I'd like to share some pictures of my new custom built Rikkers Powerline. It has a red alder body with a black walnut top, maple neck with a ziricote fretboard, ceramic humbuckers, ABM bridge, Hipshot tuners and a Noll preamp.

I couldn't be happier!

1 thing I changed though. The bass came with Thomastik Jazz Rounds on my request but I found them too thin sounding and too flexible for my playing. I replaced them with D'Addario NYXL's and now it's perfect! Deep sounding, lots of mids and a very brilliant high end. All customizable with the preamp of course.

Oh my word - that Treeline...I'm gonna guess it'll be plennnnty of money, but stick an EMG P4 in the right position and I'd play that every gig...
