Definitely an awesome purchase, BTW! But, my question is on disk two, what model of Alembic basses is John Paul Jones playing at Knebworth in '79? Can't quite make them out...but definitely Alembics! thrill74 Junior Username: thrill74 Post Number: 11 Registered: 4-2003 Posted on Sunday, June 15, 2003 - 12:30 am:    He uses his Series for most of the songs, but he busts out that 8 string for Achilles Last Stand. I think that's right. What's that inlay of on the body of the 8 string? hezgone New Username: hezgone Post Number: 5 Registered: 5-2003 Posted on Wednesday, June 18, 2003 - 3:27 pm:    I've seen this as well and was thrilled to see a series in play by one of the best. groovelines Junior Username: groovelines Post Number: 42 Registered: 4-2003 Posted on Wednesday, June 18, 2003 - 3:36 pm:    just got it yesterday, a belated Father's Day gift. Achilles Last Stand has always been one of my fav Zep tracks. Saw them perform this in '80. Teeth rattling, monster show. can't make out the inlay.... rockandroller Member Username: rockandroller Post Number: 57 Registered: 11-2002 Posted on Friday, June 20, 2003 - 4:46 am:    If its the eight-string triple omega I remember him posing with in GP about a zillion years ago (Alembic ad?) I think the body inlay is his personal logo (as seen on some Zeppelin album covers...) oujeebass Junior Username: oujeebass Post Number: 35 Registered: 10-2002 Posted on Friday, June 27, 2003 - 7:18 pm:    Check out the gallery under artist.
