Any one own one or had a play of one?

The bass with the door knocker lion head, and multitude of pickups...

In all honest, I wouldn't be caught holding such a ugly bass.

Stanley Clarke

Clearly not his usual tone.

i also Knoticed he keeps Tweeking knobs in search of that fat 'Alembic Fullbodied tone!'

He's a knob tweaker anyway Keavin. When I've seen him live and on TV/DVD, he spends half the night tweaking.

You can get arrested for knob tweaking as many a famous pop singer knows..'Zip me up before you go go'

Mind you I bet most of us would know it was Stan just by the technique and phrasing even if we just heard the sound only and not seen the video.

That video was funny as heck...

Stanley puts the bass down so fast, it was as if he was going to collect his money for playing it, and with a look, of being done with it...

Ok, I did what you wanted, now it's my turn - where's my doe you owe me...

When he brought that hideous bass to the DC area, he used it for one song then went back to his Alembic.

It happen with old age... Stanley is getting up in age... His hearing is dissolving...
