A little too steep for my budget http://www.ebay.com/itm/Original-Vin...item4ac1930fc3
The only reason people are watching it is to see if someone actually buys it!

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

- 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.

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

| | | | 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. |

Would it sound 375 times better than an SX?

I went to Bass pro shop and to my surprise they didn't have a single bass guitar.

It's way over priced even if it is real. Kind of ironic that the seller's name is "shop-smart"'
