Always worth looking at the sold items to get an idea of price - still lots of Thunders around, a few go for around that sort of money, but they still seem to be mostly in the £100-£200 bracket. This one looks OK, well-played but not abused & could do with a good hosing-down. Looks all original but I'd say a bit over the odds.

i stand corrected John 😀

 

A WT was my first bass and I was probably moved to mention this one by sentiment. Still very good value by comparison with some of the crap in the same price range on eBay?

Thunders are interesting basses; extremely well regarded, but have never made the leap into the next price range - apart from some chancers asking silly money.

£250 could be doable, given that most other things seem to have gone up by a good 50% in the past year, but it might be a stretch.

 I think an immaculate, virtually unplayed one might justify £250+, but like you say, the 1 & 1As haven't appreciated like other MIJs have. It's interesting that the through-neck Thunder II & IIIs do go for quite serious money. That said, I think this one might stick around for a while!

It's back! At 10 times the price. Could someone explain what is going on please, in words of one syllable or less?
