  1. Very nice indeed. Any idea of the weight ? These can be quite chunky.

  3. It has a Green logo, but is it also green Tolex ? I always thought that looked an exceptional colour....
  4. Bump for a great guy and a spectacular bass.

  7. It was a very silly question - I should have just read the first post.... ......'but they have separate standby switches so you don't need to run both sides if you don't want to' Thats good news
  8. [quote name='tayste_2000' post='908090' date='Jul 28 2010, 12:33 PM']Bump[/quote] Its no doubt a very silly question, but can you run just one 200W side on its own ? Seems a shame to have all the power valves burning if you are only using one side at 200W.
  9. Seb sold me his Rick 3001. Buying a bass at distance isnt easy, for the buyer or seller, but despite my OCD approach to authenticity and fine detail, Seb patiently gave me straight answers to every detail I asked for. And lo when it arrived the bass was absolutely as good as he said. He literally went another 20 miles for me, travelling to another town to pick up a box to ensure it was safely packed. A real nice guy, and a credit to the basschat community.
  10. Bump ! We cant have a thread like this languishing in the doldrums..........
  11. [quote name='Lysdexia' post='877794' date='Jun 25 2010, 09:40 PM']Hi there - the finish is of course original, but I'm not certain about the azure/midnight nomenclature. Probably why I called it Blue What I can say about the perceived radiance (presuming you mean colour vibrancy) is my choice of lighting for the shots has a direct bearing on the photographic outcome. The difference, for example, in the first shot with the model and the individual close-ups illustrates this quite dramatically. Again, if I was to shoot this low-key it could appear almost black, hi-key and a much lighter, paler blue would result - but the intent is to show the beauty and finish as best I can. I hope that helps![/quote] Thats great , thanks, and possibly the most technically competent answer I've ever had on the subject of colour. Beautiful indeed !
  12. Nice bass ! I have a Q on the colour. Azureglo or midnight blue ? The colour seems intensely radiant for azure, as the azure Ricks Ive seen personally have been much duller....yet I dont think midnight blue was out that year?. Im confused, but this is normal for me. Any experts on Rick colours out there please ? PS Presume the colour is original ?
  13. [quote name='giblett123' post='874074' date='Jun 22 2010, 05:39 AM']Hefty price drop bump![/quote] Wow ! Bargain price for a shuker.
  14. [quote name='richardrickenbacker' post='869202' date='Jun 16 2010, 04:27 PM']I think a price drop to a round grand will see this one go Chris, won't be me though, just brought a flat![/quote] What a gorgeous 5. Love the wood . Drool...............
  15. LAte 70s can be heavy. What weight is it please ?
  16. We only met breifly to complete a transaction, but he's gem of a guy, cheerful, straightforward and very easy company. Thanks R and I hope you thoroughly enjoy a great bass !
  17. Fancy the sister.....but isnt that [u]always [/u]the case ! Beautiful bass, good luck.
  18. [quote name='Bison' post='861354' date='Jun 8 2010, 07:08 PM']PM sent.[/quote] And replied. Still available Ooops, no its not .....SOLD For the record it went for about £500 to a fellow basschatter......
  19. Trades possibly considered before I start advertising elsewhere...............
  20. [quote name='Gwilym' post='858038' date='Jun 5 2010, 11:14 AM']if that was the 5 string version I'd have bitten your arm off - awsome price![/quote] Thanks Gwilym. Im just drilling the hole for the extra low B.........
  21. [quote name='giblett123' post='855207' date='Jun 2 2010, 06:50 PM']Surprised no one has gone for this one yet, nice looking and a really solid bass, what kind of ballpark offers are you looking for Colin?[/quote] Me too.....OK ..... it's time to grasp the nettle by the horns....... [b]Big price drop to £525 [/b] This is for a USA G&L that's light, more versatile than an SR or a P bass, has massive tone, and apart from a couple of knocks and the smallest ding, is pretty much pristine. Oh, and you get the original case and paperwork as well If it doesnt go at this price, Im keeping it !
  22. Wow. Now THAT is beautiful ! Another wonderful bass from the Giblett stable. Where do you get them from ? Good luck !
