  1. OK - memo to self: must try harder...
  2. Well that was a good buy for whoever got it! I think the seller did themselves by making it collection only.
  3. Bad case of woodworm on the headstock there!
  4. I do like that bassline - it's a great workout. The middle bit is quite proggy too...
  5. Ah - since you mentioned Rics...
  6. Great - can I have them, please! Would Paypal be OK to cover the postage?
  7. Hi! It's got the SD pickups on it now and a Maltese cross! I might have to re-do my rewiring, as it sounded a bit strange today...
  8. Darn - Dundee is a bit of a trek...
  9. They were probably made after this thread started!
  10. I've got 4 of them too! The fourtune club...
  11. That's how it was made AFAIK; it's a cheapie, which kindof made it more fun to put that neck on it...
  12. Listening to the sounds is like an exercise in recognising songs... I got "Living Wreck" and "You Take My Breath Away", amongst one or two others...
  13. My guess is they're more interested in volume production knock-offs than to-order custom builds.
  14. Yep - I do mess about with stuff... 🙂
  15. ...then there's my Rickenberger. and my headless doubleneck with Ric bass pickups. And finally an innocuous Ric TRC on a Fender headstock!
  16. Well, I have SD pickups on a couple of basses... My slightly tweaked Ric. and my Red Baron faker: Coincidentally, I have a P with a Status neck; it's a bit of a Frankenstein. Also coincidentally, going back to your J, I'm trying out a J-style pickup on a Ric base for someone this weekend!
  17. Maybe he'll get a spooksperson to reply...
  18. Haha. I do have a habit of putting Rickenbacker pickups on things.
  19. The Columbus wasn't a bad bass, but it was quite heavy. My next bass was a Rickenbacker 4001, which I've still got. Amp-wise, at some point I added a shonky unbranded 4x12 and another amp (I think it was a Maine, which was quite nice, as I recall).
  20. A good one is probably in the £500 range.
  21. Well, that particular one was in a bit of a state, with the neck detaching from the body and the fingerboard coming away at the headstock end. I have one of those in better nick.
  22. My first setup was a Columbus Jazz bass copy into a Carlsbro Stingray and a WEM 2x15. I had another Stingray at some point; the one with the push-buttons for tone.
  23. I just tweaked the neck of my MIM Precision with one of those Fender 3/16 ones with the red T-section top.
