jorisj Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 Hello, I am currently eying a 1967 Mustang Bass from Andy Baxter's shop, but I was wondering if 2500 pounds is a realistic price for a Vintage Mustang Bass or not? I have seen some go on this platform for 1200, but also for 2200. And the one on his site looks in very nice condition. FYI: I am based in Belgium, and vintage Mustang offering is quite limited here... joris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burno70 Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 I've not seen a vintage Mustang priced that highly before...but then again I've not seen one that old for sale either so it could be a fair price. If you like the bass but not the price why not contact the shop and haggle? You never know. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gareth Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Andys basses are retail prices i sold a 67 for £1200 two years ago i sense that the popularity of mustangs has increased, along with their prices since then 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jorisj Posted April 3, 2019 Author Share Posted April 3, 2019 Ok, many thanks! I’ll just wait for one to pop up here then. I can understand prices go up, but paying double in 2 years time is a bit much 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sibob Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 (edited) It’s not really fair comparison. Basschat is all private sellers, Andy Baxter is a dealer, you would expect to pay more. ‘67 + two years instrument inflation from above private pricing + dealer pricing + custom colour = £2500 about right IMO Would it be cheaper privately, almost certainly, but you have to wait and know where to look Si Edited April 3, 2019 by Sibob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
