:o

that doesn't look like craig on bass...

Image

and as far as i know, craig only ever played fender precision/jazz and gibson thunderbird bass guitars. i've never seen him using a rickenbacker before... :?:

is that the near-mythical "dave" (or whatever he was called) that stood in for him for a couple of gigs?

i think it looks like craig. its early 1984, likely shortly after having spent fresh warner-money for instruments (- what did all of them buy, even andrew bought a guitar???) maybe craig a rickenbacker? obviously craig sounded different early 84, much more raw and distorted, so this would fit for a rickenbacker

i know craig did go through a period of back-combing his hair, but i think it looks too thin (:lol:) in the face and arms to be him :|
