Adams live bass

THE place for your Sisters-related comments, questions and snippets of Sisters information. For those who do not know, The Sisters of Mercy are a rock'n'roll band. And a pop band. And an industrial groove machine. Or so they say. They make records. Lots of records, apparently. But not in your galaxy. They play concerts. Lots of concerts, actually. But you still cannot see them. So what's it all about, Alfie? This is one of the few tightly-moderated forums on Heartland, so please keep on-topic. All off-topic posts will either be moved or deleted. Chairman Bux is the editor and the editor's decision is final. Danke.

Anyone got any idea what bass Adam plays live? I know the kit list of the site obviously, but not having seen him play it live I don't know which he uses.

Just interested.

I think he uses the Alembic Bass on stage...

"Alembic bass
Small and perfectly formed. Goes all the way down. Tried about forty basses in one day, some even more expensive. No competition"

To answer my own question (in case anyone else cares)

It appears to be the Wal bass.

So there you go.
