Posted on by

Sam messaged me this morning to let me know about this new Ebay item: a custom Ibanez Bass used by former Tool man Paul D’Amour. According to the description:

Designed per Paul’s specifications in the Ibanez custom shop.
Silver w/mirror pick guard, Maple neck, Badass bridge and humbucking pick-ups. (Body was damaged in the heat of battle but solidly repaired)
ONLY ONE MADE!

Auction includes case.

Was played on stage during some of Paul’s final shows with the band.
(can be signed by Paul on request)

It’s a nice looking bass, and the price is US$3,750.

March Tool Newsletter, Other Stuff!

Posted on by

I had a busy day yesterday ingesting more beer than my body can safely hand.  Fitting then that Blair releases the March 2011 Newsletter on Toolband that get the collection nuts of Fourtheye abuzz with excitement.  Here’s an excerpt:

In the spirit of this newsletter about Tool memorabilia, "Merch" is going to be putting some nice stuff in the store tomorrow (consider this a head’s up). These items will include vintage tee-shirts (those now out of circulation), tour posters (maybe even a couple of signed ones), and at least one real gem that will have some fans salivating. In the meantime, keep hunting for those Tool rarities. They would sure look good next to that souvenir tour poster that you purchased at the last show.

Well all love a bit of Tool merch, and I know many of you have been hitting up Toolarmy in readiness for this sale, however as I write this tomorrow has yet to arrive and there are no goodies on the site.  Perhaps tomorrow tomorrow… Looks like stuff is there – check the Collectibles section!

In other news, A Perfect Circle will be announcing on-sale details for their summer tour on the 4th of April.  Presumably this will be the times that tickets go on sale and at what outlets.  There doesn’t seem to be any sign of further dates, however there is plenty of speculation (and a gap in the schedule) suggesting that A Perfect Circle could be one of the acts on Lollapallooza this year.

Speaking of APC, drummer Josh Freese has released another range of unique purchase options for his latest EP My New Friends.  The $75k package which included a ride in Danny’s Lamborghini was offered, and as I write this appears to have finally sold to someone!  Presumably it was purchased for me as a gift for my birthday later this month – thanks in advance!

Tool merch is cool and all, but nothing would beat owning a genuine piece of Melvins history!  Point your credit cards at this Ebay auction and buy King Buzzo’s old Hiwatt Cabinet.  Current bidding puts it at US$405.  Bargain!

A Perfect Circle track recorded? Newsletter + Tool goodies on Ebay

Posted on by
24

According to a recent tweet by Antiquiet (and also on Billy Howerdel’s Facebook so I hear):

Maynard and I just got done tracking some vocal for a new APC song

Hopefully this means we’ll see a new A Perfect Circle track sometime in the not too distant future.

As I posted a few days ago the December Newsletter was just released.  Now I’ve had a chance to read it, here’s a few things I’ve picked up:

  • Tool are still writing for the next album and we probably shouldn’t expect a release until late 2011
  • Adam has been in the UK doing stuff, and depending on how you read it, could have recorded with Robert Fripp, had something repaired (a guitar amp perhaps) or just had some beers.
  • Things are maybe happening as far as the various Tool websites are concerned.
  • Maynard is enjoying some more winemaking
  • Tool nearly supported Rush in Brazil (or may do so in the future).
  • Aaron Harris might post some notes from the road for us.

Feel free to add anything I missed below!

Finally hold your light from Toolarmy has had to reluctantly sell some of his Tool related goodies on Ebay.  Here are the links:

Happy Bidding!

Undertow Master, Adam Oil Paintings, BDO Updates

Got an email today from Rick, who is selling what he claims to be a Master recording of the Undertow album on DAT tape. From the Ebay sale page:

There is not much to explain I mean this is the real deal . It was obtained from a personal friend who knew people who worked at larrinkin Management.

This particular MASTER RECORDING is for the Cassette Version. NEVER in the history of ebay have anything has ever been available like this. This DAT cassette is even before any testpressing. Straight from the studio.

