    The Gallery have pricing for replacement of a fretboard on their site from £280...even if it cost you £400 you've still got a great Smith bass for £3k. Good job I'm not looking for a fretless 🙂

    The current board does not need to be replaced. The repair done to this bass does not look good, but it does not affect the playability. It is way cheaper to do it like this compared to replacing the whole fretboard. It is also quite difficult to replace the whole fretboard on a neck-through bass with high gloss finish.

    The only thing that would bring up the value is a repair by the people over at the Smith workshop, which would be quite expensive. 

    If you just want to play the bass, you can just play it as it is.

  2. Tanglewood Sundance TW-92, handcrafted in Korea

    Spruce Top, Mahogani Body, Rosewood Fingerboard, Piezo Pickup (Bridge), Fishman Preamp. Comes with a leather bag.

    These were 600€ new (not inclding the bag), so I think it is priced competitively.

    The Tanglewood Bass in this video is of a lower grade (availiable for £399.00 new), but it shows of the bass quite nicely.
