Conan Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Eek! That's a heck of a premium just because it was owned by a mediocre bassist with a big tongue... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bass Doc Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Why should a bass being owned by someone relatively well known make it ten times it's actual value? Never quite understood that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the boy Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 [quote name='The Bass Doc' timestamp='1330982492' post='1565905'] Why should a bass being owned by someone relatively well known make it ten times it's actual value? Never quite understood that. [/quote] It's only worth that much to a handful of people, of that handful only one or two would have the moolah and the balls to buy it. This guy is having a punt if the right person sees it he will get a sale if they don't he won't. My buddy had a jazz bass about 20 years ago that was owned and played by Noel Redding of the Jimi Hendrix experience. He also had a strat that was played and signed by Rory Gallagher. It was a session guitar Rory had played quite a bit, Picked them both up for small money as well. I bet they're worth a few quid now.
