timmo Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 In Harrods yesterday, they had a beautifully cased bass that was owned by Roger Waters and a guitar that BB. King used. The Roger Waters Fender apparently used during The Wall with Pink Floyd was $9995 and the BB. King Epiphone guitar was only £6995.If i had the money i would buy them even if overpriced.If you are ever in London, it is worth a look as they are peices of art the way they are mounted. It is in the millionaires roww in the technology department Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junkyard Rocket Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 if they were any good Rog & Riley wouldn't have flogged them off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassman Sam Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 [quote name='Junkyard Rocket' timestamp='1369006650' post='2083965'] if they were any good Rog & Riley wouldn't have flogged them off. [/quote] Wrong. The guys that put them up for sale would know that the history of them would bump the price up. They will likely get a cut of the sale price.The feel of them might not be right for you or me but their ownership makes them special.

Grangur Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Not a bad life is it where GAS will ALWAYS give you a profit margin like that? We shouldn't forget, however, Harrods will be taking a good% cut in profit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were knackered by that point though (been in the Natural History Museum most of the day), so didn't search the whole place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
