I sent my Jeff Rowland consonance preamp to him after a boneheaded move on my part. (after increasing the gain, I put the module back in one pin off, powered it up and got to smell some expensive smoke). Called them & was able to talk to Jeff himself. He replaced the module with an upgraded one, upgraded the power supply & brought the entire unit up to factory specs. That is incredible service for a 26 year old preamp.
The preamp now sounds better than it ever has :-)
Factory checkup just before selling...
I've been curious about the number of ads for used equipment that indicate the piece has been checked and certified by the factory. It seems like a great deal of expense, inconvenience (some of our stuff is heavy!!!) and time for the seller to round trip ship it. I recognize the value perceived by the buyer (if it's true), but it kind of a red alert to me whenever I see it, like a "only driven to church on Sundays" ploy.
Would appreciate thoughts and feedback from someone that's either done this, or bought a piece of equipment listed as such. Did they provide paperwork?
Oh, and I've got a rare Hummel listed on eBay. It was made in 1883 and is of Spiderman. Best offer.
Suspicious by nature,
Chris
