Used SP-404: $175? Reasonable?

Post by hemdoes »

Is $175 a reasonable price for a used SP-404? I'm new to all of this. Any other tips?

Thanks for the responses! I really have no idea what I'm getting into. I could find a lot of prices for the SP-404SX, but not the original.

You're getting into a world of making music and exploring your own creativity. You also came to the right community to get you started. :wink:

I found it on Craigslist. Hopefully, I'll have it picked up and paid for by Saturday.

Any tips?
