20/20 on Ebay No reserve

[Hornisse]

Anybody here bidding on this boat oar! If not, my guy might want to be reunited with it's Red Neck Brother.............

I hope you get it.  I'm too fat for a bass like the 20/20.

I kinda like the 20/20 looks, actually.

Then again I like Devo too... 

Does this make me cool like Winger? 

[Basvarken]

I'm watching the auction.
I like the 20/20 because nobody else seems to like it (except Kip Winger)

[ilan]

I like the looks but not enough to place a bid.

You know, if you're going to do it, go all the way...

Is that the former Edgar Winter bass player? I once read that he had a bass integrated in his glam boiler suit, but never saw a pic.

The 20/20 is what it is. A period piece of today quaint, but then highly fashionable, yet nevertheless timelessly well-thought out design. Don't knock the poor thing.

High bid is stil low....

Is this the picture in the dictionary under 'bassackwards'?

That's Stig Pedersen (from Denmark, IIRC). Do an image search, you'll find more.

He plays a 2 stringer! Is that common amongst Danes?

It's common with Stig.

Wow, that must be a record for a 20/20

Dan Hartman of the Edgar Winter Group ! I remember reading about this back around '75 or so I think he said it cost 5k to have made!

Somebody had to want it a lot to pay about 3x what they usually sell for.

It will be interesting to see what happens next time one is listed.

I'm the guilty one........ I was figuring on getting it for about $800.00, but someone bumped it up to 1,255.00 at the last minute. If it wasn't Ferrari Red and in such good shape, I wouldn't have bit. The one Jules has & this one are the only two I've ever seen. Now I have the pair..........(either oar!)
I was surprised to see that much interest in it, 31 bids. The Luna Silver bass I bought about three years ago, sat in the store for over a year at $1,000.00. I offered him $800.00 & settled for $900.00 with a new, modifiable hardshell case.
If there really are only 12 of these in existance, as per Walter Carters guess, we have 4 of them on this board.
