It's been quite a while since I've logged in here.... I have to say that Chris Squire's early sound is a bit like the Kennedy Assassination. Likely a very simple truth lies at the core, but we'll never really get there. There are some guys on this forum, for instance Pete Greenwood, who can get you ...

I have one identical to this, a 1989 4003S with vintage pickups and surround. Bought it from a forum member years ago. Great bass!

You'll likely solve the Kennedy Assassination before uncovering the actual correct history of this bass...

Yea, just beware of the GC in Bakersfield, Ca. They recently shipped me a used Danelectro 12 String with missing strings and large, dirty fingerprints. Two calls to the store and both promised to send a new set of strings, but they never arrived. I can live without that level of customer service.

The Syndestructible CD is still, hands down, one of my favorite listens, start to finish, when I just want to mellow out without hearing any heavy soloing or other heavy work. It just brings me around. It's like Chris is right there in the room with me again. I wasn't able to listen to it for a long...

Just saw this on Youtube:

As an engineer / composer / guitarist, I would love to see more like this, as well as isolated tracks. Hope they keep it up.

Great thread resurrection! I enjoyed reading all the old posts and clearly, so much interest still exists for these basses. When I first met Chris Squire in 2008, we had a discussion about his MG model that I'll never forget. He had recently retrieved it after a long "absence" and I asked ...

Very nice, thanks for posting that video. Just for correctness, Chris passed on June 27th. The news went public on the 28th due to a tweet from Geoff Downes. My last conversation with Chris, at the hotel following the August 2014 Orlando show was a good one. Some time ago I had entertained the idea ...

A "Producer's Producer" to be sure. What talent, what an impact he had on an entire gereration. RIP George Martin.

Bump.... I'm just wondering what the status / outcome was for this instrument?

They can be found...

From Scotty Squire: My best friend and the love of my life Chris Squire will be cremated today in Scottsdale, Arizona at 3:00 pm. However, knowing Chris, he might be running a bit late for the event; After all, he has always been the 'late' Chris Squire. So at 3:00 pm Phoenix time, please take a mom...

Hello all, Chris is to be cremated today at 3 PM Phoenix time. Scotty asks everyone to set up your favorite Yes or Chris Squire song and play it at that time in his memory.

Thank you and RIP Christopher Squire.

Hello everyone, I just wanted to let you know that I just submitted my resignation as moderator of the RRF Band Forums. It was a decision long in the making and wasn’t easy. Shifting priorities require me to devote my time elsewhere and when I do have the time for guitars, I need to be playing them ...

Sure thing, Tom. I'm sure it's plastered all over that other fan site, if anyone still feels complelled to read it... Chris sure did have some wild getups back in the day. The only one I didn't get was "The Doctor"... who's idea was it to try to change his nickname? I lways wanted to ask h...
