Nice $45,000.00 jazz bass..
 

A little too steep for my budget

The only reason people are watching it is to see if someone actually buys it!

That posting makes it look like I'm giving my bass away!

FWIW, I like hitting up Gruhn's website just to check out the $$$$$ vintage stuff:)

I like and appreciate a good ol' vintage bass... but REALLY?

It's speculative, looking-for-a-sucker moonshots like this that I quit buying Vintage Guitar Magazine. It's just silly.

I....think it might be fake. The finish checking and peeling just doesn't seem reasonable. I've never seen a bass start peeling that way.

Geez it seems like all the expensive ones are fender, I don't get why fender owners are so full of themselves, they aren't that great lol. I wouldn't pay that much for a bass even if it was owned by a legend.

That's ridiculous.

Nice bass, nice to look at it, but:

- buy a Fender CS replika - nobody hears the difference
- buy a nice car
--------- and save 20.000 dollars for holidays with the family, or another nice bass or amplifiers etc.

Another one of these threads? Already?

But yeah, I couldn't justify that kind if money for a bass, even if I did have it!

Hmmm...more than I paid for my house 10 years ago....

Fake or no, his lost is our gain.

That won't sell at that price and the "story" is way too long for the listing I wouldn't touch it. When I read stuff like this "I don't know how to play instruments, so never try out this guitar. SOLD AS IS. ALL SALES ARE FINAL. NO RETURN WILL BE ACCEPT!" I run....

Needs a refin.....


































LOL j/k

Oh, come guys it even has free shipping;)

That's what happens when people who are my age get money and get nostalgic.

Just like muscle cars. I remember back in high school (1980's), my brother bought a 1970 Plymouth Roadrunner for $800. He recently paid $20,000 for a similar car that's in good shape but won't even idle.

I wouldn't pay more than 43.5k for that.

For that price you can buy 375 SX basses ...

Would it sound 375 times better than an SX?

The bass doesn't look right and the description makes me suspect that it's a scam. It's way over priced even if it is real. Kind of ironic that the seller's name is "shop-smart"'

And there's a lot of other "stuffs" for sale.

the long black hairs visible in both pictures of the neckplate really creep me out.
