How can I identify my 4 string 24 fret Egmond bass guitar?

ANSWER

Hi, Jonny--

The Blue Book does not list any models of these guitars separately. Here is the only information available:

"EGMOND
Instruments previously built in Holland between 1960 and 1972. Also see Rosetti and Lion.
In response to the pop music boom of the 1960s, guitar companies kept turning out instruments to try to meet the generated demand. These entry level guitars were aimed at the novice guitar player, and featured a line of Dutch-built solid and semi-hollow body designs. Used models are typically are found between $250 and $450.
