Nick Sceats, a bass guitarist from New Zealand, found a bass worth quite a bit in the used pile of his local guitar shop. Rather than keep it for himself and/or selling it on EBay, he has returned it to it's rightful owner, Bill Wyman of the Rolling Stones.
With the guitar's history confirmed, it could be of considerable value. But Sceats air-freighted the bass back to Wyman on Thursday. He expects nothing in return.
"I'm just kind of doing the right thing in closing the loop," he said. "I don't see why he should pay for something that was stolen from him."
-- Update --
A reader asked me what I meant by "more evidence." Okay Tom, here's an example of what I'm talkin' about.
