Tempest (Worth it?)

I think you should post pictures of it in your garage (after you buy it) :DSeriously, if that were local to me, I'd already have it...
 
Just got off the phone with her, it's mine as I was the first to contact her,should be picking it up sometime in the next 2 hours, I'd only pass if there were something terribly wrong with it, will post up pics after I get it home, wish me luck ;)

I get a good "vibe" from her, if soemthing else comes up she will call me but I'm not feeling that from her at all.

Will do! Hope it's one of those "all it needs is a $2 fuse and it would be worth $4000" type of fixes... ;)

Probably needs a rebuild of the low-voltage section and reflow of the solder like any other dead 6100 ends up needing..

She really knew nothing about the cab, she was shocked to see it was missing the pcb, I put on my KLOV puppy dog eye's and gave her the $100 offer, she was happy to get it gone for anything at that point ;)

Better question, how much is a pcb and how hard to come by?
Not sure if anything else is functional at this point without it.
 
There's a partially-working boardset on eBay right now for $70-some dollars...BIN of $109.

Check here... They seem to run between $150 to $250 depending on how good a deal you get(klov brother discount on the low end).

If he still has it that is a nice price considering it also has Tempest Tubes installed.
