i am gonna give it the full shot i have always wanted to give it...and being a 1 man show, i have NOBODY's ego or laziness holding me back from achieving what i want to achieve.

So now it is all about work, running, and writing music. And of course, nursing my babies through dormancy....i have a strong feeling that i'm not going to be selling my plants. I mean, i already bought the gear i needed anyway, so it would just kinda be extra $ at this point. Plus, i think i would miss them too much, and its not REALLY that much work to take proper care of them.

If you sold some of the plants individually I have a feeling some people would be more interested. Just a guess.

Yeah, Yamaha is known for its very clean and quiet circuitry and very solid amplification and speakers that are overengineered for the amps (won't distort or blow as easily as many others). I love Yamaha gear (amps, pianos, MIDI tone generators), but lots of musicians seem to have a kind of disdain for Yamaha, like it's not "cool" enough or something. Yamaha is generally well-built, really good stuff.

Have fun Aaron, sounds like a neat project.
