Killed some time this morning at a Goodwill before we did our tourist stuff while in St Louis yesterday/today.

Saw this SKB hard case in the corner for $50 and took it no questions asked.

Bonus had a guitar in it:

Also found an older Marshall 10 watt combo for $15, so altogether made out with a pretty decent 'hotel rig' for $65:

My wife has a Daisy Rock star shaped bass :lol: she loves it, and it's actually a good sounding bass.

I'm sure this guitar will be decent with a setup and maybe a pickup upgrade.. for $50 it would've been crazy not to buy it. Even $100-150 would've been fine.

I got that same amp for $15 too! Sheeeit, the Marshall badge costs more than the amp. Umm, yeah, the amp works. Better than nothing, f'sure.

That guitar and case though, that's awesome. My kind of score.

Yeah the amp really isn't as bad as the internet says it is lol. I actually had the 30w version of it 20+ years ago. I'm going to convert the power cord to IEC and add a speaker jack so we can pump it through one of my 4x12s. Fun stuff.
