[quote name='Chris2112' post='1047913' date='Dec 5 2010, 12:32 AM']So are these like the cheapo buget line next to the real deal, shark fin inlaid stereo output Rics?[/quote] I doubt cheapo budget at 900bucks is the term I would use hhahahahaha.

I know of a thru neck and bolt on neck. but whats a set neck?

[quote name='warwickhunt' post='1047891' date='Dec 5 2010, 12:05 AM']The thing is, unless people are a bit more specific in what 'their' thread title is about other folks don't bother looking at the other threads. I should know, I started a thread on the same bass because I hadn't read the existing thread with the title 'MMM Tempting!'... that thread could be about anything, how is the casual browser meant to realise that is about an overpriced Ric (not a direct dig at [u]that[/u] thread starter but it does help if the thread title actually gives some kind of clue)? [/quote] either way, its still bang out of order

[quote name='jonsmith' post='1047892' date='Dec 5 2010, 12:08 AM']Mono output only.[/quote] I like the idea of having all the bells and whistles that come with a Ric, but does anyone use the stereo output. When would you use this option???????? Its something I actually look for in Rics when I go to shady dealers...I just assumed they all had the ric'o'sound output...........bloody ignorance!

[quote name='bumnote' post='1047879' date='Dec 4 2010, 11:49 PM']I am no means a rickenbacker expert but these were available with the dot inlays in the 90s. I used to have a fireglow one, which was a special order from academy of sound in Norwich. Beautifull quality bass, I just couldnt get on with it[/quote] so except for the looks did it have any other difference????

[quote name='Chris2112' post='1047876' date='Dec 4 2010, 11:44 PM']That looks dead snide! You'd at least clean the headstock of a bass like that if you were trying to sell it![/quote] ta for that.

There is a Ric on gumtree [url="http://glasgow.gumtree.com/glasgow/27/67689627.html"]http://glasgow.gumtree.com/glasgow/27/67689627.html[/url] Is there any other difference between the Ric basses with the bindings and triangle inlays compared to this one???

[quote name='merello' post='1047795' date='Dec 4 2010, 09:41 PM']Can you turn up without a bass as I'm shy at my Yamaha 414? (Obviously I'd buy a ticket!)[/quote] give me a PM if your up for the weekend Paul. Im heading down so I could pop in and pick you up.

are there different models of Ric??

[url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yVThmL2u1Ig&feature=related"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yVThmL2u1Ig...feature=related[/url] is it wrong i like the wiggle at the start? damn looks like ive had too much gin and its not even 8!

surely this is over priced [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Rickenbacker-Bass-Guitar-/250732506989?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item3a60d26f6d"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Rickenbacker-Bass-Gu...=item3a60d26f6d[/url] I honestly cant see a time where paying 5grand for a bass is exceptable.

Just to let you know,,,,this pic was taken at a rehearsal at 12.45 on the Sunday, I was drinking all night and got home at 8.30am. As you can imagine it was a long and painful 3hours after only 2 hours kip hahahahaha. Its all rock'n'roll baby.

[quote name='bubinga5' post='1036959' date='Nov 25 2010, 09:11 PM']It's a shame to see your instrument sold, thinking it's going to a good home, only to see it for sale again at an inflated price. like P said.... its just not what i would call... "in the spirit of musicians".. i would expect this from shops, etc, not individuals passionate about electric bass... am i old fashioned?[/quote] Not at all B,, just sounds like your a right good guy with a right to voice your opinion.

Im not overly fussed on making a profit, however I hate losing money on gear so ideally i would like to break even,,,,,,,,,a profit wouldnt hurt though
