Peavey tnt 150 bass amp

[bb64]

Evening knowledgeable Army members. I have one of these amps that I was going to put up for sale on Craigslist or Ebay. It seems to work fine.(I'm not a musician) I was wondering if anyone here would have an idea on how much I should ask for it? (I'm not trying to sell it through this website!! lol) Just looking for an idea of fair market value from you knowledgeable musicians. Online info shows it was made around 1989 and it weighs about 80lbs!!...Thanks for any help...Bob

Amps like that typically sell for $250-300. The condition of the amp affects the price. It may work but if it's pretty trashed look wise it hurts the price. Say Flea once owned it and ask $1000. LOL!

Thanks for the info Nitro...It looks great and my son-in-law played through it(he is a musician) and he said it sounded great! It's just too heavy to lug back and forth to his house! I paid $80 for it from a neighbor of mine but I guess I can ask a little more for it?...again, thanks...Bob

I've always had good luck with Peavey gear. Their bass stuff has always sounded good. Bass stuff is heavy. Even moving my 2x10 around is a bitch. I've gotten lazy. I'm running a direct box into the PA and using in ear monitors now. The 8x10 stays home.

Not to me they don't...

But that's a great bass amp for some kid just starting out...

Sell it to some kid for $125-150 and do a good deed...

Well...I put it on craigslist for $200 before I read Elvis's heartwarming reply...we'll see what happens?
I just didn't want to rip anyone off and I'd be happy to get my $80 back and I'll buy a smaller one...I can't play anyway,
I just goof around with my son-in-law!! and don't want to break my back in the process!!...lol

It's the free market. Bid it high. Be honest about it's condition tell them what you want for it and let them decide the price. Then you can accept or reject their offer. It's not ripping a person off if you are honest about what the product is and it's condition. If they paid too much it's because they didn't do their homework.

The value of an item all depends on where you are selling it.

Go on eBay and see what they are selling for. Or Google "Peavey 150 bass amp for sale" (without the quote marks).

In Philadelphia it's worth $50.

$100.00 is about right. Great fucking amps though. They sound reasonably crappy but last forever and are loud enough to actually use.

Not everything Peavey makes sounds good but it will never break. LOL! I've never heard of a Bandit ever breaking.

With a guitar I'm perfectly happy with 30 Watts if it sounds good. That's plenty of power. With a bass I'm like Captain Kirk yelling at Scotty "I need more fucking power!" If the amp goes "She's giving you all she has!" I'm not a happy camper. 300 watts is minimal for me and I'm notorious for having power amps shutting down on me. I'm like Entwistle. You are going to know I'm there and yes singers hate me.
