Further proof that some Pink Floyd fans smoked WAY TOO MUCH DOPE! 🤪

“the former Pink Floyd frontsmen’s most iconic instrument, the so called “Black Strat,” fetched $3,975,000”

One thousand times it's real value. IMO, of course.

How long was dark side of the moon number 1 seller?
How many copies sold?

It held the record for decades...

$4 million for that guitar?
I'm not a bit surprised.

Offer the buyer 5 million right now and I bet he turns ya down.

It's two suns in the sunset now.
So to speak....

Before this recent sale, SRV’s brown Strat, “Lenny”, which by the way was autographed on the back by Mickey Mantle sold for around $400K about 20 years ago. Then shortly after, Clapton’s Strat, “Blackie” sold at a charity auction for $1,500,000.

Personally, I think if Jimmy Vaughn ever sold SRV’s famous #1 Strat, it would break ALL the records.

I got to actually touch it once. 🤠

I think Gilmour is one of the most underrated guitar players that ever picked a guitar.

Don't know if this is the exact guitar under discussion but you can skip to 4:30 to hear it sing. Or just listen to the whole thing, it's all good.

Another sale that'll be interesting, hopefully in the VERY distant future, is Geddy Lee's 63 Ricky.
Buddy of mine from high school has had its identical twin since the late 70's. Not a famous instrument but I played a few songs on it.
He played everything Rush ever put out. My God, he could hammer a bass.

Glad to see others yet extant who appreciate talent.

Speaking of guitarists....
Any other Jeff Beck fans out there?

They might’ve smoked a lot of dope to have paid that much but they at least had the money to do so. 😁

I saw Jeff Beck live a couple yrs ago. He a was #1 on my list and did not disappoint. David Gilmore would be #2. I've seen Santana 3 times.

The guitar was purchased by the owner of the Baltimore Colts. I guess he has a considerable guitar collection. He also has been in trouble in the past for using illegal drugs.

Big Jeff Beck fan here. Love Love at Ronnie Scotts and the live rockabilly set with Imelda Mays band. Saw Beck at the Celebrity Theatre in Phoenix in 71 or 72. It was just after his album with Going Down came out. Small Venue and I was up front!

Saw Beck, Bogart and Appice at the Berlin Olympic Stadium in 1973, close to where Jesse Owens embarassed Hitler in 1936. They headlined a three day rock festival there. Hard to believe three guys could put out so much music.

Wasn't in the track field at top but in the amphitheater at the bottom of this pic. About four of us pitched our pup tents in the open space near the stage.

Didn't see Hitler there, I think he left early... wink

My friend fellow fiend...

I hate ya, bro.
Green with envy.

Would love to chat all night but Mrs Ah is calling saying "wish you were here".
Duty calls.
Even though I love flying pigs (and other assorted "animals"), "Wish" is still my favorite.
I'll cue that up on the turntable... and I believe I'll have some Cream for afters.
wink

Would love to talk all night.... but again I say, duty calls.
