In the 1990s, a British guitar store had 50 of its Steinberger basses stolen, with Pink Floyd collaborator Guy Pratt losing one of his prized four-strings during this time. The thief, it turns out, used the guitar’s design against it.
Session ace Pratt, who has also worked with Gary Moore, Michael Jackson, and Whitesnake, has a podcast, the Rockonteurs, with Spandau Ballet guitarist Gary Kemp. On it, Pratt explained how his bass was swept up in the series of thefts that had a London guitar store perplexed.
