I decided against it as on closer inspection I wondered if it were possibly NOS? No serial number plate is odd and the lack of position markers on the fretboard made me think it may have originally been fretless. A rarity however and £460 is pretty good going for a Modulator.

They are not much more than that price new! http://www.woodbrass.com/en/basse-electrique-5-cordes-gibson-eb-13-bass-fireburst-vintage-gloss-p164114-af833-gbp.html?gclid=CKOcmoWwo7sCFTDMtAodizUAgg

Pretty gone! Anyone here?

Its already being watched.....

I have one used it as a backup for my Fender 50s MIJ the quality is superb and the necks are spot on, mines for sale on here now as the project I was using it for has finished. All the CV stuff is great value for money, I wish they'd been around when I started playing.

Looks like a bitsa to me just looks like a few 'right' basses in the wrong order!

He won't post it I've already asked......

He rewound a Rickenbacker pickup for me and sorted out the wiring harness, good price, good guy to deal with, although it wasn't the quickest service it provided good results.

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1385233187' post='2285965'] Someone made an offer of £475 on this, which was declined! Better get your Shergold basses while you can! Now Vintage & Rare are offering one - at 951 Euros (£795)!!

He told me the offer for it which I still reckon is still too high given the condition of it. My Marathon 4 is near mint and came with the original case, a strap and an old curly lead. It was under £410. These are great basses but don't pay silly prices for them, the really rare ones are the Marathon 6 and 8 strings now they are worthy of silly prices!
