Title: eBay auction with Guns N' Roses gear, equipment and props
Post by: jarmo on June 14, 2012, 04:41:52 AM
To make room for new stuff, Guns N Roses touring crew recently went through the band's warehouse and cleared out a bunch of gear, equipment and props the band no longer need.  These items are being listed on eBay. Click here (http://www.ebay.com/sch/dvamp2u/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_from=&_ipg=50) by seller dvamp2u (the only legitimate seller of this gear).  A number of items such as amplifiers, keyboards, rack/outboard gear, guitar effects, pedal boards, staging, props, back drops and road cases will be listed over the next few weeks. Check the eBay page regularly for new listings. Unless specified, we cannot identify which (if any) tour these items are from, nor can we accommodate any requests to get items autographed or authenticated (please do not ask).  More information can be found in the descriptions of each item.

Everything will be sold at no reserve. We cannot accommodate any requests to have items autographed and no certificate of authenticity will be included.

it says "to make way for new stuff", so im guessing the money will benefit the crew and the band

This might get interesting.  :drool: Please keep us updated when the auctions are ready to start.

I just hope they accept shipping outside US. Of course this means it's expensive for the buyer.  :peace:

Are you seeing any pictures for 2 through 10?  I was excited about this item in particular.  And then I got to the price.  Still think it would be something to cool to have.

So awesooome!!!!!!

Very very cool they are doing this.. I will be making a purchase or three  :hihi:

This is pretty cool. I love when a band does something like this. I could see placing bids on stage props and fx pedals but the one thing I would go all out for would be one of Richard's black '68 Les Paul Customs. I would dig deep with my credit card even if it hurt. I don't think it will happen but I can hope.

Wrong section, and believe me I would know!  Just messing around.  Can't wait to see what else gets listed.  Also, I wonder why the one road case (no pic) is listed for $999?  Just a typo maybe?


Title: Re: eBay auction with Guns N' Roses gear, equipment and props
Post by: samoice on June 15, 2012, 08:45:24 AM
just thought of a cool idea.
Bumbles guitar amp rack box used  as a tv stand in your front room xD perfect amount of storage underneath and strong enougth to hold a big tv id imagine plus a talking point of your front room  :D
$99 tv stand but what other room has one lol.


Title: Re: eBay auction with Guns N' Roses gear, equipment and props
Post by: cineater on June 15, 2012, 08:57:57 AM
The rest are $99, okay!  And just in time for my birthday.  :D

Yeah not sure what I'm going to do with this but a GNR road case always puts a smile on my face.

Maybe while doing some clearing out, they'll dig out the Vegas 01.01.01 show and release it  :P

That piece of red tape on W10 says Richard.

Calculated shipping for me would be almost $700.  Does that sound right?

Probabaly, depending on ur location

It's a drop ship/freight shipping.. From CA to MO for me it'll cost close to $400

I'm super exited already. Can't wait to see what else is for sale. Might have to sell some of my Guitar gear to get something.  :rofl:

You want one, Amy wants one and I want one.  I'll run Amy's up to Wisconsin but they have to get them to St Louis for this to work out.

I had no clue how much those things weight.  I think the one I was looking at is over 300 pounds.  Poor road crew.  Wonder how many of those they take with them.

Cases?

Just enough.  ;)


The whole idea is to not have too many cases if you can manage with less.


It's like traveling with luggage. Why have two bags if you can manage with just one.

Ask the seller if they will let you arrange your own pickup, then go and search out some local haulage firms.

There is always a cheaper option.


Title: Re: eBay auction with Guns N' Roses gear, equipment and props
Post by: cineater on June 19, 2012, 12:03:39 AM
The seller did say they had a cheaper option.  Last time I checked the e-bay option had been disabled.

Still, I'm going to have to wait until they bring the truck load sale to me.  :D

Don't you think some local band is just waiting until close to the end to pick those up?  They look in pretty good shape to me.  Would be kind of sad to see them retired so soon.

By the looks of the logos on the case they look to be from at least the 2002 world tour, maybe even 2001 shows.

The keyboard case even has a "CONART" sticker on it, which comes from Ash Hudson, Slash's brother.  Conart created the GN'R skull flag design and the drive-by shooting t-shirt back in early 1990's. 


It is very cool to see the cases and I would love to have one to use as a coffee table or something.  Can't wait to see what else turns up!

Pretty sure the weight listed on the cases is when they are full.  I can't see empty flight cases nearing 300lbs!


Title: Re: eBay auction with Guns N' Roses gear, equipment and props
Post by: Gezzy on June 20, 2012, 06:17:55 AM
Empty flight cases are generally very light in weight.


Title: Re: eBay auction with Guns N' Roses gear, equipment and props
Post by: cineater on June 20, 2012, 06:55:11 AM
I would have thought that too.  Can't find where I saw the weight before so don't rule out I was wrong.  The freight thing is working again.

Oh man, me too.

A couple years ago when Robin put his stuff on eBay, I wanted that Wind Red Les Paul Custom SOOOOOOOO badly but I just couldn't afford it.

I know me too, this is very cool indeed that GN'R are doing this... I'm very tempted by some of the items myself. I would love to have a guitar that's been modded by a GN'R guitarist, and has been adjusted to play GN'R songs, with all the specifications etc... would love that.  :smoking:

I wonder what lucky person ended up getting that effects pedal, that Robin used to record the Chinese Democracy solo.  :drool:

I didn't see anybody yell score!  Maybe local bands are buying them up.  I hate seeing shipping more than the price they are selling for.
