my life is complete
so there i am, in my local music store, and this guy comes in with a Crate Blue Voodoo 120H. Hes talkin to the sales rep, and as they're playing it, they find that the reverb doesnt work, so they turn the guy down. The guy notices that im watching, and asks if i want to buy it. I tell him that i only have $100 with me, and he says oh. So we're standing, and i ask for his number, so i can get some more cash and call him. He stands there for a second and says "I'll give it to you for $75."
I GOT A CRATE BV120H HEAD FOR $75!!!!
I just gotta go to Guitar Center and get the reverb chamber fixed, and ill be good to go. I LOVE MY LIFE!

I'm not sure, but I'd assume you could find a better price on ebay. If not new, definetly used.

damn! get the reverb fixed so if you ever want to sell it, it'll be in "perfect working order".
normally the bv120h goes for like $300-$400 used... you could fix the reverb, get it rebiased, retubed, maybe even modded, with all the money you saved.

they have the reissues, and the new ptp handwired series.... i'd just find a used one and get it checked out by a tech... the origionals are probably just as good if not better anyways.

I like Crate's. I got a old SS shack and it does ok. Not bad at all. I would like to mix it with a tube stack for added complex tone, but so far it is not bad.
I like SS tone.

Im not dissing SS, just making fun of Necro..
Even though I'm really not a big SS fan, but I can tolerate some.. the VH140c not being one of them.

I know you hate SS and EMG BLS. It is not secret here. I bet you would like the way I use it though. |

I dont hate SS or EMG's.. I just dislike them and think their are much better alteratives.
Hell, I have an EMG in one of my guitars, of course my passive shits all over it but the EMG isent so bad that it's worth the effort to sell it and buy a passive to replace it.
And some SS amps are decent when you want that ultra tight tone.. which isent what I look for in an amp.
Back to the Blue Voodoo.

i wouldnt hasitate buying a blue vodoo 120h for anything but death metal
when i played it at a store it lacked balls (death metal balls)
i bet if they were modded they could sound pretty good
clean owned though
hopefully that store gets on back soon, id like to play it again and get to re confirm my opinion
