Yikes, it's a bit of an odd duck.  Even though you don't see many, they shouldn't be too outrageous since I don't think there is a high level of demand.  Maybe $75 or so?  Just guessing!  It all depends on what someone is willing to pay.

They don't make them anymore and I've seen them come as Original in vintage Hamers.

  I know I'm late to the party but probably they don't go for all that much. Hamer makes great stuff but just because they used that pick up I would not expect it to add value. In June I picked up a Hamer Biltz for $350. This bass had a very high retail price but it just doesn't translate to collect-ability or resale value.  I get Model Gs for around 20-40 bucks hell I have had people give them to me. Hope you get/got what you wanted for it.

Later to the party.  Black Model G's are extra cool, but I don't think you should pay extra unless you just have to have it now.

You could look for the old Schaller bass bucker as an option.  Not too far off from the Model G, but I don't know how different it sounds.
Model One and Schallers?  Ish.

He was selling, not looking to buy.
