i was wondering how much would an 70's bass bridge sell for?

You're more likely to have to pay someone to take it away, they're utter junk.

No-one's ever recorded anything worthwhile using a 70s Fender bridge. Hopeless things.

I was being sarcastic - there's nowt wrong with them

It's hard to tell how much it would go for. Have you got any pics? They changed a bit throughout the 70s.

its amazing what some people will ask for 70's Fender bits....

There are some 1972 pup and bridge covers on ebay at the minute for £215 or a 1965 thumbrest for £139. It doesn't say if that includes the screws, but as they are shown in the pic, I assume it does!

A 1974 bridge is on offer at £151.69 plus postage.....

I needed a '74 fender bridge for my '74 which I was restoring to it 's original spec.

I was given a totally pristine condition one by Mo Foster to use. It 's nice when people do something based solely on generosity, huh?

Saying that, it doesn't help you out in your own search, huh?

I just sold an early 70's (long G intonation screw) for £120.
But yeah anywhere from 80-200 depending how lucky/gullible you are lol, and what condition it's in.
