It says the bass was sold in July this year, so there won't be a great change anyway. You don't want an opinion, don't ask for it.

If its second hand, £1400 is too steep - I would just buy a custom shop one and look past yours. Despite being a lovely bass, I don't like the natural ones.

Damn, got excited thinking it was that 8 string job, hagstrom gets me everytime

Anybody want this before I relist it again??

[quote name='Geddys nose' post='979675' date='Oct 6 2010, 05:58 PM']Hi Oli ,a Vigier Excess sounds very close to a Ric even Roger Glover plays one to get his clank back, If your over my way you can have a go on mine and they have a superb neck as all Vigiers have. There's one for sale here too nice colour IMO- [url="http://cgi.ebay.fr/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=110594451633"]http://cgi.ebay.fr/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewIt...em=110594451633[/url][/quote] I love Vigier!!! LOVE!!! I think you've probably nailed it, just gotta raise the funds . Tried Vmaxblues' old arpege, beautiful despite the weird looks. The newer ones look a great deal better just haven't found a finish I like - I'll keep my eye on that, cheers Si

[quote name='bassmeg' post='979656' date='Oct 6 2010, 05:35 PM']Have you tried an Aria SB oli? I am not saying that it would sound like a Rick but they are great to play and if you get one with an untapered neck, you maybe half way there. BTW, cant believe you were going to the dark side, or should i say the spot-lit side of the stage![/quote] Haha, I still want to after forking out a grand on the Charvel <<< I've also got a great semi acoustic which can pull off Van Halen to Lynyrd Skynyrd stuff with the greatest of ease!! I've only tried a couple of Aria's but I know they're in a similar vein as the great build Cort/Ibanez/warwick ultra playable arena. I tend to use flatwounds and fingers for the percussion but its the gainy vintage pickups I like. Don't know anything that has best of both worlds at a budget, probs what turned me off bass.

Hi Guys, I may be coming back to bass it seems as my rig won't sell, however if I do it will require a very hot percussive sound. What pedal would you recommend for that old fashioned rickenbacker sound and what bass. I really miss my EB3 I know my ideal bass would be a rickenbacker with a thin neck but there isn't much change for that with my budget. Advice please! Go crazy

Not for me

This is gonna finish soon, still hasn't gone - the mind boggles. Why are there so many watchers for a 'buy it now' item??

[/quote] Haha, twas a wicked find on your part, after that I really fancied one of the new retro Jazz models G&L are making. If you get Andy Travis' Ric you'll have to let me know about the necks! I've never plucked up the courage to buy one blind ...but the sound is definately me!

I think it'll sell just fine solely by his enthralling charisma - everyone loves being called stuff like 'mate' and 'bruv' etc...it also opens up the oppurtunity for a dead arm.
