Rickenbacker 4003 Ruby Red Bass for sale £1950 - *WITHDRAWN*

I have considered picking up a fretted and having her defretted, but not brave enough to do it myself, if I can’t pick one up soonish I might start looking at reputable luthiers to do this for me.

Musicman fretless are really highly thought of, Pino can’t be wrong. Why so few built?

I have a hankering for a fretless Stingray, but having searched for several months they appear as rare as hens teeth. Compared to say Fender or other brands they really seem to release very low numbers to market, is it me or can anyone enlighten me as to why they seem so rare. Cheers, Steve.

Hi All, I have an old black Aria bass that has a fair bit of battle damage, chips and scratches and I have been thinking about having her refinished in the original black, but from my initial research it’s a very expensive process and have also read a few horror stories, can anyone recommend a reputable refinish company? Cheers, Steve.

Sod’s Law… Dream bass is never going to appear!
bassatnight replied to bassatnight's topic in General Discussion
It is indeed, and I have mailed them. 😉 -
So, you have your dream bass in mind, in your dream finish, you wait for a long, long time for it to appear for sale. You decide eventually that it’s just not going to happen, so you pull the trigger on the dream bass, but not in the finish you are after, then two weeks later your dream bass, in the dream finish appears for sale!!!??? I have just bought a Rickenbacker 4003 in ruby red, less than a fortnight later, my dream finish ‘blue boy’ appears. I had been looking for one for years, so having given up my chances of one appearing, I pulled the trigger on a lovely ruby red finish. Arghh! Pretty sure others have a similar tale to tell. P.S I am very happy with the ruby red 😉 Steve.

Jaw droppingly good albums for bass players to hear
bassatnight replied to Bilbo's topic in General Discussion
Pino”s playing on Paul Youngs No Parlez album, just brilliant. John Entwhistle on the Who’s Next album Derek Forbes work particularly on the Sons and fascination\Sister Feelings Call album and Mick Karn on the 1979 release Quiet Life and the 81 Tin Drum album.
