So after a couple months of searching and making sacrifices that I didn't necessarily want to make (losing my 5470 :(), I came across a deal that I simply could not pass up. A friend of mine sold me a 6505+ with a B52 4x12 cab for $650. Even though I didn't have all of the money up front, he was very understanding and let me put a $300 down payment on it. I went to pick it up yesterday and saw that the cab was in shit condition, but to my surprise, sounds amazing. I promised a friend that I would give him the cab, but now I'm considering swapping out the speakers for the ones in my Hartke and giving him the B52. :lol: As for the head, it's in great condition and sounds monsterous. This is the exact tone that I've always wanted. I hardly had to fidget with the knobs at all. The tubes are still the standard Ruby 6L6GCM-STRs and are broken in nicely. I have a feeling I'll be keeping this one for awhile. :D

Now to the one picture. Nothing fancy, just a standard 6505+.

You have a great friend!

Keep the cab, beat cabs are awsome!

Too late. I have no money to fix it up. He's got enough cash to redo the Tolex, put wheels on it, and doll it up a bit.

Should've taken the speakers out though. :lol:
