Montelovesco Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 I know I shouldn't do that... But I stumbled into a Newport Pro in vintage orange, and I wonder whats a reasonable price for it. Keeping in mind that a used Newport Pro Custom goes for 3340$ over here...Any help would be appreciated.
django49 Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 FWIW, I picked up one---Sounds like it is quite similar, but has upgraded pickups-----For less than a third that this past year. Of course that was in the States.
Montelovesco Posted August 21, 2013 Author Posted August 21, 2013 The seller IS in the states, price is 1050$, no bigsby, seth lovers...
G Man Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 seems a fair price to me, I'd grab it if I were in the market, or had the cash.
django49 Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 If in good shape and shipping does not kill you, hard to go wrong. While I personally like the other pickups better (on mine) the Seths are a great match for the guitar.
anotherfreak Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 Sounds good to me, if it's in good shape! It is still one of the best "deals" on a used Hamer. someday people will wake up and realize how AWESOME of a format the Newport is, and the price will adjust acordingly, but until then get 'em while you can!
veatch Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 Seems like a reasonable price, if it's in good shape, has case, etc...
Montelovesco Posted August 22, 2013 Author Posted August 22, 2013 Guys, why are you doing this...? Why don't you lie to me ("1050$? You are crazy! 350$ max!")...?So I will have to think about it seriously...
