Yep.  It's Chester in da house!!

Hope you guys are all well.  I was watching the We're Stars vid we made a few years back (ok, more than a few - lol) and thought how great it would be to own a 3TM again. I had two at one point. Hairston built my first and MJmP my second. Also bought a Monstercab and find I'm missing them. 

Anyone selling?

Greets peeps!!

Hey CJT, great to hear from you :wavingsmiley: , it's been a while.  Do you need a US or EU version?  or are 3TMs all MDRT? (thus it doesn't matter.

Was it 14 years ago? maybe even longer, still sounds great

I knew this place was full of crazy people, but not that much!  :adabig:  :adabig:  :adabig:

Respect, guys!

To see Jurrie in that video is awesome!
And that's nice to see some users faces (Kim, Peter, Chester...)!
On the run again!

About a 3TM, MP-1 reached crazy prices in the market today....5-6-700 euro..or even more.
No sense at all.

I paid 180 euros for my MP-1 in 2016 and then MJMP modified and refurbished it, but I did not spend all the money some people asks today for 30 years old units with no refurbishment that can explode in your face after 15 minutes from being turned on.
On the run again!

Hey Max, yeah MP-1s are getting expensive (as you say), although they don't tend to explode in you face so much as just not work :facepalm: .  By now, they all need a new battery, but then other issues...  How many did DJC go through just to find one or 2 that worked ok(ish).

Then again, 3TMs have already had a bit of work, maybe they are more reliable?

@CTJ, you might be better off sourcing a decent MP-1 and getting it 3TM modded?  That way all the other things can be fixed (battery mod, noise mod, rear jack mod, MDRT).  But who knows, someone may have a 3TM for sale??

Hey CTJ,

   Good to hear from you again man! Seller's remorse sucks, especially these days. Prices of ADA gear that's working is ridiculous. Then again, everything is way more expensive these days. Good luck with the search.

(No...my 3TM isn't for sale)
