bnt Posted September 6, 2008 Share Posted September 6, 2008 (edited) Looking for info, I found an interview with him on the Wham days. He hasn't talked gear so far, but I can see that he likes Status Graphite these days... He just casually mentioned that he did Elton John's [i]Nikita[/i] - top flight fretless work on that one. edit: he talks gear at about 10 minutes in, showing off the LEDs... first time I've seen a Status with a pickup cover. 8) Edited September 6, 2008 by bnt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doctor_of_the_bass Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 He used to use an early '60's Jazz bass (he had a collection of them) and a Trace rig on the Wham stuff. Always sounded great! I've heard it mentioned that David Paton (he of `Pilot' fame - remember `January'?) played bass on Nikita, or was it John Giblin?!!! Hmmm.
