warwickhunt Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 In an 'ideal world', a bit more than you've just paid for it (so you should know that figure) BUT in the real world a bit [u]less[/u] than you've just paid for it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cat Burrito Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 People always want the original though. I've got some heavily modified and improved (in my opinion) instruments but it's worth considering what works for the original owner might not work for the new owner. You've done well keeping the original parts though. I tend to sell pickups on through EBay but this can be false economy if selling the instrument on at a later date. Looks good btw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aznbass Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 Have you kept the old pickups? You could always include them with the sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubinga5 Posted December 18, 2009 Author Share Posted December 18, 2009 yes got the original pups...anyone know what its worth then?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wateroftyne Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 If you bought it used, privately & not too long ago... probably a similar amount? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sixshooter Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 In the current market I would put a rough price of between £1200 and £1800, this based on the price I paid for my 59P CS, (prior to the credit crunch), and the price I sold my Limited Edition 40th Anniversary CS P Bass. Although in this market I think it would fetch closer to the lower end. Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
