Title: 97 Orion 4
Post by: notenslaved on April 15, 2006, 06:35:36 AM
Thinking of selling my '97 Orion 4 string. It's mahagony body & vermillion top, side fret markers, Hipshot HB6C tuners, Hipshot Bass Xtender all gold. I still have the stock tuners as well.
 
It's got some signs of play, but it was well taken care of. It's got an aftermarket case.
 
I was going to put it on eBay but I can't find a ball park figure of what this bass is worth.
 
Any suggestions?

About six dollars, I will send you a birthday card filled with 6 ones and you send me bass.;-)

Your opening bid is fair, so you should get a few bites...won't ask what your reserve is, but I've seen Epics with worse wear sell in stores for ~$1K.

The guy that has the high bid on your bass now also has an Alembic for sale on ebay.

Kind of odd.

Thanks for the comments, and for pointing that out Olie. I agree, kind of odd.  
 
Well, I have no idea what the bass is worth I only know what I paid for it. The bass has a personality that's priceless, that's all that matters.
 
Here's the linkage
