If I didn't have a Takamine B10, I'd have bought this by now.

I also have a Takamine B10 and have just bought this! I will be A/Bing the two and keep which ever I prefer. Based on Youtube clips I think the Rob Allen will win sound-wise but lets see. Either way, a happy conundrum
Nope, its a simple add on. Just leave pickups as they are, unsolder pickup wires from control plate, remove control plate, screw pickup wires in via connectors to J-retro plate, screw on J-Retro plate and Bob's your Uncle!

Very sorry to read about this. I hope you get it all back

+1. Thieving scumbags. Best of luck retrieving the gear, MM
It also depends on your definition of pop. Does it go as far back as Johnny Cash and 'Fulsom Prison Blues' etc? I assume probably not.
I know this is not a chart-topping band, but my previous band Rattlin Bone got me into DB playing and the lines are very easy and quite poppy. They are generally blues progressions - here's a free link http://rattlinbone.com/2011/the-life-and-death-of/
FYI, a guy on the Facebook Rickenfakers group page has just been handed a 30-day suspension on eBay for trying to sell a faker. Looks like John Hall's troops are getting even tougher
Hi Barend the bassi question was discussed on this BC thread http://basschat.co.uk/topic/168728-wal-percy-jones-bass-bass-gallery/page__p__1547373__hl__wal%20pj__fromsearch__1#entry1547373
I bought this off BC'er eubassix a while back but its not for me. I bought it as a London transport-friendly combo for my DB and acoustic bass but - while it fits the size criterion nicely - I am not 100% on the tone (a bit chorus-y for me). This is the precursor to the MB150 combos. Jazzers use to love these and the reviews on the web are great (eg,[url="http://www.harmonycentral.com/products/92612"]http://www.harmonyce.../products/92612[/url])
£250 inc post within UK please (I paid David/eubassix £300 plus post so I'm sitting on my usual tidy loss)
Here's a pic of one very similar (but rather more battered than mine):
