    For Sale Need advice-how do I sell an Amp -I'm not a musician!!!

    On Reverb, you just don't fill in the section for accepts offers, or something like that. It should be apparent when you're posting. I haven't sold for a long time on Reverb, so I don't remember the details, but the option exists.

    For Sale Need advice-how do I sell an Amp -I'm not a musician!!!

    Yes, generally, things like Anvil cases, etc. don't add much to the deal when selling a used amp. I would be interested in buying it, I would love to have another Boogie. Is there any way you can find a less expensive shipping option; that seems excessive, even post-COVID shipping rates. I would...

    For Sale Need advice-how do I sell an Amp -I'm not a musician!!!

    It might need some De-oxit sprayed in the pots, etc., but it should be fine. I used to have a Mark 1 Mesa Boogie that I eventually sold because it was so heavy, I got tired of carrying it up and down three flights of stairs every time I gigged. But I miss it so much. Just curious, not sure...

    For Sale Need advice-how do I sell an Amp -I'm not a musician!!!

    It’s true, they it’s easier to sell on consignment, but you’ll lose 25% or possibly more. Selling on Reverb is actually pretty easy; they do take 9%, but you can set parameters that you won’t accept offers, so no one will be able to low ball you. You can price it fairly and wait for a buyer...

    For Sale Mesa Boogie Mark III Simul Class SN 25519 for Sale $4000 (OBO)

    Thanks, I think it’s an amazing specimen. But too nice to gig. And only can afford to own amps for gigging. I hope someone takes a liking to it soon.

    Mark 3 simul-class for sale question

    when I was trying the Badger, when it first came out, our Sound Pure Music in NC, someone said, it sounds more Marshall than a modern Marshall. But I think it’s really maybe more of its own thing. Maybe a touch of Vox, done Marshall. It’s a nice amp, but not on the level of a Bludotone.

    Mark 3 simul-class for sale question

    Thanks. Yes, I have a high plate skyline with NOS parts, Vox grill cloth, and suede covering in the classic Dumble style. Along with a Bludotone ‘Dumble’ cab with a 90 watt Celestion alnico cream back. And the loopalator. It’s the reason I’m selling the Suhr badger, the 5e3, and mark 3...

    Mark 3 simul-class for sale question

    Really interesting. I've known Rich for many years now and Mike has done mods on my Mark 1 (now sold), but when I got this amp, and it was after the Gibson buyout, Rich said they were no longer doing mods, and specifically that Mike was not doing mods. I wonder what the inside story is on this...

    Mark 3 simul-class for sale question

    I think I saw your sold listing, I remember the road case. that's the one I was using as the reference point for the 4K sold listing. The other two listings were for $3 and $3+ K sold prices. and none were even remotely close to the condition of mine. Mine has the spare tube too. ;-) I...

    Mark 3 simul-class for sale question

    Great points. When I bought this simul-class, I called Rich Duvall, at Mesa to get the mods done, and he told me that now that Gibson is in charge, Mesa (and more specifically Mike Bendanelli) is no longer doing any mods. So I was unable to get the mods done by Mesa. The main point for me with...

    That's a great idea. I really appreciate all the responses here. Thanks so much to everyone.

    Mark 3 simul-class for sale question

    Thanks for the appraisal. It's really like it came out of time capsule, every single piece of original paperwork included. I know that three sold on Reverb for 3000 to 4000, so they are being sold at that price, those were sold listings. And mine is much nicer than the one that sold for 4K on...

    Mark 3 simul-class for sale question

    I play it and I play it and it sounds amazing. Only the way a boogie can. Maybe I’ll post on reverb, which I don’t really want to do, or drop the price and let it go.

    Mark 3 simul-class for sale question

    I just checked sold listings on Reverb and found three amps exactly like mine, but no where near as good condition and not with the original case and paperwork. They sold between 3K and 4K. Based on those sold listings, I think mine is in that ballpark and much nicer, so I think I'll hold out. I...

    Mark 3 simul-class for sale question

    Hi everyone, I am a new member and new to forums in general. I became a supporting member and I posted my Mark 3 Simul-Class for sale. It is a near mint walnut and wicker with all original paperwork, warranty etc., like it came out of a Time Machine. I have not had one reply and I wonder if I...

    For Sale Mesa Boogie Mark III Simul Class SN 25519 for Sale $4000 (OBO)

    (Addendum: Thank you members for suggestions and advice on this amp. I did check Reverb sold listings and there were three of the same amps as mine, same finish etc. They sold for 3000, 3277, and 4000. Mine is much nicer than all three of these by far and has all original paperwork and leather...

    New member; old Boogie lover

    Welcome everyone. I’ve been playing since 1973 and have owned many Boogies over the years, including the original mesa boogie (mark 1). Currently, I own a Mark 5 25 and a beautiful Mark 3 simul-class with all the original paperwork that I’m going to sell. I’m happy to be here. Phoenix
