A one-off, signature bass guitar autographed by folk and rock icons such as Robert Plant, Ralph McTell, Steve Ashley and Danny Thompson is being auctioned for charity.
The acoustic bass was was made for Dave ‘Peggy’ Pegg of Fairport Convention and can be seen in action in the band’s most recent YouTube video of their new song, John Condon.
After the death from cancer of his former pub landlady, Tracey Bullard, Peggy decided to put the guitar – now decorated with many folk and rock stars’ autographs – up on Ebay to raise money for Katharine House Hospice, where Tracey was cared for in her final days.
Peggy said: “It’s been renamed the Tracey Bullard Signature Bass after a lovely lady called Tracey Bullard who lived in Barford St Michael and used to run our pub up the road, The George . She sadly died last year and spent her last week in the wonderful Katharine House Hospice.
