    Jimmy Lea and his EB3! The bass has a  John Birch pickup in the center position and built in distortion circuit. This looks to be pre Slade Alive unless it is a studio provided back line, by that time Jimmy was using acoustic 360s and Nod and Dave WEM gear.

 Scott, I haven't listened to "Alive" in awhile ( I have a somewhat rare white label promo copy) is the video lip sync?
I didn't think so. The backline is interesting, Marshalls and Sound City.

Didn't see anything on the cabs but a close up of the cloth on one looked like WEM material...

Amps... obviously, Sound City being the parent of Hiwatt... a Laney amp in there too...

What were the cabs...?

No way lip sync, in those Musikladen features bands played live.

  My buddy Dave  runs the SIE board and he has painstakingly put together much of the Slade video that is out there, often using multiple sources of video and audio to make a complete performance. The performances are live but some of the tracking may be a we bit off due to the multiple sources. Anyone catch the glitch in Just Want a Little Bit? For a brief instant around 1:40 Jimmy is playing his Ibanez Flying V!

I went to see Charles Bradley & His Extraordinaires last night here in Sydney and was very surprised to see an SB300 on stage, so I checked YouTube, and here is the same bass on video ....

The bass player is Nick Movshon, who also played with Amy Winehouse.  Here's some good HD video of Nick playing his SB300 ....

Yeah he was. One of my favorites. There's a bunch of other great Bowie footage filmed at the BBC Studios from '72 on Youtube. It's really great. Crystal clear footage, great sound. It was filmed at the BBC for later broadcast on The Old Grey Whistle Test. In that stuff Bolder is playing a Mustang. I love Hunky Dory era Bowie. Timeless.

Great sound, and super playing! He's all over that bass and makes it look easy.
