Considering Mark is known for having a very bright sound, that Pangborn sounds remarkably dull in tone

Mark King's remaining Series IIs (sorry for the poor quality)

Was looking at the L42 vids on YouTube, the vid of Hot Water was done at a show called 'The Tube' back in 1984 at Newcastle upon Tyne in the UK..I know as I was in the audience somewhere.

enzo..nice pics how did you come about them..did anyone notice that PU selector is not at the lower horn as it should be??
This is because Mark requested it be moved to the rest of the control section as when he does his 'thumb strumming' he was catching his hand on it.

Terry, this pics come from an article on a Guitar and Bass magazine ( Nov 06 ) about MK private collection. Very nice pics of all his basses.

A family pic:

 
....and the 2 remaining JDs:

 
I own an exact replica of the left one that mounts the pick-ups that were originally fitted on Mark JD, in the early '80. A trade mark sound!

I know he had to sell a few when he got divorced about 16 years ago.
he lived at Wooton Manor on the Isle of Wight where he had his own 64 track studio where 'Guaranteed' was recorded.
He has downsized to more modest house.

...still living on the Isle now...i met a group of English fans a few years ago at a Level 42 concert , they told me where he was actually  living but i forgot the name of the town ...

Hey Terry, Unless Level 42 played the Tube more than once I was in the same audience as you. I've no idea who else was on the bill as I only went to see MK and at that point in my life I don't think I was too aware of what was going on around me ;-)

They played The Tube twice as I remember.Once after 'True Colours' performing 'The Chant Has Begun' and 'Hot Water'.The second time was after 'World Machine' performing 'Something About You' and 'A Physical Presence'.

I was at the first one with jacko in the audience somewhere.
