they seem like they might be a bit high priced, but the listing says, unplayed for 30 years

I like the single oval at the 12th 'fret' on the fretless.

the thing about CL is that people expect you to bargain. If you really wanted both of them, and they are as "new" as the seller claims, then they might be worth $4K for the pair, and you might even get them for that price. All speculation though, I just spent $1970 on my Christmas bass, and when I brought these up to the wife, she just laughed a hearty laugh........

Peace, JBY

"she just laughed a hearty laugh"

Love it!

It would be nice to have better pictures, but the Bird's Eye does look nice, and if indeed they are "unplayed" and in perfect condition, then yes the matching pair would be a great find for someone; at the right price.
