Olivia's does it again! 4005 Price Record?

[wints]

I'd be surprised if this sale is genuine, looking at the buyer's feedback rating...

Fair play to Olivia,s vintage. It was a fine example of a 4005 . A bass that deserves such a price tag.I was thinking of buying it but Santa would have missed my house (for a few years). So much for the secret, I had a picture of that 4005 on my fridge.

Welcome, Mark! I don't even a have a picture of my '67 4005WB on my fridge! You must have wanted that bass bigtime, eh?

Keep in mind that this was one of the bound 4005s (like Jeff's) and should garner a higher price based on its vintage and rarity. I think standard 4005s should be available in the $5-8K range depending on age and condition.

Also keep in mind a nicer 67 bound 4005 sold a few weeks ago for only $6500.

I'm guessing Olivia's will be relisted due to a non-paying bidder.

The example which sold a few weeks ago was listed incorrectly as a '67, when it was actually a much later model - probably 80s - with short inlays and higains.
