value

Hello, Can anyone please help me to find more information on this eagle bass, can’t find anything on google. Is there any value in it?

Jus' been really digging this look lately (not my photo)

In 1997 my partner Jimmy Jackson (Trailer Park Troubadours) and I were leaning on my Airstream trailer after a Fair gig drinking coffee. I said…”man wouldn’t it be cool if somebody made a guitar like this trailer. Little did I know he was listening and before you know it Epiphone was building...

Every now and then there is a product that comes along and punches way above its price tag. Gear that by all means is comparable to other products costing twice (or more) what this one does new. What message does this send to you as a consumer? Is the high quality, low cost product...

Hi Everyone, I have a Warwick FNA Jazzman 5 string, I believe its a 2004 model. It's in good shape. I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions regarding the value of the bass today?

Ok, so you've got a few high-end basses and there's nothing wrong with them. You dig the tone, how they play and they're worth every penny you paid....... Then you've got this lesser, maybe even crappy bass that might be the red-headed stepchild of anyone else's bass collection but you love it...

My daughter came home from college and expressed interest in the bass, so I gave her my only bass (Ibanez Gio) and now I am looking for something to replace it with. I found this one on EBay and am wondering exactly what model it is and what it's worth. ibanez sdgr bass | eBay The serial...

Hello everyone I know nothing about this brand so if anybody can help me out by letting me know what I got and what it’s worth I’d appreciate any info and advice !

Just purchased this late 70s Guild b301 online from Cream City Music in Brookfield, Wisconsin. It was only listed a couple of days ago and already had 24 people watching it and 2 bidders, so I paid the asking price because it was reasonable, in my estimation. $700 plus $50 shipping. The seller...

Hey folks, I’m looking at a 1994 Yamaha TRB-4P for sale in my town. It’s all original with a P/J setup and piezo. Neck through. In good condition for its age and comes with a case. I haven’t played it yet since I’m out of town for work. Can anyone offer some more details on this model? A good...

I bought my Traynor SB500H (& SB200H) in New York. It replaced a Little Mark head. If you haven't heard this little Traynor head (or the smaller SB200H) try to get to audition one. (If, like me, you're in the UK, you'll have to skip auditioning and take my word for it! It's virtually impossible...

I’m curious what the TB collective thinks about being on the seller end of inexpensive basses that are cheap on the used market, but play SO great... My Yamaha BB200 comes to mind: got it for $100CAD with a hard case, but it’s a killer player with great action, and weighs UNDER 8 lbs, which is...

Hey, guys. So I currently have this 2 knob bass that's volume/volume. Both of the pots are 250k... I want to replace them with 2 concentric knobs for a stacked volume+tone on both. From what I've heard, this is a common upgrade on Jazz basses (although this is not a Jazz). So now technically I...

I recently picked up a fender p midnight special. Beautiful bass, and probably the rarest thing I own. One thing I notice, however, is that the A string sits very high coming off the nut, which Im worried may effect sustain, and also, just doesn't look good imo. Would adding a string tree...

Hi, I was wondering if I could get some help identifying a Fender Jazz bass guitar that was given to my husband? He plays the drums but someone gave him a guitar and we are trying to find out more about it. We know it is a Fender Jazz bass and the serial number is E855231. But that is all we...

I'm starting here on TB because our membership seems to be both knowledgeable about a plethora of subjects and brutally honest, and because Geddy Lee is one of our perennial bass heroes. I'll turn to an autograph specialist/professional maybe after you guys and gals weigh in. Initially, I trust...

Short version, I have my eye on a German made Warwick Standard STD for $900. It has some scratches and dings which I do t care about if it’s bringing the price down. Doing my own search I can only find German made Warwicks for around $2,000. So it seems great to me. I am not sure what the...

I bought it in 1977 from an older gentleman who played in a Jazz Quartet. It's in good shape with a few nicks but I really don't know much about it. I only took it on a few gigs when we did a couple jazz numbers several years ago. When my wife and I retire next year, we may downsize so I will...

Last year I purchased a four-string Warwick Streamer Standard, manufactured in Germany in 2000, via Reverb.com, only to find out later that the neck has a twist near the head stock. The E-string side lifts away from the player. I paid $600. Warwick told me that a replacement neck would cost just...

