Could this actually be - RARE - not many about surely?

This, or something very like it, came up a week or some weeks ago. The current seller doesn't have a previous non-sale in his/her completed listings. So, either it's another one, or whoever bought the last one is selling in on proper quick.

Edit: It is the same seller. Previously on for £180. [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1983-Westone-Raider-1-Bass-Matsumoku-Japan-Rare-/260658990602?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item3cb07c8e0a"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1983-Westone-Raider-...=item3cb07c8e0a[/url]

I remember this last time it was up - it didn't sell, and had a BIN of £180 - same location, so either it is the same person, or they sold it locally.

A week or two ago there was another one up for £120 BIN collection fairly local to me - first it had a pictre of the guitar version, and the description of a bass - then the pictures changed to ones of the "actual guitar", which were of a bass......on birmingham Gumtree, there is the same description, and collection point by someone with the same name - but the picture is now of the guitar version again...£100 on there

OK, she says that this was left to her, and she knows nothing about guitars, but surely the pictures would be consistent throughout!!!!!!!

Still - sparkley and pointy :)

Just more evidence of how JapCrap ain't shifting at the moment. A year or so ago I think it would've got the original £180 - they are pretty uncommon & Westones on the whole were getting good coin.

Love the 2-tone metalflake finish - if it was a [url="http://www.westone.info/dynastybass.html"]Dynasty[/url] in the same colours I might be tempted...

Jon.

If it had been a Dynasty or Dimension, I would have found the money from somewhere.
