    Spector Euro Classic 4 in White (The Sting) £1500 **ON HOLD - PENDING** - *SOLD*

    in Basses For Sale

    Posted · Edited by ozzy138

    After some thought, one rehearsal and one gig its obvious to me that I'm very much not a modern, active bass enthusiast at all so I'm putting this up for sale... I've only uploaded one pic as I'm sure everyone knows the shape of the bass, it's in perfect condition and a superb bass but just not for me. I can supply more pics if required.

     

    Owned for just over a month, comes with a Spector gig bag, a new set of Rotosound strings and some gold Schaller straps locks fitted..

     

    I can't seem to find any of these for sale in the UK at the moment so this is a good opportunity to grab one.

     

     

    Im more than willing to courier the bass if you're not far from the M25, i'm also fairly regularly in the Coventry area. If not im sure we can sort something out about posting.

     

    TRADES NOW ADDED..

     

    I'd be interested in the following,

     

    Black or White Fender P bass (maple or rosewood neck)

    Duff McKagen PJ in black or white

    Shuker JJ Burnel P Bass

    Thunderbird

    Rickenbacker pickup wiring question....

    in Repairs and Technical

    Posted

    Basschat Hive Mind...

     

     

    A long shot but does anyone have any ideas about the wiring for this Ricky neck pickup, which wire might be the ground or the hot?

     

    Its a rewind of a old, completely dead pickup and the people who did it are not replying at the moment and I'd like to get it fitted to my waiting 4003..

     

    Thanks in advance

    BABICZ RICKENBACKER REPLACEMENT BRIDGE £80 - *SOLD*

    Replacement bridge for the old style 4001/4003 Bridge....

     

    Fits snugly into the stock bridge and just makes life a lot easier to intonate, adjust action, etc, etc....

     

    It was fitted to one of my Ricks until i changed my mind and replaced the whole thing with a Hipshot. Its never been gigged or rehearsed and has been sat in its box gathering dust for months.

     

    On searching for them it seems only Thomann  stock them at £164

    Rickenbacker 4003 electrical issue....

    in Repairs and Technical

    Posted

    A  question for the Basschat experts

    My 2009 4003 Jetglo right out of the blue developed a fault, the bridge pickup sounded thin, i mean real THIN, no sound of it at all when you switch to neck/bridge. Also the vintage push/pull made no real difference. After a trip to a guitar tech Im told the bridge pickup is faulty and needs either rewinding or replacing.

    A new pick up was fitted (a Retrovibe 12k high gain) and the same issue is pretty much still there, however now i seem to have some bonus problems...

    The bridge is still way too low and muffled, the treble tone pot may well as not exist the same as the push/pull, there's no noticeable difference in tone...

    The treble volume, when on full makes everything sound thin again, a few notches back and it seems to get added bass. Turn the bass volume back a few notches and i get another change in sound, its seems to take some bass out..!!

    Im at a loss, new pots needed? a new cap? or a whole new harness?

    It appears to be a simple change out of old pickup for new.... bad soldering on my part?
