Default FOUND: Guitar amp on Union Street
Sup...I found an amp sitting in a bus stop outside sommerfield on union street, on tuesday at 5am...its an old, small light weight 5 watt amp no brand name on it...not really worth anything other than maybe sentimental value...if you have lost or had an amp stolen I'd be happy to return it to you upon a matching description (It has some very unique qualities)...if no...scoooooped!!!!

cheers

Black, it has a speaker, and some control knobby things, oh and a handle. there's a pint of semi skimmed, a bag of ready salted crisps and two butteries in the back.

Hey, I think it was good of you to lug the amp home and make an attempt at getting it back to its owner.

That said, if my amp was lost or stolen my first port of call would be the police rather than here, maybe you should just hand it in at Queen Street?

Yeah, would be a good idea to take it to the cop shop. If no-one claims it within 3 months is it? It's yours.
