Well the $2500 price tag kind of stopped me for a minute.

WHOA! Guess I can't complain about $950 for the JG!

Mine was a bit over $1550 about 6 months ago. It is a spotless '98

With prices on discontinued Ricenbackers continuing to soar, maybe I should hoard as many as I can

I got mine a month ago for $1385 shipped.....I guess it was good deal

. It's a '98 JG and also spotless.

So you're saying it's gone up $1100 in value in one month? That's better than the stock market right now. I'll just keep looking.

I find it hard to believe they are bringing that kind of money.....but it appears to be so. That 4008 at POTR sold for right around $2K didn't it? And it had some wear and tear. I'm sure one will pop up for a more reasonable price.....patience grasshopper

I must admit that a tidy profit in a month does sound tempting

Yeah, but did you get the blood off of it? Playing mojo only goes so far

I haven't bled on the s8 yet.....the s8 was the cause of the blisters that ruptured all over my 4003 Midnight Blue.

.....a little blood on one bass and you're marked for life

Sorry Brian but that scarred me for life. Man, I have had nightmares since you posted those pics.

But Brian, it makes for some great stories

.

BTW guys, I found a white/black trim '89.

Brian ... remind me not to buy a used bass from you ... they could be biohazards ...
