Amps are all new. Instruments half and half.
pedals half and half as well.

In 50 years or so I've probably only bought new about a dozen times. I don't buy online, I like to try before I buy.
And I don't buy the sort of disposable rubbish that's so popular these days.

I've had two amps from the tip.
Think I only have a couple of pedals that are new. Half my pedals are home made plus all cables...and my slide.
High Cost - Second Hand
When I sold on a MkII Superlead, I was looking to replace it with a 1w Marshall. I couldn't find any at the right price, and ended up just buying a DSL1 from a clearance in Dawson's.
Again, guitars a mix of new and second hand. My 75 reissue jazz was a freebie for helping a mate get a job. Don't feel bad for him, he still has 3 Rics.
If I worked out how much I would have paid for my current gear if I bought new, I must have saved a fortune!
Why ? Some ‘used’ sales are unrealistic, in terms of them being quite close to new prices.
Big purchases (e.g. Kemper) always buy new.
