U2's home base has Hanover Quay since around 1996. They have a studio, practice
room and storage facility there. In the spring of 2002, as U2 were in Los Angeles for the Grammy Awards, there was a flood
after a sea wall broke. This flood did breach the first floor - storage area - of Hanover Quay. From what I've heard, there
was a great amount of each of the band members equipment that was lost in the flood.
As to which of Adam's bass' were destroyed, I am not 100% certain. But this would
explain why Dallas Schoo helped obtain the Sherwood Green and Shoreline Gold Fender Jazz Bass' for Adam; as per the VH-1
"Vertigo tour" special. It is also why there were new addition to his line of Lakland Bass guitars. As to which of Adam's
bass' were destroyed, I am not 100% certain.
