They have lost their mind.  Way Way overpiced.  Even if it were a 50s in that condition with half the headstock broken out I don't want it.

Another one with a P-bass pup in it. For cryin' out loud, can't people just BUY a P-bass if that's what they want?

Trouble is they could get a few hundo parting it out.  Not even a good project in that shape.

Oh, well.

Looks like it was chewed on by wild dogs.  And there's the P-pickup and non-original tuners.

If that's the original mudbucker, I'd say it's worth $250 - $350.

It says "NO PRICE RESERVE" but is starting at $4,999,99? That sounds like a price reserve to me.  :rolleyes:

What's so rare about a beat up EB-0 with a P bass pickup on it?  ???

I'd buy it for $150.

I'll wait for the $300 listing and a Make Offer button.
