Wow, that's beautiful, but indeed my eyes almost popped out seeing that price. :(
Those Richmonds look quite interesting too, a bit of a Mosrite vibe I'd say.

Syl, have you thought about Bilt? You can totally customize the specs; pickups, neck profile and scale, etc.

Those Bilt are beautiful, but they are in the USA.

Duesenberg Starplayer Bass guitar - $1600 (SW Austin)

http://austin.craigslist.org/msg/4157971110.html

Champagne sparkle , mint condition. Boutique bass all the way. Med scale. Comes w nice case and case candy including certification. I love this thing , sad to sell. But there is a Mike Lull that I MUST have so this has to go. A rare and beautiful gem. I also have an extra set of flats that will come w it. This is a German made PREMIUM bass guitar- please don't waste my time if not interested. This is a GREAT deal for this!

Boston Guitar Works carried those. They have this interesting art deco aesthetic, but I wouldn't pay the going rate (~$3000 as I recall) for one.

Yes, they're stupidly expensive in the States. I scored a mint V-caster for around $400 a few years ago on German Ebay; nowadays I see them go for $700-800, which is still a great deal. If you want a Duesy buy it in Germany, eat the shipping and customs, and if you don't like it (which I doubt) you can still flip it for a handsome profit.

How about a stacked humbucker to avoid routing? I've got one in the middle position on my tele and it sounds incredible. Can only imagine it would do the same in neck position.
