Grangur Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1415196795' post='2597737'] So £1800 for a pristine, stock original 1975 sunburst P with maple neck and black pickguard?? Am I missing something or is this a bargain? The early sunbursts are just fantastic. So much red in there compared with modern versions.

Rubbishatbass Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 In 1981 I had one just like this save for the dark fingerboard and for it being a fretless ... had the thumb rest, the lot. I wish I still had it ... if I was single, I'd buy this just for the hell of it and not even play it which would be a shame but I'd just hang it on the wall or something. But I'm not so I can't get it through ... It's a beautiful piece of workmanship though ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweedledum Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 That's a beautiful bass indeed! I'll be in London next year in April. If it's still for sale by then, I'll come by and have a look at it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
