Looks good to me.

I don't know if Mr. Hall would be happy with all the lifted graphics however.

Seems a shame on the '06 jetglos to paint over the walnut wings after waiting so long for something cool and vintage!

Wes, when I get my BB FL, I will have Paul remove the paint to expose the wings.

It has been sold already. Do you guys know where I can buy a 4003 Jetglo new with vintage tone selector? Im dying to have one of those!
Thanks in advance!

Its me again!
What do you guys think of this 4001 Autumnglo? Do you think it's original?

In a word, yes. Looks okay.

Posted: **Fri Mar 10, 2006 8:58 am**

It looks just like mine only it has white plastic where mine has black.

What is a fair price for this bass? It's from '80.

Posted: **Fri Mar 10, 2006 10:18 am**

Oooh AG. If it's in very nice, original condition I've seen them go up to $1500+. I'd never pay that for a 4001, even in AG which is one of my favourite finishes. Maybe $1100-1200 is reasonable. And 1980 4001 necks are nice, too.

That is a good question Philip. The same question came up a few weeks ago. I said that I thought $1200 would be about right and my mailbox immediately filled with offers to buy mine for that price. I stand by that number but it could go for more.

It's not a common finish. You fellows seem to like it a lot, it's not really my fave, but looks splendid with gold guards!
If it's in good condition, $1200 is quite reasonable.

Hmmzz alright. Thanks for the input guys. It will be for sale tomorrow at a vintage guitar show. Which things should I check before I decide to buy it? How can I see if there is something wrong with the trussrods/neck?
Thanks!
