I'm seeing a neurosurgeon on Tuesday, at which time I expect him to tell me I need an ACDF, and won't be able to practice nursing for 6-8 weeks afterwards. Since I'm in enough pain now that practice is challenging--and I'm also now only intermittently-employed, my spouse and I have decided its time to liquidate some of our nicer toys. Pics of almost anything are available on request, Prices are obo, but keep in mind we've a daughter to feed, clothe, and send to Harvard in thirteen years... ;)
Michele
1) (SOLD) Grado RS-1 headphones. These used to be Grados flagship. They're still wonderful, especially when combined with the RA-1 amp. Come with 1/4-1/8 adapters, extra ear cups. --$325
2) Grado SR-325 headphones. For my money, possibly a touch more sonically-accurate than the RS-1s, which I think are forgiving and slightly warm. I like them (325s) better for shorter listening sessions, as they're heavier than the RS-1s, brighter, and perhaps a touch crisper. $175
3) Grado RA-1 headphone amp. A solid-state headphone amplifier run by two 9-V batteries, and encased in a block of mahogany. What could be nicer? --$275
4) (SOLD)Taylor 614ce with new case, 2 new sets of strings, capo. Stored in a climate-controlled room (45% RH+/-3#). New Tusq nut. Bookmatched curly maple back, beautiful clear voicing. $1200
5) Kreitler Alloy Rollers, 4" drums w/alloy end caps, fork stand, Killer Headwind, all bands/ bearings in excellent shape. $400
6) Klein Mantra (Chehallis-built, later 90s) medium in Race Red. Rock Shox Judy XC, Fox Alps 5R, Avid Arch Supremes with Avid SD-Ultimate levers. Drivetrain XTR M-950 (8-speed; much more durable), RaceFace NextLP crank with 110/74 bcd, RF rings. Bars: Klein Stratos). Saddle WTB SST98 Kevlar $1295.
7) Serotta MAX853 hardtail. Marzocchi Z2BAM fork w/canti & disc mounts/uncut steerer, CK rasta HS, WCS stem, Titec PG-150 bar, Syncros Double-Row Ti BB, RaceFace NextLP cranks in 110/74 bcd w/RF rings, Avid Single Digit Black Ops levers/brakes, handbuilt wheels w/King hubs (32 hole) w/DT Revolution spokes, Mavic 517 SUP CD Ceramic rims, XTR M953 rapid-rise drivetrain, Gore cables. $1500.
8) Baldor 7" bench grinder with multiple wheels, including a Norton 3x SG wheel, 46 grit, I hardness (good for woodworking tools). 1800 rpm (I think). Details to follow, $350
9) Epson Stylus Pro 3800--professional-grade photo printer for a serious hobbyist, barely used. I've not researched resale value, so forgive me if the price is off--$750, with extra ink cartridges and paper (Epson, Harman Gloss, Harman Matte).
More goodies will accrue as time allows!
