I'll have a listen now and see what I think it sounds like. Edited October 30, 2008 by The Funk Quote
crez5150 Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 I'm sure it was a Musicman..... Ahhhhh those 80's soul weekenders at Camber..... happy days! Quote
Shockwave Posted October 30, 2008 Author Posted October 30, 2008 Well damn i must be lucky But i bet he used a rosewood board one Quote
crez5150 Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 Oooh.... looks like a maple board.... [url="http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=K6jVjj9F85U"]Rick James[/url] Quote
Shockwave Posted October 30, 2008 Author Posted October 30, 2008 Hmm, Flats or Rounds do you reckon? -Rob. Quote
The Funk Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 I'd guess rounds just from the fact of there being slap stuff on a few of his tunes (such as [i]Bustin' Out[/i]). It's nice to see Rick James get some props on these forums! Quote
