The Pink Floyd guy is selling his guitars

Post by burpgun » Tue Feb 05, 2019 6:34 am

Not sure if this is the right place to put this news, but David Gilmour is selling his black Strat and a whole bunch of other guitars at auction. I can't imagine what would make him do such a thing, but here's a link to the news, in case you're in position to make a bid. https://www.christies.com/features/Davi ... 637-3.aspx

He's actually a pretty good guy from everything that I've ever heard, and I figure that he thinks he can sell his old guitars and do some good for someone with the money.

He says he's quite happy playing his Fender replicas of his famous guitars and sometimes can't tell the difference anyway, so he doesn't need a bunch of museum pieces.

So glad I wasn't the only one who thought this.
The cool thing about fretless is you can hit a note...and then renegotiate.

You're Shadowplay, this comment should have been prefaced by a mention that you do not like their music. :D
