Someone I know is willing to sell me his Neve 8038. He said, "I know what I want for it, but make me an offer." The console was shipped to Hawaii in 1978 from Cambridge, is in excellent condition and was recently recapped and serviced.
Can anyone help me figure out what this thing is approximately worth right now?
