[Kev]

what would you price it at??

[Toasted]

If I had a spare £17K I'd definitely buy it.

[wateroftyne]

Seems reasonable. Bear in mind, auctions like this aren't aimed at the likes of you and me.

As Toasted says, if I had a bit of spare dough in my pocket (okay - a shedload of spare dough), I'd fly out there, go over it with a fine-tooth comb and, if satisfied, hand over the cash.

That I one of the few original first P basses out there for sale / an investment like this will appreciate forever / a real classic should sell fast ..

I see a heist coming on, who's in?

[doctorbass]

I prefer the 63 Jazz he has for sale....

[BigRedX]

I like the look of that T-Bird. Almost affordable too.

[Dr.Dave]

I've never even seen anything as old as this , let alone play it.

I'd dearly love to - just to get a feel of something that was around at the start of something that became so important to me years on and has proved to be a life interest.

A museum piece then - from a collector standpoint , a sound investment - but I'm not a collector , I'm a player. No way I'd ever buy anything at this sort of money.

[Protium]

Would be good for a Green Day covers band I suppose

If someone has a sufficiently appalling sense of aesthetics to buy this, they may be stupid enough to pay that much money too.

Believe it or not, there are people out there who think Warwicks are fugly...

I think Warwicks are truly gastly but this is the man who will soon have a bright yellow P and is lusting after a Pink one.

Too much sugar in your blood mate, I'd drink some water.
