Has anyone heard or seen anyone use an EUB in a rock context?
I saw a pic in Bass Guitar of john paul jones playing one
but i've seen little else.
And has anyone tried it?
Cheers
Chris

| | | | Sting. 1980's.
Listen to the bass tracks on "Synchronicity". Rumor is that he doubled/octaved many of his parts with the EUB. |

|  | It's a happy song about not getting what you want | | Join Date: Jul 2006 Location: NY, Just Like I Pictured It. | | | I saw The Police in the early '80s. Sting used one on "Every Breath You Take."
I've seen ads of Tony Levin using one in concert, but have never actually seen him use one live. |
