in an investment sense, it's probably not worth it.
you'll likely end up spending $3-400 on a refin.
but if it's worth it to you to get the bass want, then go for it.

http://www.wilkinsguitars.com/ is highly respected around here. seems like finishes start at $250 but my guess is that represents a new body, and that having the body stripped for new paint will end up being extra.
