I've recently been struggling with my muse and I figure I should possibly restart and rethink what I'm doing. I love music, I am an aspiring producer(not a very good one). All the same I love music, the creation of music etc.

My main idea as of the moment is to resell top-dollar music equipment. This has proven to have some very large flaws in it as a whole. This however is something I'd still like to do, so instead of abandoning the entire idea, I've reinvented it:

1st Site: Sell Drum Machines + Drum Sample CD's
2nd Site: Sell Studio Monitors + Headphones
3rd Site: Sell Microphones + Accessories
4th Site: Sell Music Production Software (FL, Reason, Cubase etc.) + Sample CD's
5th Site: Keyboard Controllers

Thoughts? Suggestions? etc.

what about an information product....?

you could just put together an article on picking the right components to buy and hooking it all up yourself. You mention high end, what about putting together a document that guides the user on a budget to configure inexpensive components for optimal professional grade performances?

one of the problems I see time and time again on this forum is people trying to sell high priced items when they have no credibility in the market. No offense, but if I'm dropping hundreds or thousands of dollars on some crap, I'm gonna do it w/ someone I know and trust in case the components aren't what I like.

Ferriss said it himself in the book, even money back guarantees aren't enough now. You're basically saying, if you don't like it - here's a chore instead, mail it back and you'll get a refund. Nobody wants to deal with that.

If you understand this niche, take advantage of your knowledge, which is much more valuable and easier to make money off of. How about a review site for these components that benchmarks them to give an actual output of quality?

I dunno much about the market, but I think you might be using your experience to less of it's full potential.
