What's a good price for a UL head with eq and a fatbottom cab... 2200 bucks sound about right?
 
For a 4 KT88 Ultralead? About right, I'd offer $2k. I've seen those cabs go for $400.
 
There is a FB 412 cab on my local CL for $475 for weeeeeeeeekkkssss.... and it still hasn't moved.

Seems the VHT's have taken a pretty hard hit in value the last few years. I remember when buying a UL head alone for under $2400 was a decent deal.
 
I just bought a mint UL, still in the box from 2009 with the VHT logo for $2500. The reason I got interested in that amp is because I picked up a used Deliverance 120 for $800 and it is probably the best single channel stripped down amp in terms of $/watt for me. The D120 kicks all sorts of ass, if you can get by with a single channel rig. All the years I have been messing with amps, I have never bought or checked out a Fryette product. One reason is that I have never been a fan of KT88 based amps. That just changed.

BTW, Jason F. has two FB cabs in Texas to sell.

Ive had a D60 since 2006, great amp. I'd love to spend some time with an UL.

I know, right? :lol: :LOL: :lol: :LOL: :lol: :LOL:
 
You're going to LOVE the UL! It's a constant battle between that and the Herbert's Ch. 2+ for my favourite modern metal tone.

Market is a bit different in Canada
I sold a FatBottom cab for 700$ about one year ago
I ain't touching any more VHTs with a 10 foot pole, FWIW

Mind if I ask why?

Owned 3 different models, just not my thing
They're not horrible, just have pros that don't appeal to me and cons that I really dislike
 
I hate my FB cab. lol Its mint Fryette badged and only about a year old. I'd sell it for $400 on a local deal. I did just put v30s in it though and I like it alot more, but still like my UL better through my Mills cabs (with scumbacks). If I was gonna sell my UL (early 2012 model, mint Fryette badged) I'd want to clear $1,900. So I'd say $2,300 local pick-up and I'd be happy selling. Not that I'm planning to sell the head.

You should sell it to me even though you're not planning to sell it and I'm not local :D.
I'm actually working on a deal with someone within Canada, I hope it works out.

the cab? $400 in my pocket and I drop off at UPS with your phone number.... then you deal with them on packing and shipping. :)

I'd be putting the p50e speakers back in it.
 
I JUST sold a fatbottom 4x12 on eBay, the bidding went up to $430
