Double Bass EUB in rock

[ChrisCharleston]

Hello

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.

I believe one is used in the band Moe? There's an advert in the back of BP mag showing an NS played by their bassist....

Bare Naked Ladies (more Pop than Rock) bassist plays URB, EUB, bass guitar.

Also Tony Levin, plays NS Design EUBs.

Les Claypool of Primus fame plays an NS on occassion too...

A few Counting Crows tunes as well (Ampeg EUB I believe).

I've seen Colin Greenwood of Radiohead with an NS EUB a couple times.

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.
