So The Crate Shockwave head is now selling for $250 at all internet retailers.

That pisses me off.


In the past year, I've bought 2 of those heads at about $800 total

So I over paid about 300 dollars, and one of the heads was used.

Not only did I over pay, but the value of the amps I bought has significantly decreased. I'd be lucky to get 200$ each for them on the used market now.


how the fuck can Crate depreciate their customers like that?

Just goes to show you how gready companies are. They can cut $400 off the price of a 650 dollar amp, and still make enough profit to justify selling.

That low price had BETTER be because they are discontinuing them.

Ouch. Crate's a terrible company anyways.

Aside from this amp, I agree.

That's what you get for buying Crates.

are you trying to sell it or something?

Why the fuck did you buy a crate?!?!?

The only Crate that seems to somewhat hold its value is the voodoo line.

those are nice

And even then you can find 'em cheap.

nah I'm not trying to sell it.


And yea, I know there aren't to many crate fans here, but The shockwave is right up there with the blue voodoo. If I wanted the blue voodoo, I could have bought it.

It cost close to the same amount, but I like the sound better.
