What!!!!! The 80's aren't cool? Everybody knows Music, Fashion and Films all hit their peak in the Eighties! :)

Looks like the electronics have been messed about with. I think it should have a rotary P/U selector where the blank space is, a vol, tone and a 3-band EQ much like a Jaydee by this point. Not quite sure what's going on there.

[quote name='doctor_of_the_bass' post='483601' date='May 9 2009, 10:25 AM']Very similar to my graphite necked Warlord...in fact the current high bidder is a very good mate of mine!!! Hmm![/quote]
Its not me. :) I think its collectability will be limited to people on this forum or on other forums with a Level 42 connection where bragging rights are strongest. There's not enough nostalgia associated with the brand for it to have a wide appeal. I would be wary of chucking a lot of cash at it unless you don't plan on selling it for a long time.

BTW, speaking of buses

Good lord, over 1,300 pounds with changed electronics and cosmetic flaws. Some folks really wanted that bass!

[quote name='Crazykiwi' post='487180' date='May 13 2009, 07:23 PM']Definitely one for the die-hard collectors I think. The neck on Nick's was superb though.[/quote]

Thanks Steve - it is a great bass! I did actually have a bid on that one on Ebay (thank the Cosmos I was outbid by around £700!!!) but I've just bought another one - which is very naughty of course!!!! The Ebay bass looked to have had a string retainer on the headstock which may have meant a non-pitched back headstock, whereas mine is pitched! Would have been interesting to have seen it - the thing is that out of all the Pangs I've seen/owned, each is pretty much unique in terms of features/cosmetics.
