I don't know whether it's the same one (correction: it IS the same one), but this one was sold in March for a reasonable sum: here.I did go to the viewing day when this was sold, but it was in a glass case and I didnt have the temerity to ask to play it. Apparently it still had a set list sellotaped to it from the last time Bukka played it.

I think calling it a holly relic was a bit over the top!

I think calling it a holly relic was a bit over the top! Maybe someone pointed out that it played a bit sharp...? Keith
