Is that the pointy headstock PJ model? If so I'd not expect more than £100-£150... that's one opinion any way!

Hello and welcome to Basschat.
Put some photo's up and you may get more than one opinion.
If you do a search on E Bay you may find one that's been sold over the last few months.
Also google it see what you come up with.
Good luck,
Karl.

Pics please! I'm not familiar with the B-30, but that might be one of the later Korean-made basses. B-20s were from the early 80s, vaguely Explorer-shaped, & like all of the Japanese Washburns , extremely well-made & quite collectable these days. I had one a million years ago & it's one of the few basses I regret selling.
