Ken, I would rather have 2 '65 4001's and I bet you think the same! Though this 4005 looks very cool!

The price is very high, but probably to be expected on these shores, due to the extreme rarity.
I personally would't pay that much...I'm with Ken and Marc on the '65 4001's....If Only!

Martin and marc, i was commenting on Phil's 65 4001 absolutely beautiful bass saying Phil could have bought two for the price of that one,since Phil is to modest to gloat about his 65 i will gloat for him and even o as far as to post a pic of it

We've gotta purplish '68 4005 hanging on the wall here in downtown Osaka, it's pretty pricey, too:
