warwickhunt Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 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 Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 And every picture I see of him with a Thumb it appears to be a fretless one.. With an Ebony fingerboard.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trueno Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Never seen Jack with one of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grangur Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Funny how they also only seem to be able to muster 1 photograph of the bass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spectoremg Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 I've asked him for a pic of Jack with an FNA cos I can't find any. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Aside from the fact that Jack Bruce did not play fretted Warwicks or FNA models that I'v heard of, £8,500?!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grangur Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 He did mostly play a 4 string though http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iPMykMtOoXk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spectoremg Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 On request he's now added a photo of Jack with a lot of instruments he wasn't particularly associated with 😤 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbobothy Posted October 13, 2016 Author Share Posted October 13, 2016 ... it is indeed in the picture, still it's a corvette though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schnozzalee Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 (edited) 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.
