What's a reasonable price for this bass?

Would this year/model be relatively lightweight with a thin neck?

What's a reasonable price for this bass?

Unfortunately, the '70s 4001s are starting to go up in price, and Burgundy is a somewhat rare color, so those go for a bit more too. But, the economy has dampened the prices a bit too.

Price? I don't know. I wouldn't be surprised if it went for $2500 or more, but you never know...

The thing is,...that 2500 would be like money in the bank (if the bass is treated well).

Money in the bank used to be a comforting phrase.
