Rickenbacker 4003.

I recall buying a Vintage RAT in the late 90's. IIRC, they discontinued it in mid 2000's in favour of the other flavour RAT's they were doing at the time. When I sold it, I recall breaking even even on it, but it was boxed and in good condition. Looking at the condition of the enclosure in the pic, it does look somewhat "roadworn".

I remember going to see them on this tour too... -
Again, whatever the maker of the bass recommends, however, if you ask for a de-tuner/extender, then they should take that into account when sourcing the tuners.

Was thinking the same too. Any ideas on how much?

Only just noticed that the last 2 sets of D'Addario's I bought are actually Nickel Wound EXL165's instead of my usual Pro Steel EPS165. These are un-opened, and never fitted strings. Long scale, 45-105. £16 each set, inc. postage to UK addresses.

Why a single pickup, when you can have two?
Skybone replied to Sambrook's topic in General Discussion
Must admit, always been drawn to twin pickup basses. -
When I saw Tool the other week, I didn't realise how much melodic work Justin Chancellor did, as well as thumping out big bass lines. Got to love a bit of bass melodic counter-point to the guitar.

My daughter loves Eurovision, and really looking forward to it. Usually quite an entertaining spectacle until the voting.

Instead of using the amp's pre-amp, you're using the HX Stomp instead to shape your sound. By plugging directly into the Effects Return, you are going straight into the Power Amp, so it is literally just the Master Volume (though you can control the level from the HX Stomp). I'd advise start with the HX Output set to about 9 o'clock, and turn the MV up from 0 til it's loud enough. Running the POD Go into the Effects Return of an Ashdown MAG 300 combo, with the amp's MV at about 9 o'clock, and the PG output at around 9 o'clock, it's easily loud enough.

I still use my amp, but I route the POD Go through the Effects Return, rather than into the Pre-amp. Doesn't colour the sound quite as much as going through the Pre-amp.
