Price for a Aguilar GS412 too much??

Sign in to disble this ad
I was on vacation and found and fell in love with the GS 412. The cab is really beat though handles rusting, carpet torn and falling off, logo missing. They were asking $700, too much? I like the cab but it seems like it should be cheaper in the condition its in? Any insight would be great I'm only in this town for a few more days. Thanks.

It's pretty simple...do you love the $700 or the cab more?

Are you seeing a lot of other used ones for sale?

I wish i was seeing more cabs, prob is I'm out of town. When I get it home with my amps and basses then I end up not liking it I loose who knows how much on a gamble. If it were a sideways deal would not care. But the stuff I played though it at the store it sounded pretty darn good. so I'm looking for a bit more insight.

I got a GS412 a couple of years ago for about $350 or $400 through Craigslist. In decent shape too. I say it's too much, unless you REALLY love it.

I don't know what deals are like in your area, but if you're not sure, I would pass. A deal like this will come up again, and especially if it's in nasty condition, I say skip it.
