uke Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 (edited) The guy who had this built gave the spec " I like the look of a Ric, but I love the feel of a Jazz, and the sound of a Ray" So he got this! Solid maple body, extra fret which I love as I play a song that needs that high E All Quality parts down to the rosewood knobs! I love it. Someone asked for more pics, so here they are!

Chris Horton Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 How bizarrly strange cool weird funky looking beastie I quite like it Quote
Ou7shined Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 Having noodled on this bass I must say it plays as good as it looks... and actually does sound close to a 'ray. A very well executed concept bass. Quote
paul_5 Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 Yowser! That really shouldn't work, but it's quite beautiful. Quote
FlatEric Posted March 11, 2012 Posted March 11, 2012 Brilliant. At last, something with imagination! Nice. Quote
woodster909 Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 cool, and yes love the logo(s) treatment ! Quote
LemonCello Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 That looks the business. When is someone gonna do a Fenson/Gibder? Quote

Dread Bass Posted March 25, 2012 Posted March 25, 2012 I played this at the ACG bash. Tis a great bass. Quote
dmz Posted March 26, 2012 Posted March 26, 2012 Love it ! Very imaginative. Would like to see the reaction to it on the Musicman forum............light the fuse paper and stand well back methinks. Quote
discreet Posted March 28, 2012 Posted March 28, 2012 [quote name='mart' timestamp='1332352791' post='1587211'] Is that Jonathan King in that photo? [/quote] No, it's Barry Matthews. Quote
BigBassBob Posted March 31, 2012 Posted March 31, 2012 [quote name='dmz' timestamp='1332793991' post='1593302'] Love it ! Very imaginative.

[/quote] I thought this too and then I thought about how much it would wind up the Rickenbacker forum. You could quite easily troll two of the most fiercely proud bass forums in the world and potentially be avoiding daily lawsuits and hit squads sent by Sterling Ball and John Hall. Quote
