Where can I sell a bass online?

Sign in to disble this ad
Where can I sell a bass that doesn't require me to put money up front to do so?

Is there anywhere besides Craig's List?

Craigslist is the best IMO. I have sold 4 or 5 basses on CL without any issues.

And here too. I sold my Bongo in a week thanks to TB.

Step up and donate $20 to support TB - looking at the gear in your profile, it shouldn't be too big of a burden.

Karma, ya dig?

I've had quite good luck selling basses here on TB. It sometimes takes a while for the right person to see it, but if you're prepared to leave it up for a week or two, and your price is reasonable, it's well worth the $20.

When I need to or want to move something fast, I use Ebay. But that's not too often, if I can help it.

Weird, they don't list Fender as a brand that they buy.

I'm assuming you mean eBay. Unfortunately it's still the #1 place to sell anything. But CL is coming on strong, and it's still free. The TB classifieds also rocks, but you have to be a supporting member.
