Thats was tasty .Did you get it Jake?

The bass that Sid 'plays' looks to be a modded BurgandyGlo 4001 that must be 1978 or before (to fit in with the time the film was made).The pick-ups look to me to be those from a Jazz Precision and they have been set at an angle.I know Glen's Rick was a BurgandyGlo 4001 so maybe this is the one that ...