Buy it now price is US$1500. Considering the Aussie dollar is almost worth the same as the US dollar then someone from Down Under with more money than sense should have a go at it…

According to a recent post on Toolband, Adam has an Oil Painting on display at a gallery in New York. According to the post:

A new original OIL PAINTING by ADAM JONES will be among the artwork on display at the ALTERNATIVE PRESS 25th ANNIVERSARY EXHIBITION hosted by the SLOAN FINE ART GALLERY in NEW YORK CITY. The special THREE-DAY SHOW will be held between THURSDAY, OCTOBER 21st and SATURDAY, OCTOBER 23rd, from NOON – 6PM.
For collectors and others who are interested in buying fine art, ADAM’s painting is FOR SALE. Please CONTACT the GALLERY for purchasing information.

SLOAN FINE ART
128 RIVINGTON STREET
(On the Lower East Side of NYC)

Finally, Big Day Out‘s in Sydney, Gold Coast, Adelaide, Melbourne, Auckland and Perth are now mostly on sale. Sydney and the Gold Coast have sold out, with a new Sydney show to go on sale on the 11th of October. Those still wanting Gold Coast tickets can enter a ballot to do so. Visit the Big Day Out page for details. I believe the Melbourne event is sold out as well, though I think you may still be able to get them from Ticketmaster. There will probably be a ballot for this show as well. I’d expect Auckland, Adelaide and Perth to sell out in the coming weeks…

Still no news on sideshows!

A Perfect Circle related goodies on Ebay

A couple of A Perfect Circle related items have found their way onto Ebay, and to while away the time while we await the Big Day Out announcement I’ve decided to post them:

First up is the A Perfect Circle snowboard we heard about a few weeks back.  You can find it here, when I looked at it bidding was at US$790.  The auction ends in 2 days time so if you’re planning to make a bid then don’t wait too long!  All proceeds go to the Edward Willie Cancer Fund.

The second item is a platinum record wall mount of Mer De Noms, with 20% of the proceeds going to Habitat For Humanity.  It’s also on Ebay going for considerably less than the snowboard – US$152 when I last checked.

Bill sent me an email yesterday letting me know that one of the customised posters done by Adam for the 2007 tour has found it’s way onto Ebay.  The cool tour posters were based on a cool looking print, and then further customised be Adam, in this instance he drew a picture of a weird looking dude no dissimilar to one found in Tool videos.  Starting bid is $500, do be prepared to spent a bit on this…

Those with a more modest budget may be interested in Jeremy’s auction of a tour poster he picked up in Atlanta last year.  This poster is at a much more tasty $50:

Rare Aenima Master CD on Ebay

Posted on by

Amer contacted me today and asked my to plug his Ebay sale of an extremely rare copy of Aenima.  His description can describe it better than I can:

"A [studio master is a] recording that, presumably, has been mastered at the same studio it has been mixed at. Most recordings are mastered at a mastering facility. For security purposes (since this was a CD made before Ænima was released for public consumption), the cardboard sleeve has been numbered."

These were released in limited numbers (no one knows how many) and distributed to radio stations almost 15 years ago. This copy is #391. An overwhelming majority have been lost or destroyed, making this the rarest Tool promo item, ever. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise :) I have owned several Aenima promo vinyls, signed Cesaro Summability promo vinyls and signed Lateralus vinyls, but they do not come close to this item in rarity.

The only other copy I ever saw for sale in all my years of collecting was on this obscure Taiwanese(?) auction website more than 5 years ago. I will be surprised if you see another one of these for sale for years to come. Don’t miss out.

The disc has only been played once by the original owner, and is in mint condition. The cardboard sleeve is in excellent condition for its age, with minor edgewear.

I’ve not heard of this particular edition on Aenima, then again I’m not a huge Tool collector, so I can’t really comment on it’s rarity. Either way it sounds interesting, and I’m sure that Tool collectors out there would jump at the chance to grab the piece Tool’s history.

The price is currently at $5 (I couldn’t help myself) and there is a reserve, which I’d hazard to guess would be north of $500.
