ARGH!!! Yet ANOTHER '80s 4001S . . . though it's not Mapleglo . . . but still, that Burgundyglo looks gorgeous. Once again, I'd grab it if I had the money, but I can't . . . and look who the high bidder is. He'd better not get it.

Oh my god. I feel stupid. I had the URL copied and I typed up the entry and forgot to past it in . . . *smacks forehead* . . . but yeah, that's it. I just know that if the Emperor got it for $900, he'd sell it for $1800.

Indeed.

Nice...

You think it may have Grovers, too?

FYI, it's a set-neck, not a neck-through.

funnily enough I've seen two, one that I recall - possibly wrongly - was a southpaw, being used in the backing band for the cardigan's singer - can't remember her name - at V2001 or 02. The other was what I think was with a slovakian comedy-jazz outfit in a tiny tent at glastonbury '03. At least it looked like a burg. but then, lots of things looked a bit strange that weekend.

Wasn't this bass recently sold on Ebay? That picture was used in an auction that appeared just before Christmas.

Sorry, I just notice that it is a completed auction. Nevermind.......
