If the 80s ever become cool that'll be worth a lot more than the current price. (& so will my Hohner B2A)

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

KHAAAAAAAN!!!!!!!!!

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.

Very similar to my graphite necked Warlord...in fact the current high bidder is a very good mate of mine!!! Hmm!

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!

Definitely one for the die-hard collectors I think. The neck on Nick's was superb though.

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.
