Not a bass, but my dad has a blonde '67 Tele supposedly owned by Robbie Robertson of The Band. He got it for $150 in the 80s because the bridge pickup was dead and it was from a friend who really needed some original Jaguar pickups, which he had from a Jaguar that he owned (and hated) in the 70s. He took out the neck pickup and put in two new EMGs because they were noiseless, Steve Lukather played them, and it was the 80s. He also owns a 60s Danelectro amp that was one of the house amps at Studio One in Jamaica.
