synaesthesia Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 [quote name='MB1' post='91831' date='Nov 20 2007, 09:21 PM'],not sure Bruce Foxton has a signature model.[/quote] He doesn't. The signature basses were the CS and the Lemmy. The rest of the signature series were guitars and RIC no longer makes Signature instruments, at least for now. They are a very stubborn corp. and will remove dealership rights from a dealer if they get crossed. BTW, there were only 50 Lemmy signature basses made and I do imagine he gave them some grief in the production process. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SJA Posted November 24, 2007 Share Posted November 24, 2007 I find it funny that Chris Squire requested a thin neck on his sig. Rick- on his Instructional vid his hands look huge- I'd have thought he'd prefer a 50's P-bass tree trunk neck dimensions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreeneKing Posted November 24, 2007 Share Posted November 24, 2007 (edited) I don't think that big hands necessarily means you like a fat neck. Obviously not in CS's case anyway. Although I'm pretty sure he has a P too. I've got fairly large paws and love the feel of a slender neck, bass wise too of course Peter Edited November 24, 2007 by GreeneKing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
