Guitar auction, New York

David's old cream-coloured Strat, up for auction later this month

If you're tired of waiting for the Signature Strat, and perhaps have more money than sense, then one of David's old guitars is going up for auction at the end of the month, in New York.

The guitar in question is a Fender Stratocaster: a vintage '57 re-issue, serial number V010612.

In a cream finish with three-ply pickguard, it even comes with strings and a plectrum.

David's modifications, typically, include a shortened tremolo arm, EMG SA pickups and SPC/EXG tone-boost circuits.

This guitar, by the way, was taken on the road for the last two Pink Floyd tours.

The auction takes place at the Hard Rock Cafe on Broadway on 31 May.

Estimate? $4,000 to $6,000.

See also Lot #299 (wooden spoon signed by John Lennon and Yoko Ono) and a rather tatty container for Elvis Presley's multi-vitamins (Lot #246).

Go on, do tell: Which three items of music memorabilia would you most like to find beneath your (presumably very large) Christmas tree? We're all wondering.

Just three. Don't be greedy.




Falls jemand das nötige Kleingeld hat und nächste Woche noch nichts vor ...

@ KatzenHai

war aber klar das die nicht nur 6000 einbringt, da kostet ja eine normale custom shop nicht weniger.
