That's just like mine (also a '94) before I bling-ed it out. The finish has seen better days, but looks good overall.

I love these. I settled for one of the trans black Epi LP Special basses, which is pretty decent in its own right - much to my surprise when I initially picked it up..

Cool bass! The TV yellow/3 knob combo works nicely.

Thanks Tom. Bass sounds great too. The bling on yours is a nice touch.
Contrary to what James Bond says, a good Gibson should be stirred, not shaken.

Just getting back to the auction, the bass went for £1.4K, or $1,850, plus the additional fees (about half the results are showing at the moment: https://guitar-auctions.co.uk/catalogue-preview-thursday-14th-june-2018/).
The future I come from no longer exists.

To paraphrase Carson, that's some weird wild stuff for sale there. Nice Corvus and love the bridge and tremolo on the SG100.

That's a reasonable final price.
