I know that Lemmy didn't play on this one...but does anybody know what bass is used by his predecessor on the LP?

It sounds Ric -like in place, especially in parts of 'Masters Of The Universe'.

I read in Lem's autobiography that when he joined - or got the gig - the previous bassist had not turned up, but left his bass behind. Wonder if that was a 4001?

What I read he started with a Hopf in Hawkwind. You can see him with a non Rick in early Hawkwind pictures.

[edit] I did some googling and found over here that a certain Dave Anderson was Hawkwind bass player before Lemmy and appeared on in search of space . A Pic of him is over here
