Yep I'd bet that someone has offered him something like £350 cash possibly collected within the last 24hrs Similar thing happend to me once. Request his address and you'll probably get his phone number too ! I'd make the little winker squirm for as long as you can

They pop up now and again for about £10-15 used I've done a side by side with the Behringer and a MXR M-80 and thought it stood the test very well ! Still got both

[quote name='cetera' post='69113' date='Oct 3 2007, 04:03 PM']it could increase demand for the originals? Thoughts?[/quote] I think the latter Gary, the old originals ones are always going to sought after especially with the new ones costing £700 ! The new Duff Sig model dosent even have Seymour Duncans fitted

Don't bother with the AKG Bug system it is Poo Very flimsy all plastic construction and not that good with range or quality. I've now got an Audio Technica 1400 series system that is superb You get what you pay for in this case, try and buy a good used system.

Deffo look at the Markbass 102HF i've got the 4x10" version and it superb, but big the 2x10" will suit most fo your needs in a fairly light weight package

Just received my replacement Hipshot Ric Bridge and it is superb I never liked the original Ric bridge, I play with a pick and you can't palm mute, it alway felt a bit 'wooly' to play especially acoustically, the intonation was horrible, the action was ish ! The Hipshot (I've got the Aluminium one) is superb, its a direct fit, Intonation is spot on, action is actually lower as you can adjust each string, sustain and feel is solid as a rock All in all its expensive, but well worth it Anyone else got one or pondering getting one ?

Got the all Black version of this bass with a Black Badass II and Seymour Duncan 1/4'lbrs it is amazing ! Sound and playbility is spot on.

Right ! Try - [url="http://www.ricsrus.com/"]RICS'R'US[/url] Know known as Rickysounds. They have spares and good advice Heres what your looking for - [url="http://www.ricsrus.com/ricky%20fittings.html"]NUTS ![/url] Good luck !

Try one of your nearest Sound Controls they seem to stock a lot of Schecter Basses

I have a 4003 and a Fender P and find the Ric lacks 'Punch & kick' even against the Fender P I've now just got a MXR M80 pedal as it has Bass / Mid / Treb / Volume controls (Ideal to balance your bass output) but also a separate channel for a bit of Overdrive (if thats your bag) But I have to admit if I want to cut more through I use the Precision

I bought 5 or 6 sets of Rosetti strings off E-by-gum-bay for £25 and four sets were useless the E strings had loose or broken cores and buzzed got a refund and now use the cheaper Pink Rotosound 45-105 sets for about £10 delivered

[quote name='funkysimon' post='37884' date='Jul 27 2007, 04:13 PM']keep having the urge to buy a plectrum and a rickenbacker bass and join a rock band.[/quote] Funnily enough I use a pick (Jim Dunlop 2mm Fat Stubby) and a Rickenbacker 4003 ! .

Now these basses have been around for a while I was wondering if anyone uses one and how they are getting on with it Have you had any reliability problems Is it really all your answers in one bass? Not everyones taste, but especially in the covers band market could be ideal !? Heres a question thats been niggling, as its a modeling bass does it make any difference to the sound if you have new strings or old strings on the bass ? Cheers Ade

You have a PM Cheers Ade

[b]Dunlop Big Stubby 2mm[/b] Used to use thinner grey nylon picks as I thought thick = clicky but I find the more solid the pick the smoother the sound I also like the indent on the 'Stubby' stops the pick from slipping when sweaty
