It seems that Adam Clayton is still in search of the perfect bass. While he has a great number of fine vintage and new bass guitars, he has recently enlisted the skills of Sandowsky Guitars Ltd to make 4-bass guitars (thus far) for him.

Just received this report from Dublin, where U2 is in the studio...
Just a heads up on how wonderful your 4 basses are....beautiful instruments and so much "weight" and deep tone with a very light weight bass......amazing. The Will Lee is killer and the PJs so balanced. Adam has been tracking away and not having to break the momentum dialing in his sound.....Just a very good marriage of effortless tone that seems inherent with the overall design. The entire band and the production team could not be happier.
Nice one,
Dallas Schoo/U2
Here's one of the bass guitars. Looks to be a Will Lee model. Seems to be a custom finish job as well.
I've a message into Sadowsky as to see about getting a bit more info on the 4 bass guitars.
