Jason Newsted Is Selling Some Incredible Gear From His Career | Official Jason Newsted Reverb Shop

Jason just seems like a genuinely great person, I still cannot understand why rest of Metallica did him so dirty. For me Jason is even more important than Cliff , those late 80´s - mid 90s Metallica gigs are something special, Jason was a BEAST! Especially live.

[@ChristopherFoxglove]

No doubt. I can’t and won’t get into the nuances of interpersonal relationships. I understand the narrative that the rest of the band “did him dirty”, but I don’t personally subscribe to it. I don’t think we can/will ever know the fine details of how it all went down. Suffice to say, it didn’t work out. But you’re absolutely right about Jason’s importance being right up there with Cliff’s. The fact is that Jason was part of Metallica during the 10-year span where they were at their absolute peak-and he was a big part of it. ‘89 - 2000 or so. They were the biggest, baddest, most epic band on the planet. I hope we get to see Jason play something with those guys again, just for old times sake.

[@richieswisher8727]

It was because of Jason being such a nice guy that allowed them to walk all over him. Fuck Lars. Fuck James. I don't know about Kirk? He looks like he could be quite the diva. But I think ultimately he was Jason's friend. Imagine how they treat Rob... I saw Jason fill in as front man after James hurt himself riding a jet ski back in 99 or 00. Shit started to go sideways when they announced James wouldn't be there! Jason saved the show! After that many people had huge respect for him. I know I did! Jason is the man!

I was a bassist in high school, just like every other metal kid. I LOVED Flotsam and Jetsam. Jason was the whole sound to me. When he went over to Metallica, I was blown away. He is the first bassist that played with a pick, that I thought was cool. Youre amazing Jason!

Ah, those Alembics are beautiful. My one and only regret in all my years of bass & guitar playing is letting go of an Alembic Europa 4-string I briefly had back in the mid '90s. I didn't know enough to appreciate what I had and now Alembics are forever out of reach for me.

Just want to say that Jason is aging really well, he looks great and he's gotta be in his early 60s now. As someone in their mid-50s I can tell you it's a lot of work, discipline and dedication every day to achieve that, so whatever he's doing, it's really paying dividends. Aging can be hard, but you can really mitigate that and actually age well.

Sadly enough no one who would play it will be able to afford them. Jason was my original inspiration to play bass. Saw Metallica on their justice tour and I had to play bass after that. The man is a beast and I’ve loved everything he’s played on. Would sell my soul to have a bass from the justice era.

Cool stuff! Though probably not the droids people were looking for. I'm sure a lot of people were thinking he was selling his Wal's, Alembics, and Sadowsky's.

Kind of what Alex Van Halen did a few months ago with his big sale, we all need to accept the fact rocks stars are human, aging and getting older just like everyone else. Nobody is going to be here forever. Jason is not a young man anymore and has an abundance of wealth and musical equipment he no longer needs. This is a win-win. Jason can get rid of a lot of extra shit he does not need or will use anymore, while being able to still see his gear go to his fans or the next generation to keep the music going.

right? if they care that much about them having a new life it shouldn't be an auction. I don't have a good answer on how to make it fair but eliminating collectors, business' etc is a start but probably impossible to control. I think sellers should settle on a FAIR valuation and do some type of lottery system so money doesn't rule over the "second life intentions". Sounds like he wants collectors prices but would love people to play them, which would devalue the instrument by use over time, it's one or the other mr newsted
