Toronto prices tend to be high . What is this transition pickup they're talking about ?

Seen it - want it. But did not pull the trigger, yet.

Prices are in CAN dollars, by the way.... so multiply by 0.78 (?) to get the US figure.
Price actually looks quite good, in my opinion.

+1. I think that's a good price for what it is.

I bought a Hofner from them a couple years back and had no problems with the purchase. Good store to deal with from my experience

Capsule is a great little vintage/used Toronto shop , they were on Queen St for years . I'd recommend a visit if you're in Toronto . Now they're in the basement of the Century Drum Shop . Another great little shop , and I don't even play the drums .

Do they ask how much you weigh when you tell them you are interested in purchasing it?

They're a great store, I highly recommend dealing with them. They're very customer oriented and will even let you take a vintage guitar apart to check the details. I would have been all over this if I had the available funds or felt like trading in 4 other basses.
They've also got a 1974 JG 4000 for $2,695 CDN, roughly $2,000 US.

I think I stole my 4000 . But I offered the seller what I could put my hands on at that moment and promised to give it a good home . I do play it every day . And have no intention to flip it .

Jeez... If that's the going rate for set neck 4000's I definitely stole mine as well...
