Was planning to list it for sale somewhere, but no idea what to price it at. Any idea? Is it even worth someone's time fixing it up?

If you don't understand the difference between a toaster and the front end of an amplifier, then you've outed yourself.

Also, no. Nobody tests their toaster when they plug it in.

No, everyone tests their toasters when they plug them in. Only the dead don't report results, so the results are biased towards the living.

Please tell me WTF is your problem with maintaining a guitar?

Lol. If someone plugged in a shorted toaster, it would trip a breaker at worst. But survivorship bias is an awesome mental gymnastic. 8/10.

And nobody is arguing against maintaining a guitar. Just that you are being dumb. And maybe are a troll.

You mean you have no respect for electrical safety? None whatsoever? So you'd be okay if someone threw a live toaster in your bathtub?... 🤔

Bruh, get real, you have no respect for electrical safety. Go screw an outlet if you're so confident..

Gee, the bathtub isn't the same as plugging it into the wall. Is it?

No, it's not. And you know it's not. But you probably don't know why it's not.

Or you are a troll.

Or perhaps there are already videos about such risks?
