I'm neutral, given my location..............but how long until this gravitates to the "B" word!!😭

Good score!!

I think that's called.........marketing!!! I won't be getting one, that's for sure.

Ironic- huh 😀

That is indeed a lovely birdseye neck (and bass)! Sorry, can't help with a recommendation but I can well undestand you wanting to get it back to spot on. Good luck in your search.

All the very best in the coming weeks! Nailing anything Chris Squire recorded will be a great start 👍

Apparently, real Ric ones have a tendency to crack or fail around the feet of the case. I guess it might be common with similar ABS cases although I personally haven't seen it.

Sounds like a good call. Do keep us posted.

Great player who seems to know how to devise bass lines that just work. Not too flashy, but always spot on in my opinion. He can make simple sound like an "art". For example, the track "Taking It To The Streets" from the album of the same name. So simple, and it works beautifully.

Totally agree

And one super cool grandmother, no doubt!

I am assuming that some of the pot tangs solder directly on the PCB.

I recognise the unique sound of the E string of the Pyramid brand. I have another bass with La Bella Deep Talkin' flats on it and, while it does sound dull, it is certainly not like the Pyramid. I guess what I'm saying is that what you hear is pretty normal for these two brands of string. Others will no doubt chime in.

She did a great cover of Pino's classic Paul Young fretless stuff!!

I think so, but very low key. He is more focused on his core business of Ricks. On Facebook he has "The Rickenbacker Farm" site.

Abba.....seriously uncool to have liked them - despite the ladies - when I was a teenager. Musicianship and vocals .......simply amazing even after so long!!

Christophe: je le ferai

Yes, mostly gigs in the Limburg and in the Netherlands tho. Band members are from all corners of Belgium; luckily, I'm in the middle.

I fully endorse the positive comments that others have written about Claude. I just bought a nice bass from him and had the good fortune to meet up at his place in Brussels. The bass was exactly as described, his communication excellent and a very knowledgeable fellow!! Buy with confidence from a man who has knows his stuff. Mille merci, Claude!!

For what it's worth, I use masking tape stuck on to the area that is to be drilled. I find it easier to mark (bradawl) and then drill a pilot hole. Good luck.

Welcome, Christophe! I'm also near Leuven!

Totally agree. Bernie's basses are right up there in terms of build quality and aesthetics etc, and...........seem to be competitively priced. Please don't work on that GAS attack button. Help me, for I am weak.

Amazing bass.........just wish that I had £2500 spare.

Great shout for the hardcase, thanks! Do you find that the I-Spot CS-12 has enough umph to power the HX Stomp? I seem to struggle with a Cioks DC5 Link under my nano board powering the Stomp.
