Go to a retailer and everything is marked up as expected, second hand sales are almost the same price or even more sometimes because musicians think their trash is treasure 100% of the time. The only time you'll find a deal is at a pawnshop where they have absolutely no clue what the value of their product is. And even that's a crap shoot half the time with mainly junk on all the shelves, most if the time its damaged goods. I just want a damn drum machine lol --- Clean Butt Crew <cite>Smashingpmkns posted [p:909544776] in Being a mu...

Probably can't even find a violin for $50 lol my violin is like a grand and I was decent at it when I played more frequently. --- Clean Butt Crew <cite>Smashingpmkns posted [p:909545131] in Being a mu...
