I sold a mint one 4 mths ago (still had plastic protective on) for £120... and it had a T'Bird shape gigbag.

Amazing - I'd have thought the parts were worth more than that :)

The through neck ones tend to not go for nothing. Depending on your cutoff for 'nothing' I suppose. I checked :) There was one that went for £185, which might be an older model given the bridge (or is that a replacement):

and quite a few that failed to sell for a starting bid of £230 or so.

I was curious about one of these, for the sound not for the look. But, I suspect that with sufficient work I'll be able to dial in a similar sound either from my Rockbass Streamer Standard or Ibby SR760, with external eq and other processing.

With a fitted case, this looks to be a bargain for anyone who can pick up in Swansea.

However, the request to phone someone on a mobile number rather than ask questions on eBay is a bit off-putting. Is it an attempt to get around eBay fees? Or could it be something more ominous?

That call for any questions thing , is pretty common IE my dad who i set up ebay stuff for often sticks this on because uses this rather than logging in , or having some push notification pop through which he's not going to notice the its much less hassle

It can also make people feel a bit more secure with the whole ebay purchase ..... if a seller wants to dodge fee's they'll find very quickly that ebay wont put up with it and losing paypal protection for a buyer is not worth the hassle.
