Oh yeah, i forgot about mike watt, he uses a EB-3 'SG' style bass doesn't he?

Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't DeDe use a white 70's Fender Squier?

It was actually a white and black mia fender. the squire vm p bass is modeled after it. paul from the clash used the same bass same with sid vicious

I say Ric's aren't punk- they cost too much.

lower class brats bass player uses one sometimes but they are kinda big for a punk band so they can afford it

every punk band Ive played with , opened for, shared a show with, etc have, for the most part, used either P-bass or MM..I used a P-bass for years and years, but am using a Ibanez neck thru now...I can almost get the p-bass sound through amp configurations and onboard EQ tweaknig.
