Great isn't it? I used it for a song writing practice at Mr Venom's house the other day. Wrote two news songs with it - "1980's Hardman" and "Dead Deadbeat Delinquent"

As it says on the bass: "She's here to brighten your day with her warm heart and fun-loving ways!"

Just looked at how much they go for, the rare occasions they appear on ebay.

Bloody hell! Although you'll notice that neither of those actually sold.

I got mine second-hand (although in perfect condition and with all the "case candy") from Ishibashi for less than £300 including shipping and import taxes.

I didn't notice, was too shocked at the price.

I'll give you £150, seeing as it's 3rd hand :D

Interesting. However the shape of where the neck becomes the headstock is just weird and there doesn't seem to be any explanation for the reason behind it, which I would have expected considering they show it in the photos of all the instruments. It doesn't appear to make restringing or getting an even break angle - which IMO is the secret behind a consistent feel to the strings - particularly simple or straight forward.
