.... anyone notice anything odd in the description?

[warwickhunt]

I'd need some 'serious' proof it was owned by JB before I paid a tenth of that figure.
I see that it isn't a Thumb bass (which might fool idiots as JB did play Thumb basses) and the seller will give you a photo of Jack's collection... but not with this bass I'd guess!

[markstuk]

And every picture I see of him with a Thumb it appears to be a fretless one.. With an Ebony fingerboard..

[Trueno]

Never seen Jack with one of them.

[Grangur]

Funny how they also only seem to be able to muster 1 photograph of the bass.

I've asked him for a pic of Jack with an FNA cos I can't find any.

Aside from the fact that Jack Bruce did not play fretted Warwicks or FNA models that I'v heard of, £8,500?!!

Have you seen this one at the Gallery?

Somehow I expect this one IS genuine.

Haha one for a collector, but that is at least the same bass Jack used!

He did mostly play a 4 string though

On request he's now added a photo of Jack with a lot of instruments he wasn't particularly associated with 😤

[jimbobothy]

... it is indeed in the picture, still it's a corvette though!

[Schnozzalee]

Jack's associated with a Fender VI and a Danelectro Longhorn. I've never heard of the others in the photo, but it's nice to see the Seller's telling the truth.
