  1. Coptic Times - Bad Brains
  2. Now that's pretty cool, though I would expect that the less than PC punters would use it to question the bass player's sexuality. However, I doubt that any of the 30 will ever be played in public.
  3. I remember looking at a checker bound Jetglo 4001, that was decidedly "relic-ed", but the shop was still asking big bucks for it in the late 80's.
  4. Remember You're A Womble - The Wombles
  5. The back of the Blue Burst was... blue burst. A friend of mine back in the late 80's had an Azureglo, gorgeous bass, I was of course, insanely jealous, and of course being the 80's, he got it for a song.
  6. Gloria - Patti Smith
  7. Must admit, I was saddened when they decided to discontinue the Midnight Blue option, always thought that (and the 4001 Azureglo) was a great colour. And although I have a Jetglo, I do prefer the natural finishes. Just wish they'd use more figured woods for the Mapleglo basses. The Walnut one's are great because they have more variation in the wood.
  8. More, More, More - Bananarama
  9. Real Wild Child (Wild One) - Iggy Pop
  10. My Sharona - The Knack
  11. Don't Worry, Be Happy - Bobby McFerrin
  12. Enter Sandman - Metallica
  13. My old 4003, and my current one are certainly no lightweights. Not overly heavy, but certainly "substantial". The Walnut one's I've seen and tried seemed pretty light though.
  14. You Gotta Roll With It - Oasis
  15. Does it have to be a head and a cab? For that money you could get a Fender Rumble 500 v3 and possibly the cab as well if you shop around. IIRC, the combo weighs around 17kg. You do see them come up second hand as well. There's always the Ashdown Rootmaster's (the 500 is 18kg) and the new OriginAL 300 2x10 combo (about 15kg). Quite sure that there are other lightweight combo options available.
  16. Should prepare you well for a proper Ric then! Bizarrely, although the Rockinbetter's are slightly bigger than the 4003 & Walnut Faker, they're lighter than the 4003. The Walnut Faker is lighter still. I'd forgotten how heavy Ric's were 'til I got the latest 4003.
  17. Love & Marriage - Dean Martin & Frank Sinatra
  18. Fade Out - Loop
  19. Sweet Leaf - Black Sabbath
  20. New Rose - The Damned
  21. Jesus Saves - Slayer
  22. Night of the Vampire - Entombed
  23. The Tokai T'birds were all set neck. Nice basses. GLWTS.
  24. And add a sprinkle of reverb.
