How does a new know what to buy on Craigslist

Sign in to disble this ad
I thought I would check CL for a used amp and everything seems like a good deal to me because I dont know what anything is worth. Im thinking the ibanez with the amp for $150 sounds great .Should I buy this just to have a spare bass around ? Does anyone see anything I should look at ?

I used to have an Ibanez just like that. For 150 it really isnt a bad bass at all. I found it really comfortable for slap and its extremely light.

Sorry, I didn't notice a budget in your OP. 8-10" cabs usually go for $800-1000 brand new. A 500 watt head would be around another $600-800.
