Used gear guides
Written by hand, priced by the data: every number in a guide is live. The figures on these pages are typical used prices from recorded sales, never asking prices, and none is printed from fewer than eight sales. The sources today are Reverb and eBay, with the local classifieds in the countries we cover. The method, in full, is a guide of its own: how Doirado prices gear.
