A quick Google search came up with several comments about a Lado bass with a T-bird body and a Precision pickup.

 I'm an unapologetic fan of Cinderella..........I likes '80s Rock a lot.

Here's Eric Brittingham ( great lookin' guy! ) playing what looks like it's cousin, you can see it a couple times in the first minute or so........

I think the bass in the Cinderella video is a Hamer, but not sure. Looks like the fretboard inlays that they've used on some models.

One of the Cinderella offshoots, Naked Beggars, used to play around here regularly until the reunion tour came about.

Unlike what we've said about Robert Plant (who probably doesn't have to worry about money), I recall the quote from David Crosby about the CSNY reunion, where he said something to the effect of - "If you were a camel in the desert, dying of thirst, and you remembered where the water was, wouldn't you go back there?"

I'm pretty sure Eric had a Hamer bird back in the day so I'd bet you're right.

Nothing wrong with that attitude either. But if the camel wants to go forward to the next oasis, no reason to force him to go back.  :)
