Ric5 Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 I am a veteran from many other bass forums ... Decided to join here I am the guy who converts 4 string Rickenbackers into 5 string Rickenbacker and I build crazy 5 string basses. http://www.3dentourage.com/425/425-Ric.htm http://www.3dentourage.com/425/425.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 5 string Rics you've modified are awesome. I had a 4001 in the 70's (black with the rare cheqeured binding.....) which I regret selling ...hence my handle on this forum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpondonBassed Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 You should put this in the Build Diaries. I think it would get a better airing there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
