Sorry if this has been already mentioned, but I was on Stanley's site yesterday and spotted Black Beauty for sale. This is the instrument on the cover of 'I Wanna Play For You' with the bigsby Tremolo and composite neck. http://lh4.ggpht.com/MyJazzWorld/RujNqjxdDrI/AAAAAAAAAn4/DUknvb9_gYY/s288/StanleyClarke_IWannaPlayFor.jpg However, the purchase button doesn't yet work. :D Maybe he's already sold it? Anyone fancy a punt on the asking price? I don't know yet but he failed to sell his Smith Flying V on Ebay some years ago for $32,000 IIRC. |

I've just checked his shop this morning, and it looks like that particular page is down for maintenance. |

IIRC Black Beauty was for sale to benefit a charity last year...maybe there were no takers. I think the price was 130,000. At the time it was being sold through the Lieberman Spellbinder website. |
