I can imagine one in good condition would be very pricy. I was lucky with the equally rare Coral Deluxe Bass finding one with OHSC for a very reasonable price. (I did a lot of work on it - but it was worth it) There's a molested white one on Reverb for twice what I paid and it's a cross between the CDB and the Silvertone 1443 Hornet (34" scale). Speaking of the Hornet, there are a number of them on Reverb, 2 in VGC with OHSC for a very reasonable asking price. I've heard one played live and it sounded great - but it's a big instrument. (like my CDB) I will not post the link as I don't want to enable. ;)

Not enabling, because this is the freebass we are talking about. The price is way out of line for what this thing is, but it's like mine was, only white. I'm looking at the price and thinking you gotta be kidding me. It was OK, but almost $2500? Um, not that OK.

There's enabling and there's just silly. That's just silly.

That pickguard is awesome! The ultimate surf bass.
