BassBod Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 I may be able to find out (a friend used to play with him in JM's band) but I'd guess its a custom neck on a Jbass, with DiMarzio J's. Always sounded like there's a coating on the fingerboard...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philw Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 (edited) If I had to guess who "Paul" might be I'd suggest luthier Paul Herman - guitar maker to the stars (well some of them) and the man behind the promised second coming of Wal. Phil PS. And yes Alan Thompson is a great player. Saw him many times playing that bass in JM's band. Last I heard he was playing a Gougi - www.gougi.com/fr/atelier/ed/basse/index.html Edited February 9, 2009 by philw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
