Wow, I'm droooling over the PIE amps and cases.
(already have some Lesh stage gear that would fill that right up :D )
thx Bill

Looks like the Modulus bass is gone already, I don't remember ever seeing him play the one that was up for auction. A few cool things along with some junk, stale cigarettes anyone?

I like the Little Blue Meanie animation cell and the Beyoncé double bass ($350 right now I think, not bad for a double bass)

Weird! The auction isn't until the middle of June, wonder what happened? He decided he didn't want to sell it anymore? I looked at the listing a few days ago, someone sent it to me. Then it was gone!

Not sure what happened but I am watching this week’s Shakedown Stream and it looks like Phil is playing the maple Modulus that was up for auction. So far I am not impressed with the sound of the bass but the playing by everyone is really good. 7/16/90, a week before Brent’s last show and ten days before he passed...

What an interesting auction.
The 7 packs of Pall Malls made me tilt my head.
I quit (again) 5 months ago, the struggle is real!
Then I saw his Leslie! 😎

It is the bass, huh? Agreed on the sound - it's pretty boinky if that makes sense. You're right about the playing too! (of course, when I typed that Jerry messed up the ending to Weather Report Suite! Oops...)
Hey, the Ken Smith is still there (https://www.julienslive.com/m/lot-details/index/catalog/320/lot/137975?url=%2Fm%2Fview-auctions%2Fcatalog%2Fid%2F320%3Fpage%3D3) - it's only at $42,000 so far...

Check out Lot #164 on page four. An Entwistle signed Exploiter made into a "Spider bass".
Bill, tgo

I saw that but didn't look closely enough - weird! Kind of cute but... Hey, it's already up to $4500!
Exploiter bass (https://www.julienslive.com/m/lot-details/index/catalog/320/lot/138020?url=%2Fm%2Fview-auctions%2Fcatalog%2Fid%2F320%3Fpage%3D4)

I think the suggestion is that JE himself did all the graphics on that Exploiter.

Look at the price this Stanley Clarke Signature bass sold for !!!!

Even for 10 years ago that $437.50 seems low. My new Orion 4 cost me £1000 in 2000. Do you think the pink Stanley Clarke signature put people off - as much as I admire him, it would put me off - I think it defaces a beautiful instrument.

I'm guessing the decimal is in the wrong place...
-
Yes - that would make sense as estimate was 2000 - 4000 dollars. Still.....PINK signature!

I agree though it wouldn't put me off buying it i would just have the signature removed. I have Stanley's signature on some of my basses but I took the control cavity plate and asked him to sign the inside so nothing shows to break the elegance fo the outer part of the bass.
