Can anybody tell me what a fair price is for a Zoom RFX-2000 fitted with EFTP?
There are 2 on e-bay at the moment, one at £155.05 (finishing this pm) and one just started at £50.00.

The fair price is the one you are ready to spend !

I have one myself, Paul, & they are great units. I would say that around £150 is probably a fair second-hand price, if it is in good working condition. You need some sort of signal booster between your guitar & the unit for best results. Either an overdrive pedal or a compressor pedal will do fine. Charlie used to give away a Zoom O/D pedal with them when he sold them.

That's because the RFX 2000 doesn't an input with a suitable impedance for direct guitar connection. Any device which can be used as a guitar peamp can do the job. An active effect pedal is likely to do the job, even with the effect off. I guess that a wireless guitar transmitter would also work.

I must point out here , that if you put some kind of signal booster between your Guitar and a RFX 2000 /2002 you must plug in the rear of it, plug in the front only direct from Guitar. IMO the unit works fine without any kind of booster, most players plug in the front and are happy with the
E F T P Echos..........As for the free o/d pedal give away, that was only with the early units that Charlie Hall sold because the they came free to him, but Zoom stopped them after a while........

Thanks to all for the advice. I missed out on the first one, but will try for the second.
