This news has been coming. Anyone who caught The Cure live this summer might have seen these in action, but Schecter has made the news official that it has teamed up with Simon Gallup on a pair of new signature bass guitars, the Corsair semi-hollow, and the solid-bodied Ultra Spitfire.
Both of them have been spotted onstage in recent months, the Ultra Spitfire refinished in red, with a black lion graphic. Could this be an omen (from the guitar company who brought us the Omen) that the long-awaited new Cure album is closer to a release? Let’s not get ahead of ourselves.
