CPBassman Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Perhaps you should keep it and offer sessions on it. £100 a day in local rehearsal studio or fully insured rental. Id hire it for some studio work. A few issues to look into but if Nick Mason can rent out £2000000 Ferraris it surely must be viable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AttitudeCastle Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 [quote name='garethox' post='1313652' date='Jul 23 2011, 11:19 AM']I know Andrea (the guy in Italy). He is a collector who has numerous rare instruments - Alembic Spyder etc etc. Good guy who takes care of his gear. Why? Simple really. I always said I was passing through the Buzzard's life and I have for two years. My girls are getting older and the money can be put to very good use elsewhere. I am definately not bored of how she looks or plays, it is quite simply the greatest bass I have ever played and the fact it was The Ox's is a huge thrill every time I pick her up.[/quote] Ah makes sense! Gareth is great guy so anyone looking at this considering it, he is a real gentleman to deal with, and you will be getting a well loved and cared for instrument!

There are few basses that can be considered utterly unique and irreplacable, and you've got one there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
