Pretty interesting how the prices have dropped on pieces like this, and that Epi Newport that we've been talking about.

I really like the looks of those bassguitar. I have the epi version at home but an old gibson would be really great.

And, gee willickers, here is another.  Funny biz on the back of the headstock.  I don't know that it ever broke, but people were funny with these.

I think that one's been up before. If i were bidding, I'd want a higher resolution shot of the headstock/neck transition.

It's back with a starting bid of $4,500
AND it's a '58..not the year I was born
AND it looks like it's been eaten by termites

It's actually the second link that EB2 provided.  I think this is a second separate listing, and not the original one that went for $1700.

Okay, I get it. I thought he meant that the first one was being flipped at a much higher price.
