Where is this Jazz Bass now and how much is it worth, I wonder.

Shocking technique. He'll get carpal tunnel in no time 😎

That can't be a full size bass, surely.

[Jazzneck]

I reckon it is - Hendrix was a tall bloke and had huge hands.

Could be, but it doesn't look any bigger than the guitar (is that Johnny Winter btw)

[Heathy]

Actually looks bigger in this shot

[Jazzneck]

Yup, it is Johnny Winters.

Are you sure it isn't his brother Bernie, or Schnorbet?

Deduction from a page / comment in Detlef Schmidt's book about Keith Ferguson.
This seems to be Tommy Shannon's Jazz Bass bass from when when he (Tommy that is) was playing with Johnny Winters band in New York, mid sixties.
Apparently Mr. Shannon still owns the bass and the picture in Detlef's book shows that is now more roadworn than a roadworn thing.
Your useless piece of info for the day, kiddies.
