A 20/20 on the 'bay!

[planetgaffnet]

I had a bit of a horn for one of these a few months ago...I just figured it might be a more whacky bass to use in the punky band I play in, but at the same time it still having a degree of credibility in an, 'Oh, it's a Gibson,' kind of way.

Woah! It went for $2025!

Whoa, indeed.

I'm speechless. This is the bass we all used to joke about - me included. I don't rule out that the Steinberg origin might be more of a value factor than the Gibson one. And of course, for design buffs, there is something pure about the 20/20. As paddles go, it also seems to be the best balancing one.

Somebody really wanted that. More likely, two people did and got in a bidding war.

Looks like I'm off the hook in the "Paid way to much for a 20/20" category!!

Yours will be on exhibit here someday



with a commemorative plaque for the "Grog Foundation", naw, make that "Grog Trust" and an audio installation of your favorite licks!

Which will go down in ebay history as "The Battle for the Paddle"!!!

I nearly fell of my chair when I saw the price that beastie went for...

High praise indeed.

Who knows... but sure looks like it from user a***b with their 31 feedbacks.  Won't be surprised if it pops up again.

Another bidder was right up there with 2K in the last few hours, though!  Yeaowch

It's just a plank of wood, with a neck bolted on it...................

Would an exhibit with two 20/20's be a 40/40?

I doubt it was shill bidding.

2X what they've sold for in other auctions makes me wonder if it will re-appear in a week "re-listed due to a non-paying bidder".
