Something very similar to this is still being made by them today.

The modern version is made by Warwick and is still called Triumph (or Triumph Lite in the cheaper Rockbass line). The old and new versions do look very similar!

I love the shape of these - I have a 'thing' for mid-C20th design and this ticks so many boxes. One of these (I think it was one of these, anyway) came up recently and sold for around £800. And that was too much for me!

I also really like the aesthetics of these. I'd want to put together a kitschy little lounge jazz trio with the drummer on a sparkly cocktail kit and the keyboard player on some sort of 60s German electric piano like a Hohner or Weltmeister. Matching suits, of course...

Velvet safari suits and big collars!
I love the formica they used to build these.

Priced a little optimistically, I think...
