Fretless beauty. The price is high though, and this particular seller's descriptions are getting shorter all the time. How rare are fretless T40s?

It is certainly a beaut! Not sure what to think of that production number he throws out. 400 total? 400 in sunburst? Nonetheless, it is a factory fretless and T40s have certainly gone way up in value in the last few years. Certainly the first $1000 offer may get the nod.

To the best of my knowledge, there were only a few made.

I ordered a neck (was like $125)... very very disappointing...

No, it's still ridiculous.

No, it's more ridiculous if someone pays.

That reminds me of the Carl Thompson $10 Million dollar bass.

 

[bigtone23]

I personally wouldn't pay more than $500 for a T40, and it would have to be black.
TBH, I would rather get another SF equipped Dyna 5 or a Foundation S.

That's just silly money for a T40. You could import from the US, pay shipping and taxes and still have a lot of change. I could have bought 10 of mine for what the Blackpuddlian guy is asking for his.
However, there was a similarly foolishly priced bass locally a while back. I contacted the seller asking if there was a typo, and he replied his wife wanted him to get rid of it, but he wanted to keep it so he priced it such that it either wouldn't sell, or he'd justify it going to himself by getting lots too much money for it.

Aye, me too. Thought I'd seen the worst couple of year back from a boy In Aberdeen , he bought one for £300 then next day listed it for £1300.

My nice one looks better than that; the body is two pieces, but you really have to look hard to see the join. So I'm gonna ask $A5k for mine.
