lefrash Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Its a fender aerodyne Jazz bass. I bought it off ebay in 2008 (the serial number suggests 2006-2008) and got it for £440 delivered. These seem to be really expensive these days. am I missing something? Do I have an older less desirable model? Its all stock, and it has its dings here and there - and from the pictures its absolutely filthy too! Im not planning on selling it at all, but I'm really just wondering whether this has perhaps kept its value quite well. Any thoughts on it? Ignore the gaffa tape too.... that was a quick gig repair that has stayed!

lefrash Posted November 3, 2012 Author Share Posted November 3, 2012 Geeez I'm really gonna have to give this a wipe down before taking it out in public again!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lozz196 Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Well the ones I`ve seen sold on here have gone for between £500 and £600. I bought a new one in 2008 and it was abut £600. Now they are a lot more, £765. I think the one you have is a non-export model - correct me if I`m wrong, Aero-knowledge-people - so possibly may be worth a bit more than the regular 2nd hand prices.

pietruszka Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Oooh, I dunno, not in that colour. I tell you what, seeing as it's you, I'll give you £50. Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iiipopes Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Nice. Very nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackers Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Yep, that is indeed a non-export model, which IMO are much nicer as they have a proper jack socket, none of that start input rubbish In my experience their value varies a little. I have owned and sold 2 in the last 2 years, the first I bought for 450 and sold for 500, and the other I bought for 525 and sold for 420. I would say 450-500 being a good starting point.

Pinball Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Well it is a very pretty bass so it it plays as good as it looks you should be happy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lefrash Posted November 4, 2012 Author Share Posted November 4, 2012 Well thank you lads! It is very nice, and it covers all my bassing needs so dont really feel the need to change it any time soon. Apart from the filthiness and gaffa tape, its in pretty good condition too. Only two chips that are noticeable. Its quite interesting though that this seems to have held its value! If I did sell it and got atleast what I paid for it I would be gobsmacked - but thats what you all seem to be saying, so I'l beleive you! haha Cheers for the help guys!
