It's a desktop model of the Grateful Dead's Wall of Sound.
Hand made. Has a Bluetooth speaker in it. Each one is slightly different because of the handmade variability of this.
I have the perfect spot for this, and I think $150 is a fair price, considering the time this creator must have to put into these.
I almost never spend money on myself, so I'm thinking of treating myself.
However, I may wait a bit, because I've read that this guy is trying to figure out a way to move away from having one Bluetooth speaker of mid-quality, to having high quality sound coming out of EACH of the speakers in the model.

I don't play guitar, but I'll buy one and bring it, along with the wall of sound display, and we can sit around and look at the guitar and the wall of sound display!!
Finally, some excitement!
Harker
(18,077 posts)I'll get some bongos.
LuckyCharms
(23,036 posts)I don't drink, but if you tell me your favorite alcoholic beverage, I'll buy some for you and bring that too!
We can talk about the Grateful Dead for hours and hours! I have so much I can tell you...you'll love it! HOURS Harker!
I'm so happy you are buying this mini wall of sound for me!
Harker
(18,077 posts)Something about a train and cocaine... I can't wait to learn all about them! I drove past Haight and Asbury once, even.
German, Irish, or British beer, please!
Can I blast Sinatra while you tell me all about the Grateful Dead!
LuckyCharms
(23,036 posts)Tell you what...let's skip talking about the Grateful Dead, and just talk about Sinatra.

Holy cow, you would have thought I gave her a billion dollars. I could do no wrong in her eyes after that.

C'mon!

LuckyCharms
(23,036 posts)The financial situation here is week-to-week, just like most other people!
If I had a million bucks, I certainly would not be wearing the clothes I wear!
So, are you going to buy me this thing or not?
True Dough
(27,206 posts)and I made the goal $1 million. We'll get you there one way or another, Lucky!

(10,055 posts)Whats your favorite Jerry solo? Mine is the diminished transition from Help on the Way into Slipknot. I used to be able to play it pretty good but its been a while now and I dont play as much as I used to.
LuckyCharms
(23,036 posts)1) I'm sure you've heard this a million times, but Bill Graham's intoduction here into Help on the Way always makes me smile as they come in with their instruments one by one.
2) One of my favorite Jerry solos is this one from Row Jimmy in 1977 starting at 4:00 and ending at 6:25. It always gives me goosebumps. Very sweet and emotional.
Niagara
(12,045 posts)I would absolutely buy it for you.
LuckyCharms
(23,036 posts)Marthe flat out refused me, and Harker said he will only buy me this if I bring him some expensive beer.
So, a big THANK YOU! Even if you don't have the $150, it's the thought that counts!
