How does this one look to you folks?  Seems like it would be a nice instrument, but I feel the price is slightly high.  I'm thinking since I can pick up a nice T-bird reissue around here for about 9 hundy, this one shouldn't be any more than that.  My thinking could be all wrong though, of course, wouldn't be the first or last time.  How much do these usually go for?

It's really not too high - maybe a bit, they were a limited run..for a while they were around 700, but seem to be on the way up again from what I've seen.

It looks sweet and sounds even better! I have a blue one and it never lets me down. They may have sold for less in the past but that bass is worth more than it's cost in my view. Plus, it's unlikely we will see another bass from Gibson with those pickups and 24 frets anytime in the near future or ever again.
Contrary to what James Bond says, a good Gibson should be stirred, not shaken.

It was a run of 400. They were blown out at $700 but originally they were almost twice that. I don't think the price is unreasonable.
