Nice black on black 4003, shown here in a clip of my favorite Cure song. This is from 2002 I believe. Dark!

Always loved Simon! I made 2 different bands of mine cover Fascination Street!

I think Simon's black on black 4003 sounds perfect for the first part of that Trilogy DVD.. especially on "A Hundred Years" and 'Fountainhead". Clanky and dark. Fascination Street is fun to play. Another cool bassline from Simon is "Sinking" from Head on the Door.

What's that hollowbody bass he plays? A Gibson? I'm kinda hankerin' to try one of those out...

(this is how GAS begins..)

Is it an old EB2? Plus I think he has a Schecter signature bass now - not sure if it's a hollowbody or not though.

It was made by Dick Knight..he was a pretty famous English luthier. What a beauty!!
