I'm amazed it's him!



Great team effort! Never would have found him without mep's investigations, and to be honest I'm still not exactly sure how I tracked him down.

I'm going to buy a suede waistcoat to celebrate :)

Be sure to post a photo of you in your waistcoat posing next to your rig :P

In fact, in celebration of our collective detective skills, our appreciation of 90's Bassist & Fran's new found legendary status on Basschat I propose that we all rummage in the back of wardrobes or ransack charity shops for waistcoats and pose with our bass in the the style of Fran next to our rig in our conservatories, porches or sun-rooms. Points can be awarded for attention to the original detail of the shot.

Right, where's me waistcoat.....................


PS whilst writing this post there were 2 guests looking at this thread. Was Fran one of them?

I have found my waistcoat and duly started the photo tribute to 90's Bassist & Fran.

Conservatory / Sun room location - Check
Waistcoat - Check. Ok it's leather but I bought it in the 80's
Flightcased Trace Elliot Head - Check
Twin speaker stack - Check
I'll award myself a bonus point for slipping in the original Bassist magazine ;)

Who's next?

Top effort mep
But I can't help thinking theres a scale issue with these two pics , Fran looks like he is short than his rig , You look like you are taller than your conservatory :P

I am disappointed that you haven't done your hair.

Reading through the trajectory of this thread I can only conclude that if Lord Lucan had played the bass we would have found him , no problem at all .

Nice one, although I don't think he has a web site which would gave him away.

I thought the same looking at the photo. I'd put him at 5' 7" with a huge stack. I'm 6' 2" with a mini stack :blush:

Sorry to spoil the party , but that mullet-with-a-spikey-top-bit hairstyle was outlawed by European Union Health And Safety Legislation back in the early 2000's . [u]DO NOT ATTEMPT IT AT HOME ![/u]
