What bass guitar does Twiggy Ramirez use?
While in the band Marilyn Manson, Twiggy played a lot of vintage bass guitars. He has used a four string Gibson Thunderbird IV Reverse bass, but he often played the vintage basses of other famous rock bassists that had been given to him. An example of this can be see in the videos for “The Dope Show” and “Coma White”; the bass Twiggy is playing is actually one that belonged to Kiss bassist Gene Simmons . This was the Gibson RD Artist, in black, which was made throughout the 1970s and 1980s, and a bass from Nikki Sixx (of Mötley Crüe ). This is his favorite as Mötley Crüe is one of his greatest inspirations.
