Mr. Foxen Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 £4000 if you work off the price that someone with one on ebay chose to start an auction on. Which really doesn't count. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MB1 Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 MB1. My initial thought was what bass model do Ibanez make that costs 4000? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Machines Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Ah - important thing to note here. It was made by the luthier Ibanez before Hoshino Gakki took it over in 1929. See [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ibanez"]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ibanez[/url] (quite an interesting history here). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Save yourself the cash and just buy a £2k Prestige. There is very little difference between the two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johngh Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Blimey, this beats the "blokes dead but not dead" abandoned Vintage Fender Jazz yarn. I hope they don't get wind of this on Talkbass, they'll be insisting the buyer for a fiver has a whip round for the bin men. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
