[color=#141414][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,]He used 4 basses during the first Knotfest concert.[/font][/color]
[color=#141414][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,]Well folks, I'm not sure about 2 bass guitar. Write your guess below, if you know them. [/font][/color]

[color=#141414][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,]I'm also not sure about his amp, because it wasn't on the stage, but in the "The Devil in I" music video he's playing on a Mesa Boogie. I think it was Pulse 600 model.[/font][/color]

[color=#141414][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,]Here are the guitars:[/font][/color]
[color=#141414][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,]Yamaha Billy Sheehan Signature bass (Modded): The neck pickup and 2 control knobs aren't there.[/font][/color]
[color=#141414][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,] [/font][/color]

[color=#141414][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,]This second one is a bit tricky. It has an acryl body. It looks like a fender P-bass with some kind of humbucker in the middle, but the neck and the headstock look like a Kramer which is aluminium.[/font][/color]

EDIT: Electrical Guitar Company custom order. Thank you bartelby!

[color=#141414][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,]Finally, I'm not sure about the last two. They also look like a P bass, but the bridge is different and also the headstock. The finish of the body is unusual and one of them has a shiny metallic frame. They also have only 1 control knob (probably volume control). My far guess is these guitars are Warmoth Custom basses. Correct if they are not. [/font][/color]

I would agree the second is probably an [url=http://www.electricalguitarcompany.com]Electrical[/url] they seem to be making quite a few instruments with clear acrylic bodies.

The third one could be a [url="http://www.jamestrussart.com"]James Trussart[/url].

No idea about the last.

Sorry to re-open this thread but I just saw them tonight and he was using 2 basses. Both of which were Status basses (I can't say the models as I know bugger all about Status basses) but one was headless with Green LEDs (which were bright as a bright thing) and the other was a headed model with just the one pickup.

They sounded really nice when I could actually hear them!

Should be a good gig, with them and korn together . I'm not a huge fan, but I find the new album so -so. Custer tho ' , is the nuts !

Is joey playing on that , or was he gone by then?

I could be wrong but I am sure I remember in TG Jim Root saying he played the bass parts on the album. The bassist (and the other replacement, drummer maybe?) are only considered as gig players and are not officially part of the band. Might change though.

Yeah CameronJ he was using two Status basses at download the other week too. One was deffo the orange-ish series 3, I reckon the other could have been a series three too or possibly a stealth. Was quite surprised to see a metal band using these tbh but at least he's shopping local ;-)
