Looks like the original case- when I still had the original case for my 75 (since has disintegrated) it was blue plush lined. Maybe that's why the BIN is 2500

"A BONEHEAD"

I love it! My thoughts exactly. Looks like another case of GC fever!

I would expect about $1200 for my 75 Burgundy, which has a few dings, but nothing as major as that one has...

I would feel comfortabe putting my '75 up for about 1200- if I was selling.

Three sounds about right. Basses, that is.

The clearcoat is worn off in many places. A beater if I ever saw one. He must have been looking at the GC auctions. One thing he never check was that they never sell.

And $65.00 to ship in the US? This bonehead's on crack!

Goofy for sure. Keep an eye on it. It'll be around for a while! Unless somebody buys the darned thing and instantly ups the ante for everybody. Grrr....

I wouldn't pay that price in a million years! He can keep it!

"All original"...black pickguard & white binding?
No decent shot of the trc, either.
