At least $2000 even though it has no CB or FWMOP.

The post-CB '73s always go higher than I think they will. This one has a toaster, and although you can't really tell from the pics, it should have wavy Grovers. Those two features are nice, value-wise. I agree that it'll probably hit the low-to-mid 2k range.

Wavy Grovers, toaster pickup in the 1/2" position and the plexi TRC are the three vintage features that bass should have. It's still very nice, even without the full with MOP and CB.
JETGLO should officially be renamed JETGLO ROCKS! :-)

Yup, those photo's could hurt the final price. Hopefully an informed buyer would ask for far clearer photo's, especially to see if the Grovers are still there.

I'd say around the $2.5K mark if it's got the original tuners.
