stingraybassman Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 http://bit.ly/WGzBlF £1800 for a non original that has been converted to a fretted? Fully loaded? Come on. Quote
Dingus Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 As with any transaction , the seller can ask whatever price he chooses and if someone is daft enough to pay it then good luck ! I don't think I will be waving eighteen hundred of my own English pounds at this particular bass though . Quote

SlapbassSteve Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 I think the '1' in the price tag must be accidental... surely..? Quote
Roland Rock Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 Hmmmm.. Added J pup and knob, refin, refret, modern strap locks. To answer your question - no, it's not just you :-) Quote
Delberthot Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 I can't even tell if its an actual Fender from the pics. The headstock and decal look very new Quote

XB26354 Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 It's buy it now or best offer. I'll start the ball rolling at £50. Wait, no, that's my highest offer Quote

TheGreek Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 Note the matching pickups?? ..and wasn't it the late 70s when there were quality control issues with Fenders?? ..." a fool and his money..." Quote

[/quote] Just the late 70s? :-D I reckon the going rate for a good condition, all original '77P is around £1200 This one has had more mods than Brighton, and I wouldn't be surprised if it's only worth half that.

Chris Horton Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 There is not much left of this bass that is original Oh wait , maybe the tuners but it's hard to tell from these pics Quote
evilLordJuju Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 It may be that he's not sure what it is worth, so prices it high, not expecting to sell, and invites offers... Quite a common way to do business on ebay if you really don't know what to ask for something. Quote
thisnameistaken Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 I like the way it looks, probably wouldn't pay more than £400 for it though - it's a Precision after all they're not exactly rare. Quote
chrismuzz Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 Looks pretty cool, not convinced it's a Fender though... Quote
