So I'm considering, maybe, down the line trying to sell my Crack (Ironclad/Brass Shithouse, has pictures) to finance a Bottlehead S.E.X. kit.
I'm not quite there yet, and maybe I'll never get there but I'd like some help determining how much I could realistically ask for it.
It has the following internal mods:
Speedball - $125
Mundorf Mcap MKP (100uF 250V) - $95
Hammond 157M choke - $30
TKD 2C-601 pot - $40
JB JFX, PSU bypass cap (2.2uF 250V) - $1-2
Cosmetics
New knob - $15
Brass Corners - $78.41 (I know, jesus what was I thinking!?)
Clear poly coat
Bunch of tubes
12AU7 type:
Mullards x7
RCA Clear Tops x3
Genalex Gold Lion x1
6080 type:
Mullard x1
Svetlana 6N13S x2
Philips x1
It was wired and soldered to the best of my abilities.
My philosophy was pretty much "this should be able to fall down the stairs and still work" (It wont, of course, but I tried).
I'm particularly pleased with how I suspended the output caps from the top plate; metal clamps, sturdy, easy to either remove or replace caps.
The wiring from the RCA inputs to the pot could probably use a do-over, but they're good and solid.
Cracks pop up frequently on the marketplace here, some of the really unique ones go for $6-700 maybe more, while the stock variants go for about $400 it seems.
Let's say I could sell the lot, what would anyone be willing to pay, what would a reasonable asking price be?
