a Used Bongo bass? $$$$?

[ConnorBass]

Hey guys, I'm looking to buy this used 2005 HS Bongo 5-string. Has a few dings and scratches on the back and the headstock. I really don't know how much I should pay for it. What is normally the average price of a used bongo in used condition? Thanks

Try searching the classifieds and finding old sale threads for Bongos.

Seems $1000 - $1100 should be a pretty fair price. If you can get it for less go for it!

There's a Bongo 5'er at a local misc store near me. Silver in color, HH. Condition is good, to VG. No chips, need a cleaning, strings are dead, set up decent, priced about $1200.

I just sold mine for $1000 on Ebay. I paid $1100... and mine was *perfect*.

What's it worth, or what should I buy it for threads really aren't allowed unless you're a supporting member.

Doesn't take much to swap "hey guys I may buy" for "hey guys Ima lookin' to sell"

"What's it worth" questions on instruments you wish to purchase are currently allowed- just not one on those you wish to sell. I've tried to have this clarified in the rules for a while now.
