Another "Please help ID this bass" thread

[berlihe]

Can anyone help ID the bass in the first band (Screaming Peaches) from this video?



There's never a good close-up of the headstock. You get a pretty good view of the whole bass from 1:05-1:10, and here are a couple screenshots where you can see the body pretty well:

To me it looks like some version of a Hofner 182/183 or some kind of Hagstrom, but I can't find any that have a switch on the upper horn like that (at least that's what I think I'm seeing).

Incidentally, this band is now defunct, but the lead singer/guitarist and keyboard player have formed an awesome new band, Wooze. Here's their latest video:



Thanks for your help! Just idle curiosity, really.

I have a photo that matches and it is labeled as an EKO Cobra.

I thought listening to the first three guitar notes at the beginning of the song it was going to be a new age version of soul man.

Thanks, that looks right! I've always kind of wanted an EKO rocket bass. And yes, I do think it's a little riff on "Soul Man."

Wow! In two posts! (actually one, not counting the question post) TB can be so amazing and helpful most of the time.
