About Plainsong, Perry played the bass VI live too. The video of Primary shows 2 P bass but the song was certainly recorded with the bass VI. If you have seen the Metz 81' video, you know what Robert plays (& I think that's why he used it on the Reflections shows as well)... About Carnge Visors, it seems that Robert plays both Bass VI & guitar.
I originally posted this on the Bass VI group on Facebook... Also, I think I made some minor changes on it afterwards on a personal txt file, but I don't have access to this now.
