    GEOFIO FEEDBACK.

    in Feedback

    Posted

    I bought a lovely Ibanez SR600E from George.

     

    Arrived promptly and well packed with lots of updates from George throughout the process.

     

    I knew everything would be fine after reading all of his glowing feedback on here.

     

    Buy from George with confidence.

     

    Thanks again.

    If you're interested in the bass, I'll happily discuss pricing via PM - which is polite, and certainly the way things used to be done around here! 😉

     

    I've done my research. I am also well aware of some of the various prices that this instrument has sold for over the last few years. I alluded to this in my OP.

     

    There are many reasons why people sell things, and desperation will often drive a lower price to get a quick sale. I'm not desperate for a quick sale, so maybe my asking price is a bit on the high side, I'm not really sure. ACGs are top-quality instruments, hand-made in the UK (Scotland to be precise), and cost a lot of money when bought new. However, their resale value does suffer compared to the obvious choices (Fenders in particular). However, look at what Wals now go for. Or Musicman basses. It was not that long ago that you could get a decent Stingray or Sterling for £700-800. Fender Geddy Lee Jazz basses too. I sold my last one for around £500, now they go for nearly twice that. Supply and demand. Market forces and all that... I know this and you know this, so I'm not sure what you are trying to elicit with your slightly provocative post 🤨

     

    If this bass doesn't attract favourable attention at the current asking price, I may well reduce the price or accept a lower offer. That's how it works. But I'm certainly not trying to profiteer or rip anyone off, I'm simply entering the market at a price that I think is fair and reflects the value of this instrument.

     

    I hope this answers the question :santa:

     

    You've been very diplomatic with your response, I'd have contacted admin and had the comment removed but fair play to you for being so transparent and good luck with your sale, it's a lovely guitar and no doubt worth the asking price.

    Hey @Davy

     

    My primary gripe with the Elf is that it doesn't have the range that we're used to getting from the original,  made in the UK gear.

     

    In fact when I first saw this unit advertised my thinking was that it should have been part of the Elf...but then it wouldn't fit in the girl with the lovely bums back pocket.

     

    How far does this unit go towards making the Elf feel like a "real" Trace Elliot ?

     

    I don't own an Elf so I can't comment unfortunately but there are a few people on facebook(just search trace elliot transit b) who have used it with their Elfs and they may be able to share their experience.
