Simon's black bass guitar in the TRILOGY gig...

Hey Cure Fans!

I'm a bass player (The Cure covers and own songs) but I couldn't find out what Simon plays on the Trilogy DVD --> Disitegration Set (Except the one song played on Musicman Stingray). This shiny black semi-acoustic Bass. That's not a Gibson EB-2 nor the Epihpone Jack Casady....what the hell is that??? Can anybody help....I'm "googled to death"...;-) Thank you very much!

Cool to have the CureForum now!
BYE!!!

I never notice his guitar...

because I'm always distracted by his tight fitting trousers...we call them pants but I think in the U.K. pants are underpants and I also think about those too so nevermind.

I am also usually too busy looking at him...

...however my husband knows basses. I just asked him, and he said "I don't know, Simon plays a lot of weird basses I've never seen before". (Obviously he doesn't know as much as he thinks!)
Sorry, that was no help at all was it?

it's an Eccleshall 335.

they are hand made in the uk. last time i enquired they cost nearly £2000 if you have the active pick-up version. when you collect them from the workshop they will set it up exactly how you want it. old man hook(new order/joy division)has one also. here is a link to it on the eccleshall website http://www.eccleshallguitars.co.uk/335bass.html
