A refin in Pink?

I'd be thankful you don't see them too often.

goddamit i JUST missed it. That's the cheapest bean you'll see in this life or the next. Plus you get to choose whatever colour you refinish it in!

Great basses that no one wanted a few years ago. Not fashionable at all back then and shops couldn't shift them.

Now they are fashionable again and have been discovered presumably by buyers that were to young too remember them when they were new then i wonder if they actually get played or are just hung on a wall by collectors?

Really?

I've been watching Travis Bean basses for the last 10 years and that's one of the cheapest I've seen - especially considering it's already in the UK.

I've seen them cheaper in the U.S. in the last ten years bit not lately. In the 90s they weren't very desirable and i know of two that hung on the walls of music shops for months with little or no interest shown to them. In those days they were probably not old enough to be vintage and too quirky for most buyers. Great basses though that are now both vintage and fashionable.
