ossyrocks Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Joint ownership is actually something people do. Joe Bonamassa and Charlie Daughtry buy guitars jointly and arrange periods of time when they reside with each of the two owners. It means they can buy really high end gear and enjoy it, but for half the price. Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rwillett Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Then I am following in the footsteps of giants. How much time do you think I would get with £500 for a 59 Les Paul owned by Bonamassa? I'm happy to let him have it for a few weeks a year as he does have a few gigs arranged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what he might say. I could probably ask him. Here's a pic from a few years ago, that's me at the back on the left sitting on the vintage Marshall playing a few licks on his '59 Les Paul "Carmelita", and Joe B himself playing rhythm for me on a '58 Les Paul previously owned by Mick Ralphs of Bad Company.

OliverBlackman Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 1 hour ago, rwillett said: So if 45 of us each do £500, we're there. That means we each get it for 194 hours per year. That's over a week, a whole week. I'm happy to act as the distribution hub so people can collect and drop off. No charge for this service. So we only need another 43 of us.... I wouldn’t sleep for that week 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ped Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 Fred keeps asking if the bass can be his when I'm dead, seems like he's hoping I'll snuff it soon! I said it'll be sold on the open market and if he wants to put a bid in, that's fine. 3 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This picture, it reminds me about the great headphones which where destroyed by my cat - the headphones died at age 10, but the cat died when she was 20. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since then the bass has remained in its case with his cousin.“ Blimey, how big’s the case?! Or how big’s the cousin?! We should get a few Gs knocked off as it will probably stink of dead cousin. Maybe a couple more if we promise not to get the law involved... 🤔 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dodgnofski Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 I had a ‘68 with Lollipops from the same timeline and the paint was starting to peel off on mine too (see pic) as it looks like it is on this - could have been a painting issue back then maybe? I was interested in this, but I’m too far away to collect & when I asked if he would consider posting it to me, he started saying that it would be completely at my own risk, wasn’t convinced that the homemade case would be strong enough to withstand the journey etc, etc☹️☹️ 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BassAgent Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 Got this nice array of Jazzes at home currently. From left to right: 64 (reissue), 1966, 1970, 1973. The '73 isn't mine. Yet. Maybe. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
