Cliff Williams and Alembic?
« on: September 07, 2014, 01:11:40 PM »
I found this yesterday in the booklet of AC/DC's Live at Donington DVD, looks like Cliff Williams had an Alembic pickup in his P bass:
 

 
Alembic and Mesa monstrous combination  
 
I must have heard/seen this bass irl, Monsters of rock '91 was the first arena show I've attended  (AC/DC, 'tallica, Queensryche and Black crowes in Nijmegen sept 1)
Damaged Justice, Dutch 'tallica tribute: Facebook, Youtube

'83 Spoiler
'88 Spoiler
'99 Orion 5 fretless
'10 Elan 5
'23 Series II Europa 5

Good eyes to spot.  I wonder if he played with active or passive electronics in that bass.
