Looks like the bass Colin Moulding played in the video for "Mayor of Simpleton".

Didn't see the video for that, but the bass that's on the recording is a Wal Custom.

That headstock is hilarious! Image

At least the guy isn't asking 5 bills for it. Who knows, maybe it plays OK for a $200 guitar?

Not sure if it's a Rickenbacker copy, or Mosrite
