Well I've never heard it live but I just saw and bought a new Henriksen JazzAmp 310 from a reputable 3rd party retailer on Amazon for $599 - that's $500 off the $1099 sticker. What gives?
Curiously the 310 *extension cabinet* retails for $599 so I did a triple take on the description. I figure they're either going to ship me a mis-priced amp or a cabinet that was advertised as an amp. btw there's 1 more for sale as I write... hee hee.
Anybody have experience with this amp willing to share comments on it?Last edited by HighSnows; 03-29-2018 at 12:20 PM.

I love it! I got mine used on ebay for the same price. yours is new? that’s great. It is literally the perfect amp for me
-
They are great amps. The new 310 has a gain knob too which you'll probably find useful if you run different guitars through it. Not for actual distortion or anything, but just a bit of edge/bite.
-
That can't be right, but let's hope it is! What a deal!

Was it through Djangobooks? Man, I would feel bad for Michael if he lost half a grand for a mis-priced listing on an external site.
-
Well yeah, I just took a look and sure 'nuff there's one more. Oh the temptation....

Nope, Django's is out there for $999 Originally Posted by omphalopsychos

600 new is insane, but you can get used for that price without much difficulty. At least I did

It's gonzo! There were only 2 this morning at $599, both sold now. Originally Posted by sgcim

HI, ok so yesterday i went and checked for fun and there were two dealers with the $599 price, one was OPs dealer and another with 599 delivered out the door no tax. i pulled the trigger and bought the 310, should be here Wednesday. I went and checked again and they were all gone at that price, both dealers.
-
Fantastic... and you only owe me a $300 finders fee so you’re still saving big time! Originally Posted by jazzgtrl4

You’ll be playing yours while mine hangs at FedEx, awaiting my return from travels to Rudy’s NY...

Haha. Ya look forward to getting it. thanks for the heads up!! Originally Posted by HighSnows

fyi, just got the Henriksen 310...........................Extension Cabnet, for 599. back it goes, freaking lame this companies Amazon page has it a the Henriksen 310 and pictures of the 310..NOT the extension cabinet. No where did it say extension cab. OP you saw that too huh? i bought it from the cheaper seller... its BS.
-
Bummer but I figured the odds were pretty high we’d receive cabs. I won’t actually see the box until MON but assume it will be the extention cab. Like you I bought from the tax free seller. At least we won’t pay any shipping on this return, and of course I’ll cancel my Finders Fee invoice. Until the next Great Deal! Originally Posted by jazzgtrl4

Bummer guys. The good news is you can find a used one for that price

That's what I was worried about, sorry it didn't pan out for you guys. I figured it was a mistake, either they had the ad wrong for the speaker, OR they didn't know that they had the speaker's price for the actual amp. Roll of the dice as they say. I was going to contact them to check, but then I figured if it were the latter, they'd discover the pricing error and pull the ad. So I bowed out. (Besides having two too many amps already.) Glad you guys can return them. Funny, I don't see those ads now by selecting "Completed." Originally Posted by jazzgtrl4

Sorry, guys. Whenever it's too good to be true...
I bought a Beauregard MB online for 5K from some place in Texas, and they told me it was a mistake!

Ebay bidding can be strange, especially for jazz items that aren't well known outside the small world of jazz guitar. Henriksen isn't quite as famous as Marshall in the world of rock guitar.
Sometimes you can get things very cheap on ebay. I've done it, but it does require some diligence, and often the use of a sniping service. I snipe everything I bid on, and that is a double-edged sword. I got my Wu 18" archtop at a very low price with a snipe, and I didn't really want it that badly at the time. But every cloud has a silver lining, or at least hailstones. 
Someone got a good deal on that Henriksen.

Just returned from travels and opened the Henriksen box to find I indeed received a Jazz Amp 310, not the cab!
Because of your experience, jazzgtrl4, I had my return ship label with me, certain I was getting the cab.
On rare occasion "too good to be true" is actually true. But Don't tell the kids. Better to hold with the standard advise.
...don't know why that's upside down?Last edited by HighSnows; 04-09-2018 at 08:50 AM.
