I recently came across a Guild amp from Hoboken in a local music store. It sounded great for a few minutes and then got very chimey with intense harmonics as the tubes warmed up, kind of like a cyber twin harmonic chimes setting. It looked identical to the 99 J that is currently on Ebay, but without the Guild tag on the front. I know nothing about Guild amps, and despite the incredibly clean physical appearance the sound scared me away, even at $325. I had initially considered offering $275 anyway, but not knowing amps and how much it might cost to fix (if possible) the problem, or how much of the amp was even original, I chickened out. By the time I returned to the store one week later the amp had been sold, and for the full asking price. At this point it no longer matters, but in the interest of potentially beating myself up further for letting this opportunity pass me by I would like to know if anyone has thoughts on what the harmonics were all about, and what a 99 J in excellent condition and full working order is worth. Thanks!
