Hello all. I sort of inherited a couple of Kustom amps. However I have no idea what they are worth. I have two that are Kustom 100's and one Kustom Hustler. They are all in working order. The Kustom 100's have the Amp(head) and the cab of speakers. I have been searching for a while and haven't found anyone that knows what these things are worth. Any information will be greatly appreciated!!

Well, you'll need to post the serial numbers on the back of the head. A-what? And if it has a tremolo built into it, email me privately =)

The Hustler is a 4x10 self contained head and speaker combination. The K100's from what I read are seperate head and cabinets. Pricing really depends on condition of the electronics, covering, and what color they are. Do the heads have reverb or two channels? What speakers are in the cabinets? What brand of speakers? There are just so many thing to consider when trying to figure a value with the information you've shared.
Black amps generally don't bring as much money as a color amp unless the color has discoloration.

Lol, well I do sit on it, when there might be money to be made. Anyhow, the hustler is sparkley goldish color. And the other two are all black. They all have padding on them, which is in surprisingly good shape. Anybody have any idea of the worth?

Well as time goes on, we're getting a little more infomation on your amps. Still some questions, the K150 head, reverb and tremolo or just a straight two channel amp. Does everything work? Reverb, tremolo, power and polarity switches work, do the switches still light up. The matching cabinet for the 150, what type of speakers, if the head has no effects, chances are good that they have the bass speakers, if the head has effects then the speakers might be the KEI speakers. The cabinet may be marked by the model number plate.
The K100-1 head, basic two channel no effects, and matching cabinet, what does it have for speakers, 2x12 or a single 15? and brand of speakers will have a difference in pricing. JBL's, Altec's, Jensen or CTS brand? Any covers still with the amps or footswitches? Handles and casters in good shape.
The Hustler is cascade, and is a great color to have, but the slant metal face amps don't bring as much as the older plexi face amps.
One big thing to consider is where you are located, and if your willing to ship the amps or just sell locally.
Photo's would help on pricing.
