ZZ TOP Bassist DUSTY HILL's 1953 Fender Is Second-Highest-Selling Bass In Auction History
It sold for nearly three times the pre-sale high estimate after a nearly seven-minute bidding battle (estimate: $80,000-$120,000).
The sale of this signature Fender is now the second highest sold bass guitar at auction behind Paul McCartney's Yamaha BB-1200 bass sold in 2021 and in front of Bill Wyman's Fender Mustang sold in 2020.

OMG. I can’t believe the Alembic only went for $6500. Its a Series bass. It would sell for 10k on Reverb even if it wasn’t Dusty’s.

Gear that stars didn’t use onstage doesn’t sell for as much.
