Looks like it was pulled from a Georgia swamp with that rust!

I've been watching that one too - this morning 1 am it was around $575 or so. Went kind of high for the shape it is in. I'd like to see under the pickguard...

Looking at the knobs I think it may be a 74 or 75 but the color dosen't jive with the finish timeline on Mike Parks web site. Unless of course the guard was changed. Correct me if I'm wrong.

GOOD GRIEF!!!

That can't be right. I would think there are too many nice basses that can be bought for that kind of money.

Must be something going on.

I think they may need to put a light on that pup cover. Low flying aircraft may hit it!
