Feb. 1967 4005 OS Burgundyglo. $13,495

No CB on OS's. Top has some nice flame

That bass is two S/Ns away from the JG 4005WB I had for 38 years.

After 38 years of owning it I felt it was time to pass it on to its next caretaker; that was in the summer of '11.  Not to mention I got an offer I couldn't refuse!  :mrgreen:

Short scale 4030, Ruby/BT. Checkerboard binding, Richlite fretboard. Nice!

It amazes me how terrible people can be at taking pictures.  :o Those are pretty cool basses, though I prefer the midnight blue ones.

If it weren't for someone posting the worst pic of a Ric on Craigslist, I wouldn't have my 4003 Shadow for $750.

Ended "because there was an error in the listing." How much was the listing price?

When I last looked it was just over the starting bid of $1,500, with 3 bids. Reserve not met.

If it weren't for the 94% feedback and it being in Japan, I'd probably snatch that up right now and flip it.
