I think Sepp would agree with you. :D

That does not look like his original Jetglo 4080/12.......


It looks to have the original bridge, original pickups on the 12-string part and the tuners look to be the standard Klusons...

Yep. So his original Jetglo doubleneck is still in a museum.

I called SRO/Anthem (Rush's management) way before any details of the show were known and I offered up the use of my Jetglo 4080/12 at the 6/19 Toronto show that I attended.
They told me "thanks but Geddy is covered"....I thought hmmmm, OK, and then I saw these pics from rehersals and the doublenecks were on racks in the back of the photo...I was stunned.

Would have been cool to drive to Toronto with that beast for Geddy to use live...hey, I tried.

The show was great. 48 Rush concerts since 1981. Time went by real fast. Kind of a Rush. :D

Sepp, I just got home from hearing her sing on Red Barchetta tonight in Las Vegas. Oh....My.....Lord!!!!!! It was the most perfect sounding bass of the entire night. Even better than the 4080 (by far!) which was suffering in the mix at that time. She sang like it was the last song in the entire world to sing.
Bruce,

Thanks for the report buddy!! That makes me feel good! Geddy & Skully fawned over her in a few interviews I''ve seen. She was a wonderful instrument. I wish I had fotos of me gigging her when she wore her horsie pup. She has the smoothest toaster (short pole) that I've ever had the pleasure of playing. Thick buttery smooth, what a joy!!
