I don't know if the MF "blem" specials are the same things they sell in their clearance outlet store in Kansas City, which I visited last weekend, but if so, you might not be getting the greatest deal. Or maybe the stuff in that store are the items that are so bad that they can't even sell 'em as "blems". Worst bunch of overpriced junk I've seen lately. I don't mind buying something broken...IF it's a good deal, but 10% off retail for a combo guitar amp with a broken cabinet (and who knows what else wrong) is NOT a good deal. This stuff wasn't discounted heavily to make it worth my money, for it's condition. OTOH, the visit wasn't a total waste of time, since, since there appeared to be patterns in some pieces of gear. Like finding a pile of one particular brand of guitar preamps, all of which with problems like "no power" or something like that. One could safely conclude that these didn't have the best reliability record (or that it was hard for the vendor to return them to the mfg, who knows?).
