SlapbassSteve Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140804661688&ssPageName=ADME:B:SS:GB:1123"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140804661688&ssPageName=ADME:B:SS:GB:1123[/url] I heard these were appreciating in value, but really? Admittedly this is in spotless condition. I have a '64 Egmond Princess(think Gibson 335 shape) bass knocking about, presumably as it's even older and still working and playing beautifully it'll be worth about twice that..?

spinynorman Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 I suppose they're even less common outside Europe, but even so .... Your Princess looks nice. I was amused by this pic on the Dutch fan site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musky Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 Completely mad isn't it. I bought a B2V body recently for £20 - and even that was a good fiver more than it should have gone for! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musky Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Oh dear. Someone has made the mistake of thinking that because one dreamer wants an absurd figure to part with his bass, then offering his own for 10% less constitutes a bargain. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1960s-ROSETTI-BASS-9-VINYL-COVERING-ALL-ORIGINAL-SAME-AS-EGMOND-2BV-GREAT-NICK-/300789040594 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlapbassSteve Posted November 3, 2012 Author Share Posted November 3, 2012 Not in a rush to sell mine, but couldn't resist.

Musky Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 It's amazing just how many people seem to think that auctions with prices that attract absolutely zero interest somehow represent a useful guide price. At least he hasn't wasted a listing fee by sticking it on Ebay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
