So you are a great salesman and a shitty bank manager.

But I'm also starting up a new loan shark business and with Billie's Fender addiction It's going to take off really soon  

[Jesus of Seneca]

I love lil' vicky, but given that they go for at least a grand on ebay (without being related to anyone famous), I stand no chance in hell

Very important to point out - no earring so this video isn't brand new. Truth is he spent so much money on his expensive diamond earring he has had to liquidate all his guitars and equipment.

How the fuck did I miss he started wearing an earring? 

[Chin for a Day]

The garage sale is live. As expected, I won't be owning any of Billie's equipment.

If anyone was wondering, like me, the total sale would come to over $220K. There is quite a bit that is already sold

[lizziebix]

The prices are crazy and so is the amount already sold.

[AmyxLongview]

Only 3 Juniors for sale. That's probably about 1% of his Junior collection

I’m not surprised the guitars are selling, they’re beautiful. The LPJ Sunburst, is that Floyd or Mojo or another one? The black and silver Gretsch was one I loved.

Neither. He would never sell Floyd!

The 64 strat hasn't sold yet, who wants to go in on it with me.

The 18,000 one? No wonder it hasn't sold yet 

But actually the prices aren't over the top. All these are valuable instruments/gear, it's not just celebrity added value.

I was hoping for one thing I can afford. I didn't expect it, but yes, I agree. The prices are not outrageous 

[AndrewWalker]

Managed to pick up the 1976 Marshall JMP! Was hoping to grab one of the Gibsons, but the price was more than I could justify. This more than makes up for it though!

hmm, I didn't know that Billie was selling off so much studio stuff. the one that surprised me was the mixer that they used on RevRad. Billie liked it enough to pick that one to move from Jingletown to Otis, and seeing as how that was the main part of Otis, does that mean that Green Day has given up on Otis already? or maybe they just bought a new mixer for Otis. I wonder if any of this has anything to do with them recording a new album... They could be getting rid of some old stuff to buy new stuff for a better sound on the next record, or maybe they're getting rid of Otis to go down to a bigger studio in LA

[WorryRock02]

Almost sold out. Just 25 items left! Wow!

I will...with about 16 other people . That's literally greater than my own net worth, haha.

Make a video with the amp! Also let us know what the settings are on the top of the amp

[pacejunkie punk]

You get his autograph too on a certificate of authenticity which is awesome.

Yeah...I was hoping at least something would be affordable for some of us.

Actually it would be an awesome investment. The prices will only go up

Well I was really tempted to use the money I had set aside for The Oldests tuition next semester but I would still need $8,500 more so it seemed a mute point

he has handed the stuff to reverb people so settings may not be still set to whatever Billie had em on

Yeah, I'll definitely try to get a video up at some point after it arrives! I've been meaning to do a Homecoming cover for a while so that will give me a great opportunity to give the amp a proper test.

There's a sticker on the top of the amp indicating the way he had the controls dialled in.

Cool even better 

I know someone who bought one of Billy Corgan’s amp from MCIS he had on his reverb store but the amp came with everything turned to 0 no sticker but after a while of playing around he says he got it to almost the setting 

[blueshadows]

@AndrewWalker congrats! glad you got something! Really cool to see a fan get their hands on one of these 

[WhiteTim]

I don’t see the console selling and some of the other items as well I can see the Strat selling

Thank you! Hopefully others also got an opportunity to pick some stuff up and it didn't all go to collectors.

[Nick854]

I got the Hiwatt combo.  Anyone else get anything?
