I want one of those basses - even a bolt on would be fine. $1,000? No way. Not even close. I'll be surprised if the seller gets a penny over $500. If one of you out there have one for sale - please list it here.
I paid a lot for mine (the most I have paid for any of my El Degas basses), but not a grand.
I have a feeling this will be available for quite a while.
I started ElDegas.com many years ago to help celebrate and inform about El Degas instruments. It all started with a used Ric 4000 bass copy I bought in circa 2000.
El Degas stable as of 03/2022: 42 (13 bass, 26 electric, 3 acoustic)
