4003 - http://acapella.harmony-central.com/for ... ?t=2039316

[phlemmy]

it doesn't look double bound to me. it just looks like black tape around the edge of the body.

[anoukane]

At least the price is good!

[prismacolor2]

Yeah - IMO - that price is good - for two of them (with some cash left over). Good luck!

I'm not impressed. The seller clearly knows the 4001 isn't worth anywhere close to whats he's asking--he's looking to rip off someone who doesn't know any better. Just taking a wild shot in the dark and won't loose any sleep if some misguided person thinks it's worth $5K. I couldn't live with myself knowing I ripped someone off. It's no better than scalping charity concerts or profiteering from natural disasters. Disgusting.

But Fred, it comes with pictures of the bass and models - that has to be worth the premium!

Sean, I never thought of black tape....

Sean, I never thought of black tape....

Well the owner has.. It's to cover some scuff marks!
emac.

$5000? Say what?

I'm in a bad enough mood from work today. No wonder the guy gets flagged on CL.

Must be a good looking model that posed with it.

[paologregorio]

It's the premium electrical tape applied as a stripe around the body that accounts for the high price, I think.

[ben_brown]

He couldn't sell that for half of what he's asking. You can get three basses like that for what he wants.
What a marooon!

[kiramdear]

I can just hear it: "Yes, Honey, I listed the bass like you wanted."

Granted all those rings & tattoos cost him a lot of money, but 5 grand for buckle rash and electrical tape? Oh, and he'll throw in the porn photos too
If you like that deal, then I've got a great big red bridge I'll sell you. It's very shiny!

I added my .002 to the above mentioned Harmony Central forum thread, BTW

[chefothefuture]

Yuck!
