Bethlehem PM2D W/C 4 Port w/ newish Blast Shield Marver - $750 shipped

**silicasound** · 05-08-2018, 03:01 PM

Hey all-

Think its time to let this baby go. I got it brand new from Winship (Glasscraft) just a couple months before operation pipe dreams hit in 2003. It has been through thick and thin with me and is still rocking it. This could be a pretty good upgrade from a small torch for a reasonable price. Here's some pics, and I made a short youtube video of the torch running (link below).
Asking $750 for everything shipped. Not real interested in trades at the moment. I'm into crypto and could be down to accept some... Whatcha got!?

The goods:
Hasn't been used the past year as I got a mirage. I sent it in to Bethlehem in 2014 for a good once over and they said they barely had to do anything to it. But they did hook up the newer wider black base (old blue base comes with it). Candles are all good and even. New Blast Shield marver was only used maybe a month or two before I stopped using the torch.

The bad:
I make lots of guitar slides, which requires constant movement up and down using the gearing/knob. This has worn things down a bit and isn't as smooth as it used to be, and feel the slack in the gearing if you grab the torch and move it around. I made a youtube video of the torch running and tried to show this (link below). Its not too bad I would always make sure to grab the back of the torch near the ports with my other hand to help support the torch during movement of the know/gearing. Other than that I think of this as a torch in pretty good condition. Just shows some cosmetic signs of age being about 15 years old.

Still available?

I'll take it if it's a propane model.

**BORO** · 05-18-2018, 11:57 AM

this was bought in 2002/2003 , its the last and best version.

Its as "propane" as they get. they were all "technically" designed for natural gas.

I'm willing to bet this has none of thoes issues associated with the older 70's and early 80's models.

I have been hounding my homie to buy this all morning. Please p.m. me if cottontail does not take it. (doubtful , Cottontail is a o.g. that follows through from what I have seen. )

Hey sorry I haven't checked in here for a few days. I do still have the torch, but someone is currently trying to secure it. I'll update status soon. Thanks for your patience and interest homies. Peace!
