It's the same with Elvis and Beatles memorabilia. It's only valuable to those who have memorability.

Which was my point about being valuable to Gen Xers for maybe the next 10 years and then lose value.

No. I'm a tight-wad. The only time I buy something is if I run out of it, or I've spent too long trying to fix it when it broke. My last bass lasted 25 years and after 2 years of saying there's nothing wrong with it, I bit the bullet and bought a new one. I find feeling down is fixed with exercise and company, ideally both at the same time. Obviously not everyone can exercise, but a walk with the dog is good enough. Although, as I've never been depressed, it's easy for me to say.

Not more money to everyone. More money to someone who this song is part of their history. It's all part of the "things have emotional value". Like the first bass you owned. Some people have sold their first bass or thrown it in a skip. Others have it in the loft, never to be played again, warped neck, busted pots, but with that sentimental value that means they'll never get rid of it.

If it was the bass he used to record Ghost Town then its worth a lot of money to a lot of Gen X bassplayers who will now be in their prime of purchasing power. But I'd say in the next 10 years it won't be. Probably the top of the market right now.

No. It's Specials.

Sorry...

No Tiger Shoes for Tiger Feet?

Any of these Tiger Ties would be better... https://www.zazzle.co.uk/tiger+ties?srsltid=AfmBOoomOydy8onh4xFMrgugxGzP6l7Lh-QQmeYKL0GyIwJmpcz5-VLi&trchd=true

They're usually ok unless you keep your amp in the garage.

Surely this is the issue. It's not in the system. I would think everything is computerised now. Rather than malice its just a complete system breakdown. Computer says no. I've never had an issue with RM or PF. They deliver my monthly prescription and send far too many emails and texts tbh.

My Samsung Tablet will convert photos to PDF and also has some kind of recognition software that makes everything legible. I'm not on it now and can't remember how it does it. (Edit*) I'm using MobileSheets that backs up to onedrive and my phone and tablet are synced. If the tablet dies I can still use the phone in an emergency. Albeit a very limited tiny screen. *Google: https://share.google/aimode/jHPiSmJJIoZhkflmZ

Who has the bass actually been stolen from? The only actual facts are that it didn't reach the buyer but was sent to Auction (possibly in error) by PF. In which case, the auction house would have contacted PF, said that someone had been in touch and pointed out the error. PF would then have to have the bass back to correct the error. Remember several people have now contacted the auction house to alert them. The auction house would have no way of verifying the actual owner of the bass or whether it was actually stolen. If the police had arrived at the Auction house then the same process would be followed. The theft is only alleged, and the identity of the person guilty of the alleged theft is unknown. The sender of the bass remains the property of the owner until the bass arrives with the buyer, and is supposed to be in the care of PF. Let them sort it out.

Sorry to report I have had a terrible accident. I accidentally drove to Camden tonight and bought a new gig bag. The old one was very tatty. Unfortunately the bass I had ordered to just try out, also accidentally left the shop in the bag after I accidentally paid for both of said items. A terrible state of affairs. I now have 4 basses! I am practically a hoarder now.

No. They don't. There will be a THD% accompanying the X Watts at 1kHz. That will tell you how much distortion the amp suffers at that output. The lower the better.
