'Black special'

At last, I have something in common with David Gilmour. We are both selling off our knackered old guitars ... well, I am selling my prize unbranded Les Paul copy and Dave is selling a mere 120 Gibsons, Fenders and others, including his famous Black Strat.

One of the great advantages with photography, is that they can be made to look fantastic on a free listing on eBay (or a Christies exhibition in Dave's case).

The bidding is hot and is already up to £21. Gilmour's sale is advertising prices of $10,000-250,000 - but the bidding hasn't started yet, so I am ahead!
