Motorhead - Lemmy Bass Gear Rig and Equipment
Who Plays What - Who Plays What
Thursday, 10 July 2008 08:48

Lemmy Kilmister is an English singer and bass guitarist, most famous for being the founding member of the heavy metal band Motörhead.

Let's look at some of the gear and equipment that has been seen in Lemmy's bass guitar rig.

 

Lemmy's bass rig is pretty simple. No crazy pedals....just Ricks straight into Marshalls.....

 

Bass guitars
- Rickenbacker 4001 and 4003 bass guitars


- Rickenbacker Lemmy Kilmister signature basses - the 4004LK
- Gibson Thunderbird pickups in the neck position of some of his basses




Amps and Cabinets
- hot-rodded Marshall JMP Superbass II amplifiers from the later 1960s/early 1970s (checkout the Lemmy Marshall head!)

Marshall Lemmy Kilmister Signature Series 1992LEM8 100W Valve Super Bass Head Black


- Marshall 4x12 speaker cabs

Marshall 1960A or 1960B 300W 4x12 Guitar Extension Cabinet Straight


- custom 4x15 cabinet

Note:  In 2008 Marshall released the "1992LEM", a signature series copy of his 1992 100 Watt Super Bass Unit, "Murder One". This is a very cool looking amp.

Talk to lemmy, he'll get ya the cab made. his custom 4x15's are made by marshall. almost every show he's done in the last 15 years, he has a marshall super bass on top of a marshall 4x12, which is on top of his marshall 4x15. he has one of these setups on either side of the drummer. that is all he uses.
