geofio Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 (edited) Waited a while to find one of these !!!! she is a 2004 Montezuma Brown 4003, stunning in the flesh, pics just don't do it justice and sounds as good as it looks. Edited February 11, 2016 by geofio Quote
spongebob Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 Nice score, George - gotta love a MB! Quote
Subbeh Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 (edited) Wasn't sure I'd like it from the title but that's a real looker! Edited January 28, 2016 by Subbeh Quote
Mykesbass Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 That has got to be the worst name for a colour description ever!! Nice looking bass though [url="http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Montezuma%27s+revenge"]http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Montezuma%27s+revenge[/url] Quote

geofio Posted February 7, 2016 Author Posted February 7, 2016 I have had time now to record with the Bass, and as well as looking the part it sounds the part , really nice bottom end from this particular bass and has great feel too . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l4tFTCzHA_Y Quote
geofio Posted February 11, 2016 Author Posted February 11, 2016 Really enjoying this Bass, a pleasure to look at and the tone is just pure classic Rickenbacker these 2004 basses have the older pickups , the poured resin shark inlays, one piece neck, and the 330k pots which sound spot on to me. Classic ric tone without the worry of looking after an older 4001 and the problems that can bring. The Montezuma is very rare and very few of them made it to the uk total production between 2004 and 2006 was colour of the year 2004 but it took Rickenbacker a couple of years to build the basses that were ordered, total made was 300 Basses. if you see one grab it !!!!

Highfox Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 Nice congrats. Please pm me if you're ever thinking of moving it on. Rick lust again! Quote
