    Anyone know what kind of bass(es) Jonesy was using at the O2 Arena show? It's hard to tell from the clips that are currently available online. The headstock of the bass he uses for "Black Dog" almost looks like a Tune bass.

    Any info?

    Yes, I'm already fully aware of Jones' affiliation with Manson guitars. However, from what I could see, he wasn't playing one at the O2 gig. His Mansons are primarily 10- and 12-string basses. He was playing a 4-stringer at the reunion.

    Anyone else know more about his bass/setup for this historic show?

    My apologies, lbwdog! You were totally correct. I just checked out some of JPJ's custom basses on the Manson Guitars website. Fantastic looking 4-stringed instruments there as well. That sunburst one is definitely the one he was playing in that clip of "Black Dog" I saw.

    Thanks again for your response.
