Zoom 508 with "Sounds like the Shadows"

[tassie1]

I have a Zoom 508 (with "Sounds like the Shadows") for sale - in as new condition with all documentation.

I would appreciate feedback as to what it would be worth on the second hand market.


Thanks John L - (tassie 1)

Hi John

These are great units, most of us had one or started with one and some still use them. The modern units have brought their value down a bit but I think £80-100 Is possible

Hi Steve - thanks for your reply.

I started with the Zoom 508 back in 2000 and progressed to the RFX2000.
Now I would like to sell my (2) Zoom 508s to purchase a Hall and Collins Signature Echo, so I appreciate your input into a price to sell the 508s.

By the way, I enjoy your you-tube videos - they are great.


Regards and thanks again - John.

Hi all I’ve just picked up a zoom 508ii
It was in the local music shop at £19 with box and instructions
Is it not able to be programmed in the same way

My error here I’ve just looked at it again and it’s a 505ii
At £19 I couldn’t resist it lol
Another toy for the music corner, I have however picked up a G2.1NU for £80 with Charlie’s EFTP programmed in
I just wanted to compare one to the G3, has anyone any opinions on these.

In ththe well known auction site there are 508 units starting at £99 and they go up to nearly £300 all secondhand

I'm pretty sure that when Charlie did EFTP, patches for the Zoom 508 were free, and you can get Sounds of the Shadows patches free now on Goran Tangring's site, so unfortunately the echoes give no added value to your pedal.

I was very surprised at what these units are going for when I started out it was not one I came across.
But then again what people want is not usually what they get.
I Len hope you’re well

Thanks to everyone that responded to my request - all info noted. I have fortunately sold one of the units and will post the last one some time in the future
