Sorry, slip of the finger!

Works the other way sometimes, a 60's strat and a les Paul special went for less than £100. There was a witch hunt for the lucky bu**ers who got them!

Will I tell him not to get his future wife too excited!

Er... even 350 is too much, isn't it..? Is this the same Squier Jazz that goes for about 255 new..?

Yeah, I reckon he has probably told her that he's parting with his treasured bass that he used when he was a rock star and it will bring in a tidy sum for the nuptials

"Darling, I TRIED to sell the bass. I listed it at just over a quarter for what it goes for new. It's the economy... You don't want me to give it away do you?"

Hang on, hang on, if he were trying that one he wouldn't have declared an inflated value to his missus, he would have told her "it only cost me £50.00 darling, less than a pair of your shoes or a hair-do.
Explain that one....

I think that would depend on whether he came with a mansion and a country estate.

I don't know, Squires are pretty rare.
Not to be confused with the more common Squiers, 'though.
