eBay-ese Guide to Amps

Greg Simmons · From: where the buffalo (used to) roam AND the Mojave

Maybe this belongs in Humour (then again, if you're the buyer it may not be so funny), but...saw this on the Magnatone-Valco list:

Ebay-ese: The speaker is missing but the tubes light up.
Translation: I jacked the speaker from this dog for my restoration.

eBay-ese: I don't have a guitar to test it with but the tubes light up.
Translation: This thing is broke or sounds awful.

eBay-ese: Just like Jimmy Page used on the 1st 2 Zep CD's.
Translation: Any Valco, Supro product ever produced.

eBay-ese: Could use a little servicing.
Translation: The Tranny's shot and the speaker is the wrong
impedance.

eBay-ese: Thinning out my personal collection.
Translation: Trying to make my 2000th ebay sale.

eBay-ese: Some minor cosmetic flaws.
Translation: The Tolex has been replaced with Krylon.

Moved to humor, probably a more apt place for this.
