Sell or Cannibalize?

[Dan0h]

I found this ole thing buried in box. Thought about selling it but at the price they are going for thought I’d pop it open and see if there was any treasures. Hand full of Fairchild J201s and 2n5088s among other things. And it might make for a sleeper enclosure for something really nice.
What would you guys do?
I have zero attachment to this and do not plan on using it again.
You can roast me for my choices made in the younger years, but I bet at least a few of you guys had one too...

I don’t think any of the parts are particularly valuable. Other than maybe the battery door!

I did. It was awful. Seemed like a good idea at the time.

Aw man! I'd buy the cheapest working Blue Box I could find and rehouse them together as a boutique FX33 with extra controls.

It might be fun to take all the electronics out and use the box for something way different, like a Klon with a bass pot or something. Then when you play gigs people will see the Grunge box on your board and wonder why it sounds so good. Well that's how it works in my daydreams...
