    I win.

    This little old thing is insured for £250,000.

    I had it for a whole week.

    You can see my Cunetto behind.

    It is also the most wonderful instrument, aside from its provenence.

    I had it at home for 5 or 6 days and I had TGP foaming with my NBD thread. It took 4 posts until it was recognised.

    What's the provenance for those of us at the back who are hard of hearing and can't keep up?

    Gilmour's from 1968 until 1996. It was used on every Floyd track virtually as David used to record the studio basslines.

    Guy used it during the DSOT and PULSE tours and kept begging David for it. On his wedding day, he found it on his doorstep with a big pink ribbon around it.

    1960 Stack Knob Jazz. On the day pictured we did Run Like Hell and On the Turning Away.

    Gassage probably does win, but I still like this one better :).



    I apologise for the condition of the bench, I've since replaced the rotten woodwork and repainted the ends.

    a few of my old basses (wish I'd kept a few of them)

    httpwwwarrowheadguitarscoukpicssting1jpg

    I sold this (below) to someone in London and a couple of years later it turned up with @fretmeister who has since sold it (IIRC)

    did you used to have a green one of them Yamaha basses? I bought one from a chap on the old musicradar forum years ago. Naturally I've sold it it and regretted it since. As you do ...

    That Modulus was lovely, but too heavy for me. It was actually heavier than the Bongo 6 I had.

    It's a Sandberg Basic Ken Taylor signature 5-string
