Does anyone out there know the value of this amp? I'm on the fence when it comes to selling mine, but I have no idea what they're worth. In fact, I've never seen a 80410. Dave's Guitar has a similar amp (80212) available, but it's pretty beat. Are the 2 comparable?

I received mine as a gift under 2 years ago and it's in brand new condition. The volume has never been past "2" (I don't play in a band or jam with others).

Also, anyone have any idea what the 'T' stands for? I know it's not 'Tremolo'.

T = "Tweed" sorta makes sense. I don't think T = "Twin", because I've seen the 'T' used in smaller Victorias.

I believe the 80 watt 4-10 was a model Victoria built for Buddy Guy, at least he used or promoted it for a short time.
I owned both the 80 watt 2-12 and 45 watt 2-12 models. I paid $1200.00 each which was a great buy in a much better economy. What it's worth and what you could sell it for are probably two different figures, especially in this enviornment. With a bit of luck it might get $1800.00, given that it's mint. Just one amp jukies guesstimate price.

Info is appreciated. I read somewhere on the weekend that it was Guy's roadies that came up with the idea behind the 80410 - they needed the Bassman configuration, but with more power.

Those were (maybe still are?) the house amps at Buddy Guy's Legends on Wabash in Chicago. The "T" stands for Tweed. Tough time to be trying to sell, I'd stash it for a year before I'd take the lowball money on something that rare.

I know, but I could use the funds to pay down some more debt I managed to create. That being said, I won't be accepting any lowball offers. I'd be happy with something in the $1500-1600 range, but I'm not holding my breath.
