I was in Nashville yesterday and saw a mid-40s S-9 offered for the price of $7,500. It had been autographed by Johnny Cash but $7,500??

So, er, about $5500 for the autograph?

Early Supreme model Kays in good shape can sell for $3500 these days, but the rest of that price is for memorabilia's sake.

Now if that was Marshall Grant's Cash era bass, maybe it would be worth that!
