Title: Vintage Kustom Gear
Post by: edwardofhuncote on June 21, 2017, 05:15:50 PM
Thought you guys might get a kick outta' this... we somehow ended up in a discussion on vintage Kustom equipment a while back.

Somebody near me is selling what must be a truck-load of that stuff, including bass amps, and PA's.

I gotta' admit... I'm a little bit curious how my Distillate would sound through that 3x15 rig.  ::)

Oh my - if shipping were not in the equation, I'd probably have to skip on the mortgage this month.....
Is the a K-100 guitar amp in the pile?

Piece them together into a couch, wire them up to your surround system!!!!

Seriously, those are too kewl, wish I had disposable income, just to have one hanging around.  I bet I could get away with having one of those shined up sitting in the dining room!

Don't see one listed with this same guy Coz, but he does have a couple Kustom PA systems listed. This guy, whoever he is, (or was) was a connoisseur...  I wouldn't be afraid to bet he has a guitar amp too. ;)

Seeing some of the other amps in the background of some of the photos makes me wonder if the guy is the type who goes out and buy good condition garage sale items and warehouses them in the hopes they appreciate.

even seems a reasonable price; wish I lived near there but also glad as I DON'T need a new amp, but I would love to show up at a gig with one of those rigs...I want the blue one...
