I'm no expert, but that seems like a totally reasonable price. I recall SHDM grabbing one last year: viewtopic.php?f=13&t=7650 |

Yes, a very reasonable price. The serial # places the instrument somewhere between October - November, 1982 |

Yeah, I paid more than that, and this one looks to be in better shape, although mine is white and black hides marks better. |

I owned it since 1986 (30 years) It was a 1984 model (s/n 1964) Great basses and a really good price at $1500. |

That's the same site I used and I must have looked in the 500 range instead of the 5000s.  Look at serial # 541-A on that database. I wonder if he ever paid for it?
