Find out how much nad is willing to pay for it and subtract 300 dollars

 

[Krilons Resa]

lol

 

[cthulufhtagn]

if it's a guitar, there are vintage price guides available in book stores, you could just pop in and look it up w/o buying it ...the price depends on the condition though of course

lizard, you complete me. Then again mind my last several musical purchases were DEALS OF THE CENTURY: $1200 amp for $700, $1100 bass for $700, etc. Hooray used! [/trying to save some semblance of my being]

Doomcifer, check Ebay, check various music forums, etc. Go for street value because blue book type shit generally doesn't mean bunk in the real world. Sure a pristine 1962 Fender Jazz Bass is worth $20,000 but who would buy it for that much? What the hell are you trying to sell anyhow? I'll take it.

Word. Thanks man. That's pretty much what I did. Listed my bass and amp on Craigslist.

how about 3 squid?

 

[NAD]

Dammit, I could've used that amp a month ago. Oh well, Yorkville > Fender anyhow.

Are you quitting playing or just getting something else?

 

[NAD]

I happen to use my 50w 1x10 solid state amp several times a week, thankyouverymuch.

Also my 60w tube amp and 400w solid state amp get regular use, the only one collecting dust is 11 years old and broken.

 

[Demilich]

are you still playing shows?

 

[NAD]

Not lately, no band. My last show had 6 people in attendance.

Currently putting together all my own songs and will be forming a band when I complete the demo. Might be done by year end, I'm not in any sort of rush.

 

[Demilich]

[lizard]

move to the west midlands, doom needs someone to write and jam with.
