It's a reverse.
They came in different shapes too?? No wonder why it never caught on
You are right, memory played a trick on me there..
EDIT: I see no mention in the other Cliff thread about him using a Gibson EB-3, he used it in 1985. Might have been a loaner, not sure.
I recall it was a black EB3L slothead, but who knows. I can't stand watching the Fly on the wall video, too embarassing - maybe someone else can check it out. I always thought the bass on that album was muddy, maybe he even used it in the studio?
