CAD 7 Piece Drum Mic Set - $150
Great budget set of drum mics. Bought them a few years ago and they've spent most of the time in the case. I just don't have a good location for recording right now.
washburn force 4 bass guitar: $425
I LOVE this bass, but Shuana plays it more these days than I do so it's time to sell this one and buy one more her style. Great bass: mahogany body, neck-thru, grover tuners, rosewood fingerboard, and active electronics. It's got an upgraded bone nut and has a Bartolini preamp installed ($150+) and was recently set up with Ernie ball strings. You can read more about this bass at Musicians Friend including only 5 star reviews here.
1972 Di Giorgio Classical guitar w/ hardshell case - $250
I picked this one up a few years ago and, sadly, it has spent almost all of that time in the case. This guitar is made in Brazil and 40 years old! It is in amazing shape for its age! If you're going to buy a classical guitar, it makes since to buy one from people that know what they're doing and the DiGiorgio company and Brazil have a rich history with the guitar. I have read that the Bossa Nova was essentially created on Di Giorgio guitars and many of the top bossa nova players in the late 60s and early 70s used them.
It has a slightly smaller body than the average acoustic or classical I've played. It also has a wider neck. This makes for easier playability and a more comfortable playing experience. I'm very impressed with the tuners on this guitar. They are smooth, rust free and hold tune very well.
It needs a D string, but would benefit from a new set of strings. Comes with hardshell case.

BOSS CS3 Compressor/Sustainer - $40
This is a great pedal to add some sustain to your sound or even out your playing. A compressor will essentially make your quiet notes louder and and make your loud notes quieter. Every compressor will color your sound, but I like the way my guitars sounded through this pedal. I have used this pedal with acoustic guitar, bass guitars, and electric guitars. Very versatile pedal.

Seaborn Effects Custom Preamp/Boost - $50
I picked this pedal up in a trade about a year ago. It's marketed as a preamp. I found it to be a really great boost pedal. I lent it to my electric guitar and he said it sounded to much like his Tubescreamer to warrant a space on his board. That shows you the versatility of this pedal. It can do everything from a preamp (adding a little color and warmth to your sound) to a boost (for added volume and gain) to a rich tubescreamer-like overdrive. It's got four different "voices" of overdrive/boost for you to choose from as well as tone, gain, and volume knobs.
I'm an amateur pedal builder on the side. I haven't seen any other products from Seaborn effects, but I can assure you that this guy knows what he's doing. It's a solid, versatile pedal that would be an asset to your pedal board.

SOLD!!!
PDP Main Drum Rack with Side Rack and EXTRAS - $325 SOLD!!!
Time to simplify. Though I love the ease of use and options available with a drum rack, I've decided to go a much smaller and simpler setup these days.
What's Included:
*** Front drum rack for cymbals/toms/etc
*** Removable side drum rack that can be attached to either side of
the front rack to hold extra gear
*** FIVE cymbal arms (four of them are nice DW tech-lock arms)
*** SEVEN clamps for cymbals/toms/etc (six of them are PDP)
*** SEVENTEEN memory locks to keep the rack and your gear in place

Rangemaster Clone: $50 SOLD!!!
Super cool pedal. Love the enclosure, but it never found a permanent place on my board.
eclipse drum set $100 - SOLD!!
Want to find out if your child is going to stick with drums before spending hundreds of dollars? This is the way to go. Nothing flashy here. Just the basics. The toms and bass drum have no resonant head on the bottom so the drums won't ring as much. These drums have been tuned and set up by me and they are in good, playable shape. The hardware and cymbals are cheap, and I would recommend upgrading them or upgrading the entire set once you know that your child will stick with drums.
Seagull S6 Acoustic
w/ Hardshell Case - $250 SOLD!!
The Seagull S6 is THE guitar that I recommend when someone asks me what guitar they should get. It is the best "bang for your buck" guitar out there, easily competing with guitars that are 2-3x more expensive. I've played a higher end version of this guitar every week to lead worship for almost 5 years. I love this guitar.
This guitar has a solid ceder top that is prone to small nicks and scratches (ceder is a soft wood). There is nothing here that affects playability, but there are some small scratches and nicks on the top of the guitar. I just got this guitar professionally setup and had a strap button installed. The action is nice and low and it's got a new set of Ernie Ball Earthwood strings. Complete with plush lined hardshell case.
This guitar sells new for $399, without a hardshell case ($100). You can read more than one hundred four and five star user reviews for this guitar here.

Epiphone Les Paul Nuclear Extreme w/ hardshell case: $425 SOLD!!
This was my first real electric guitar. Limited model, made only in 2000/2001. Every now and then you can see one of these pop up on Ebay, but it's rare. The Action is low and the electronics work perfectly. Comes with Dimarzio strap locks and strap installed and original epiphone hardshell case. The pics really don't do this guitar justice.
Excel Electric Guitar
w/ Johnston Amp - $150 SOLD!!
Black Stratocaster copy. I picked this guitar up over the summer and gave it "the works". It has been completely disassembled to check and assure that every part is working as it should. The electronics are in great shape, and the action is set nice and low. This guitar looks and sounds great and it's got a fresh set of Ernie Ball strings. I'm actually impressed that a generic guitar can feel and sound as good as this one does. This is a great guitar for a beginner-early intermediate student.
The Johnston amp is a solid little practice amp. I've played on a few of these over the years. While it doesn't have all of the bells and whistles that more expensive amps have, it's got everything you need. Even includes a headphone out for silent practice!
This is a great pack to get started in electric guitar and this guitar/amp will blow away any other combo in this price range. Instrument cable included.

Alesis QS6 Keyboard and Stand - $175 SOLD!!
I've had this keyboard for a few years. 61 keys, 512 preset sounds. Lots of fun sounds here in addition to the normal grand piano sounds. This would be great for a beginner piano student or a keyboardist looking for a moderately priced keyboard as a primary or secondary unit. Comes with keyboard, power cord, sustain pedal, stand, and padded gig bag.
BOSS DD20 Delay Pedal: $175 SOLD!!
This is a great delay pedal. The DD20 and the Line6 DL4 are basically the industry standards for delay. I've owned both and they are both incredible pedals. The only reason that I am getting rid of this is because I picked up the new Line 6 M13. Here are some of the features I loved about the DD20: 5 different saved delay setting (including the manual setting), dotted eighth delay (for The Edge, U2 sounds), see delay time in BPM, tap tempo, powerful looper...
