Is this a good price for UA 6176?

I stopped by guitar center and someone just turned in a UA 6176 with no rack rash and the owners manual..


A friend of mine works there and said I could pick it up for 1150 plus tax..

I want one of these channel strips and for that price.. Im thinking I should step on it..

Any fellow sluts care to indulge me on things I should look for on this particular model.. serial number. (prod date) anything at all..


areas of wear and tear I should look for..

uh, which GC was that again? i'd love to have a second one at that price. don't know a thing about the model numbers though. i use the "1176" side just as much as the "610" side

UH YEAH!! Crap, I paid $1499 for my UA LA-610....Damn you
fuuck fuuck

BTW great sounding pre......I just wish I had the 1176 side on the comp. Not that the T4 side doesn't sound good, it does, I just love the setup of the 1176's controls.

I just called them, gave them my credit card, and asked them to ship it to me. Thanks for the great deal.

No seriously, I didn't call, it's a very good deal, go buy it now!

When you say "someone just turned in", you mean "used" right? Cause I work at Guitar Center and would have bought that in a heartbeat. If it was used, then that price is about right.

Maybe you should have an "open mind" about that law?
It could benefit you someday, no?
I mean, the PD aint gonna do nothin for you if your stuff is gone! (Trust me)

(I assume that has something to do with it, I dont know what law you are talking about)

Sounds like you had a crappy experience..


My Escalade got stolen and when returned (less the 7k wheels and 4k sound system) I was a bit upset thing so I know where your coming from..


but my studio is adjacent to my home.. and once you get past him..






then you get to deal with me.. oh yeah.. I sleep with them on both sides of the bed tutt
