Wasn't Paul doing some work on that bass, Dave?
It is on his enhancement "to do" list.

Nice fretless BB Dave! Any chance you could disclose what Paul will be "enhancing"?

$3K...That's a good price for a FL, even with the classic features.
I found that in the London (UK) ads while browsing one night here in Florida. The owner thought it was a 75 and sent me pics and the serial number. My father in law drove the 50 miles the next day to get it!
It had belonged originally to the "Heavy Metal Kids" bassist and they were touted as the new "Led Zep" in 74/75, signed with a big advance and the whole nine yards. He sold it to a lawyer who knew him and he'd kept it since 75. He had to sell it to keep the wife happy as he wanted a new organ. No jokes please...
I thought about a BBVPFL for the longest time but couldn't stand the neck width that was present at the time.
Now one of those very rare SGBBFL would be cool though...
