Electric Basses

Steinberger L2

At 1:08 in the video, it is seen clearly that John was playing a Steinberger L2 bass (which surprised be because I never thought he used them). It only appears he used it in a few songs on the "Face Dances" album (1981), the song above "Don't Let Go The Coat" being one of them.
