[/quote] Just because he collected this does not make him a nazi,its just an interesting period of history.

Maybe its real then.I cant really see anyone going to the bother to knock a fake up,just to sell it for a couple of hundred quid extra.Perhaps some models are slightly different.

Read further down its been very cleverly worded i think? "A Replica of the Fender Jazz Bass Geddy Used with Rush"

Cheers Bilbo ill have a go just getting to grips with my reading at the moment,you havent got a transcription of the bass for so what have you?

Rourke was wicked plus he was on smack a lot of the time and no one even noticed,i should imagine playing on heroin is quite an arduous experience.How the hell did he play so well on girl afraid while being strung out,amazing and very underated.

Im glad its not just me who thinks Canteloupe Island is crap.

Sweet thing on astral weeks bass line is more jazz i would say.

I should think they are probably ones someone has built for him like analog man i know he uses a few diy pedals peolple have knocked up for him.

Waving from across the bay at shotley.

I miss phil

The Hand of Inevitable by JTQ is a fantastic album yeah journey is a lovely piece.

What about groove collective whatugot is a well cool tune,i think the bass players called johnathan marron.

[quote name='Pookus' post='369360' date='Jan 3 2009, 04:45 PM']I thought it was Glen Matlock who played bass on Nevermind The Bollocks? I started playing bass in 1980 because of JJ Burnel's bass sound - he is still a big influence for me (along with Dave Alexander of the Stooges)[/quote] So did i till i watched classic albums,matlock played on the early stuff and gigs.The steve jones thing actually came from the producers own mouth so i assume it must be true.

Mine was usual great sounding boss quality but was a bugger for sucking tone,i sold it in the end.

That was steve jones chugging his low E on never mind the bollocks.

Cheers mate this is better than the transcription i have.Nearly got this nailed at speed now,this is going to well impress the birds when i pull it out the bag!

[quote name='BassBus' post='369304' date='Jan 3 2009, 04:37 PM']Having French parents might make him French but if he is he's [b]OUR[/b] French bass player!!! [/quote] I think jj burnel is brilliant the stuff on black and white is really raw,toiler on the sea is my favourite im a big cornwell era fan.I was well suprised to find out that burnel "took the other bus" sometimes, ie he is bisexual,well according to steve stranges autobiography anyway.

Alan gorrie is a wicked guitarist as well as a sh*t hot bassist i am proud to have stood in at an awb soundcheck in liverpool,shame it wasnt the full original line up with hamish stuart.

I wish they would hurry up and release best of the tube volume 2 on dvd.

I still think al murray and lenny "Nice Guy" henry are crap.

I like him its jools hollands booger wooger piano i cant stand.

lenny henry is not funny and i think al murrays sh*t as well,all that bawdie pub landlord thing thing he does is a load of crap.Come back tony hancock and bring rik mayall with you.