I reviewed the Laney Mico Bass Amp on MF back in March. I did so to inform people of my experience with the product. It was really bad. My review was published by MF. I saw some info about the product today and decided to see if anyone else added their experience. The product page asked for...

Hello. So, I'm planning to build a passive stingray, with a G&L style "OMG" mode switch and a Tonestyler, to get the clearest and liveliest tones out of it without active circuitry. I remember I've read that most of the signature "color" the preamp gives comes from a specific resistor Leo...

I fell in love with a Yamaha RBX765a while lookomg for my first bass. It got sold before I could earn the cash for it. There's one listed on Reverb for $150 USD (including shipping, price was dropped from $250). It's got a few problems: a stripped truss rod and a broken nut. The nut I'm not...

Hi, I have a guitar with passive pickups and Aguilar OBP-3 preamp. it's wired as 250K M/N blend -> 500K volume -> preamp I'm thinking of adding a passive mode and rewiring it to two volumes and add a passive tone. but not sure what pot values I should use for volumes and tone. previously I...

Hi, can anybody help me to determine the pedigree of this bow? See pictures below. I think it is School of Dodd.

Hello, I am curious about the newer Inodesian made Cirrus basses ( not BXP, REAL Peavey cirrus). I believe Peavey has moved production to Indonesia since the USA factory was shut down.. I hear that they are the same, if not better quality than the older USA models.. is this true? I have the...

Bought this awhile back from here and I have always been impressed with the MIA offerings from Peavey, whether it be the Foundations or Furys, etc. Just prefer other instruments in my stable and no longer need to keep this around for a bass with just flats, as my primary is sporting flats...

How do TB members go about research before buying or selling gear. I'd like to know if there are any resources out there I don't know about, or that may be helpful to other forum members. Ultimate goal here is to get together a list of resources to preempt the "What's my bass/pedal/whatever...

ok guys i have a question. I have a Lakland 55-94 Deluxe sunburst made in 2005 by the serial. I bought it in 2008, i used to play a lot when i was younger so i thought i would pick it up again. The thing is that i just got it out and haven't played it since and now i think that's a lot of bass...

My wife wants me to teach her to play bass this summer on my Fender Mustang RI. Being a guitarist, I've kept it around for direct recording and am currently without a bass amp. I'd like to get a good, no-frills amp in the $300 range for a used amp. Small is good, but would like it to be...

I have a heavily modified and upgraded Fender Kingman acoustic bass guitar. Even trade for a high end compressor.

I was curious what people think the value of SWR amps are these days. I think they are excellent amps. I have a SWR Baby Blue II Combo (1993) which has an all-tube preamp and it sounds pretty darn good! Someone offered me to trade for a Markbass NY 121 cab, which is one I've been eyeballing (on...

I played my AMPEG AMUB 1 fretless for years. Don't know its value. Im ready to let it go. The Serial No. is 019, so its very early. I bought it 48 years ago. Its in good shape, some paint dings and a pick guard repair. I added a Seymore Duncan pick up in the 90s and still have the original...

After some research I'm down to 3 amp possibilities now, and do not have the ability to demo the GK's and have some questions... Loudness: In terms of actual loudness, how does the BG250-112 stack up to the GK MB110 or the MB112? From a price standpoint the BG250 and MB110 are the same price...

I know that this is rather subjective question and I know that some folks will say it only matters how well the instrument plays or that 1978 is not really vintage but here is my hypothetical question. Say there was a pre 1980 instrument that is in fantastic shape with original case. It's not a...

The hunt for vintage Fenders continues! Saw this one on Reverb and it keeps nagging at me. Pretty much everything changed, but original wood and rosewood neck w/ clay dots looks very sweet. I know refins halve the value. Pickups, bridge, pots replaced maybe knock off another $2k? Thinking this...

What should a mid 90s Warwick Streamer Bolt On 5 string be valued at? Maple body. Found one for sale, but not sure if the $2500 ask seems steep..... thanks!

Was thinking of trading my Nintendo Switch for an Ibanez Ergodyne EDC 710 Bass with gig bag. I know these have been out of production for a few years, I like Ibanez basses, Whats your thoughts on this bass ? Whats the Value these days ?

It would be hard to justify my secret desire for an NYC to my spouse, so how about the investment angle? Any data points out there? I am thinking at $5k, the potential for tincreasing prices is not there .
