kaleb Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Jack Bruce played an EB-0 and EB-3. The bass player from Free played an EB-3. The bass player from Mott The Hoople played a Thunderbird. Former Frehley's Comet bassist John Regan sometimes played a Thunderbird (at least in the video for Ace's cover of "Do Ya" in 1989). Chuck Garric of Dio, L.A. Guns, Alice Cooper and the Eric Singer Project plays an LP bass. Mike Dirnt used to play a Grabber. Rudy Sarzo sometimes uses an EB-0. The bass player for Scorpions (I always forget his name) played a non-reverse Thunderbird once and a while. Chas Chandler played an EB-2 back in the day. I have seen pictures of Aerosmith's Tom Hamilton with an LP bass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaolee Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Well, I guess not that many..... But then - there's all of us! Yep. I was going to say "I play one." Well, two, more or less. The EB-2 is a Gibson and the Thunderbird is an Epiphone, but it is a Gibson design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
