Thanks. So far I got a large window of wouldn’t touch it for 1k and over 3.5k the truth lies somewhere

Thanks that would be great

I somehow missed the headstock repair. That usually takes about 30% off. The mods are all desirable ones.

Being a 70's Bicentennial bass none of the mods on this are desirable. Headstock repair devalues it by something closer to 50% not 30%. I wouldn't pay more than 1.5k. You might be able to squeeze 2k out of it but it would have to be a really good day.

I'd peg it somewhere in the $1300 to $1800 range, maybe. A headstock repair isn't a deal breaker as long as it's solid, but as mentioned lowers value. Me, personally, I'd probably prefer one that's had a solid headstock repair. Looks like a fun bass though!

Thanks well aware the mods hurt it

Greetings from the North,

Good to know. When I pass mine on my daughter might use it to help her get through grad school
