The Ozark Tracey Bullard Signature bass.

This unique acoustic/electric bass guitar was made by Ozark for Fairport Convention bassist Dave Pegg as his ‘signature model’ The bass never went into production so is totally unique.

Peggy played it at the Cropredy Festival several times. Just before the 2014 festival Tracey Bullard, a dear friend of the band and a former employee of the festival, sadly was taken by cancer. She spent her last days at Katharine House Hospice in Adderbury, Oxfordshire. Dave wishes to raise money for her wonderful carers at Katherine House by selling the bass as a charity auction here on eBay.

The bass is signed by many of the musicians who attended the 2014 Cropredy festival including Robert Plant, Steve Hackett, Ralph McTell, Danny Thompson, Fairport Convention , Steve Ashley, Bob Harris, Matt Pegg and many more.

The bass is active with a magnetic pick up and a blender control to mix the acoustic bridge p/u. in with the magnetic p/u.

In pristine condition with hard case.

Please check out this youtube clip of Peggy playing and describing it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J9AxZkYFgrA

"Thanks and please support, Cheers, Peggy"

Happy for local collection, otherwise (and particularly if outside the UK) we will need to mail it via courier - it usually ranges from £90 and above for international deliveries, depending on your location. In its case the bass weighs 7kg, dimensions are 125cm long x 47cm at widest point and 18cm deep.


It's on Ebay - bids finish 20 March 0905hrs.
