13-inch MacBook Pro with Touch Bar and Creative Software

Description

So, I’ve been using this Mac for years — it’s basically my creative home base — and now I’m downsizing a bit. It’s a 13-inch MacBook Pro with the Touch Bar, Retina display, and a quad-core i7 running at 2.8GHz. Got 16GB of RAM and 256GB SSD, which means it handles everything from video editing to photo work without any lag.

It’s been fully tested — all hardware components passed Apple’s official standards — and I’ve even had it run through a full diagnostics check just to be safe. I’ve used it for all kinds of creative stuff, so it’s loaded with the latest 2025 apps: After Effects, Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve 20, Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, and a whole bunch of other tools like Ableton, Logic Pro, and the Spectrasonics and Arturia bundles.

I’ve also got the latest version of macOS Sequoia (15.2) running — and I can install any OS you’d like, if you’re into that. It’s been set up with all the software I use daily, so it’s ready to go right out of the box.

The machine is in great condition — no dents, no issues, just clean and reliable. I’ve been using it for years, and it’s held up well.

I’m based in Old Kilpatrick, West Dunbartonshire, so if you’re local, I can chat or meet up. I’m happy to do viewings — just let me know.

I don’t charge a lot — it’s actually £495 — but I’ve been using it as a workhorse for a long time, so it’s time to move on.

I’ve had 12 years of experience with Apple hardware, mostly doing sales and repairs. I’ve been on Gumtree for years, and I know how to handle things properly — from setup to support.

If you're into creative work — video, design, music — this is a solid machine. I’ve even got a 14-day exchange window if you want to try it out.

No PayPal or phone card payments — I take cash, cards, or bank transfers.

If you're looking for something reliable and well-maintained, this one’s been through the wringer and still works like a dream.

And yeah, I do trade-ins too — if you’ve got an old Mac or device, I’ll take it in.

Just let me know if you’re interested — happy to chat.
