Hi just recently discovered Ovation bass guitars. Someone is offering me a 1967 Typhoon III fretless bass for $700. In very good working order and good shape. No case - I am not a fretless player - is this worth buying as a collectible? Also what kind of case would fit this guitar. Thank you.

One just sold on eBay for about $600.
There is another on listed on eBay for close to a Thousand bucks.
Are they collectable? It depends on what you are into...
They are Rare.
If you wanted this to Play, you would have to decide on the value.

The Fretless ones are the rarest of the production Storm Series. One that's in good condition/playable... priceless if you want a really nice fretless bass. OMA really has the best advice above. Decide what it's worth to you.

Thank you guys. If it was the i or ii wouldn't hesitate. Maybe it is time to try a fretless. Do you know what type of case would fit this bass?
