  1. Seems Adam has a number of Gibson Bass guitars that he's used in the studio, that he doesn't use live... such as the Thunderbird seen in R&H...



    He has a Thunderbird and a Reverse Thunderbird. I've never seen him use either live.

    I've seen AB studio era photo's of Adam with the Reverse Thunderbird Bass and it was in The Fly video.



    He also had the Gibson Recording Bass, used for ONE and SOMETIMES... (studio versions) that he's not used live.



    And there is the Gibson RD Artist bass, used for "Trying To Throw Your Arms Around The World" (studio) but not used live.

  2. Originally posted by bcgdDoes anyone know if Adam's ever used his Thunderbird live? I know it's listed in the Rattle and Hum book but the only shots I've ever seen of him with it are in the studio.


    There are things listed in the book that were 'on tour' but not used as they were backup items that did not see stage time. The Zon Legacy bass being one of the other items.
  3. Great pics. I was just pointed to this...



    You never really get a clear shot of the body but it's definitely a Thunderbird headstock.

    That was the Smile Jamaica show. So - cool - he did use it live at least at that one show.

    Here's When Love Comes To Town from the same show. You can see the Thunderbird a bit better in this one.



    ...and Angel of Harlem - same Smile Jamaica show.

  5. Speaking of SMILE JAMAICA...

    Here's Keith Richards playing Edge's red Clapton Strat in this one:

  8. What's up bitches?! Where did everybody go?

    Heh, maybe we did - happy 41st mate! . I had a question regarding guitars etc., but I've forgotten the bugger. As a result, pause for thought - I want an Explorer.lol.
