Pete Trewavas of Marillion and his 4080/12
Never knew he played a Ric. Lovely pic, right?

Pete is one of my top three favourite bassists! His work with Marillion is phenomenal as well as with Transatlantic! I saw him in Montreal two years ago and had a chance to meet him! A dream come true!
On early Transatlantic shows, you see him playing his 4000 'flower power' bass!

Great pic, he's not a big chap but that 4080 looks good on him. Most of the early Marillion was played on a 4000, check it out, that Growl is all over the work

That pic is good enough to be in the book. And it is!
Took me a while to track down the photog, but finally did. Credit the shot to Linda Heath.

Marillion still exists?
I am impressed. I thought they did not survive the 80ies.

Yes Geddy did have two. Saw him use the jetglo one when they did the Hemispheres tour. Damn I,m showing my age. Apparently the jetglo one is in the Toronto area, but Geddy does not own it anymore. The white. Don't know.BAD RONBO, KiLLeR DWaRfS wrote:i remember geddy having one of those whiteglo 4080/6 ??? as well as the jetglo 4080/12.
