BlackandRising	All That Glitters Ain't Gold....Sonny's Bass??? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eB...egory=4713 I must have missed out on the Gold shows, cause I don't remember this. Check it out, it's a pretty tight bass. I knew Sonny was left-handed, but I never knew that he played with the strings strung right-handed on a l/h bass. Interesting.

That bass is also at Paisley Park. Obviously not the exact same one. This e-bay model may be the prototype.

Sonny is playing Prince's bass (not re-strung for a lefty) upside down, in the I Like It There video. I thought that it was just laziness for the video shoot, but I guess he plays it this way...

If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot.
