Name that bass

[northstreet]

Did anyone catch The Noisettes gig being shown on the TV earlier today? Shingai was playing a stunning acoustic bass that looked (and sounded) nearly as big as her. Any ideas what it was? A serious GAS attack is brewing!

I think you'd need the all in one outfit and nail polish too though

I didn't see a good shot of the headstock unfortunately but I did notice how nice it sounded!

Didn't see it so don't know what it was, but is it the same one she plays in [url="http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/showbiz/music/article2334489.ece"]this[/url] video?

And from the interview with her in BGM from a couple of months ago she says she uses an Adam Black acoustic bass - so it may be that.

There's a thread [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=14339"]here[/url] about them. And the [url="http://www.adamblackguitarcompany.co.uk/artists/index-artists.html"]Adam Black site[/url] seems to confirm it (though not that it was the one she used today ).

Beat me to it, but as I edited my post it appears above yours!
