So is that the secret? Mod the f^(# out of your bass, throw in a little abuse for good measure, and it will still sell for $900!

I agree with Jaymi. I think its a mid to late '70's model, not a '70 or a '73. Hard to tell from this guy's horrible photo, but the tuners have the black skirts on them.

Some poor guy got taken. I'm sure it doesn't have checkerboard binding. The seller probably doesn't know what checkerboard binding is and just lifted the wording from some guide describing the features of a 1970 4001.

The seller emailed me the serial number. 1979.

And some poor bargain hunter with Mr. Magoo-vision spanked that BIN button.

Buyer beware!

This has been relisted with a BIN of $650. Thankfully the last deal did not go thru.
