Clarky Posted June 17, 2014 Posted June 17, 2014 Shish kebab. Serial number 0008, Fender '52 P. I imagine BC's Rick would be up for that if he could sell a kidney .... Quote

flyfisher Posted June 17, 2014 Posted June 17, 2014 Funny thing this memorabilia business. Does the mere fact that Pino once played a particular bass [u]really[/u] add £12,000 to its value? I guess that's a rhetorical question (assuming it sells for that price of course), but I'm fascinated by the thought process that goes through someone's mind when buying things like this. And let's face it, it really is all in the mind! Quote

JapanAxe Posted June 17, 2014 Posted June 17, 2014 Hmmm... New King's Road are somewhat 'speculative' in their pricing, but should still fetch a good sum. Quote

Cairobill Posted June 18, 2014 Posted June 18, 2014 Fretless stingray? Not pre-89 and under 9.5 lbs is it? Quote
