geofio Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 (edited) yeah i know what he said , it does not help the seller when folk start talking about copies although in jest, when the bass is a genuine rickenbacker 4003. cheers Edited April 13, 2012 by geofio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrismuzz Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 [quote name='hiram.k.hackenbacker' timestamp='1334368073' post='1615378'] Anyone would think you had a vested interest in sellers of 4003 Fireglo's!

geofio Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 hi chris, at the end of the day if you get a good one they are hard to beat , it,s as simple as that mate, thats why i have gone through so many, it is hard to get a decent 4003, i now have my beast of choice. cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrismuzz Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Shame it's such a bitch to get a good one, they sound and look the business! Glad you finally got there dude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vax2002 Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Thats can be the problem with Ricks, you do have to keep trying and buying until you get one thats right, some are very good and some are absolute dogs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timmchale2009 Posted April 14, 2012 Author Share Posted April 14, 2012 Well let me reassure you this one is no dog! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vax2002 Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 (edited) If it plays half as good as it looks, I would have it if I had the funds, too much crap to get rid of, before I can buy another. Over run with PA gear and lights at the mo, which does not fit my new attitude, if you have no pa, you wont be singing mate. ...Well you can but nobody will hear you over my 700w firebass amp and 2x4x10's Edited April 14, 2012 by vax2002 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vax2002 Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 If they carry on with the new "budget" spec, dark wood fretboards....., lazy finishing on headstock with no blaze stripe, then these will become classic instruments of the future. The new ones look more like copies than the copies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timmchale2009 Posted April 14, 2012 Author Share Posted April 14, 2012 Yeah I wholeheartedly agree Vax they do seem to look a bit too synthetic as opposed to the more natural look of the older ones! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
