Raslee Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 (edited) I sold a few other basses on this thread which you’ll see reference to below. I still have the lovely RIKS P bass for sale , pics below, which is lovely turquoise colour, was actually blue but has faded to a really nice colour. Really nice cheap P bass overall with good tone, low action and punches well above its price....light too at around 8lbs - £60 I could upgrade the pickup to a Sadowsky P (German one) for an extra £50. I've also got a range of cases, bag, options i.e. SKB hard case £40, Gator Softcase deluxe £80 or the odd cheap nasty gig bag for free if i have one. Add £10 courier within the UK or collect from Plymouth Devon. Edited August 3 by Raslee 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grooverjr Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 I always come to your for sale threads just to see that awesome Gong picture in the background and this one certainly hasn't disappointed on that score! Some good looking basses for sensible money, too. GLWTS/T 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petecarlton Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 I saw Gong in 1973, just after they released Flying Teapot. Amazing gig - real eccentrics, brilliant musicians (mostly)! GLWTC(learout) 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing gig - real eccentrics, brilliant musicians (mostly)! GLWTC(learout) I was born in 1974 but my dad played a lot of Gong when I was very young and I credit that for my Ozric Tentacles obsession (Roly Wynne, by the way, was a marvellous bassist - taken too soon). Even by the standards of the time Gong were 'special'. So many little riffs and snatches of Gong and Steve Hillage found their way into 80s and 90s music, especially the ambient stuff. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raslee Posted June 20 Author Share Posted June 20 (edited) I do love my Gong as all it's off shoots! Also bought up on the Trilogy and a long time Ozrics fan having supported them in the late 90's...lovely folk!

It looks black in the picture It’s a walnut type colour, tricky to photograph in the light. I’ve done some photos here for anyone interested in the Gretsch https://share.icloud.com/photos/0adtCSBCICT9ObbzqkEjY1wMQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raslee Posted June 28 Author Share Posted June 28 Don't under estimate the cheap Riks P bass up for sale, quite a bargain really. Plays really nice, low acion, no buzzes, good P sound. Perfect living room beater or one to stay in the studio or leave your 60's P at home whilst gigging it at the Dog & Duck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raslee Posted July 10 Author Share Posted July 10 (edited) May consider a trade for a lightweight 5 string jazz or P bass, below 8lbs…can add £ if necessary. Edited July 10 by Raslee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spyder Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 Is the Riks P bass short scale? Looks smaller than the other basses. I'm looking for a short scale P. Marc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
