  1. Thought that was you on the bay. Just a bit out of my price range but good luck, it's a stunner Andy. Karl.

  5. I've just left a band of 30 somethings. I'm 51. No grieff or anything like that, just got the offer to join a bunch of 40 something rockers. I had to learn an 8 minute Metallica song and lots of other challenging rock stuff of the stop/start, change key, widdle variety. 37 songs in 3 weeks before the first gig. Loving it! There is always something better, just waiting to be found. Get on those formiing band sites and enjoy. Good luck, Karl.
  6. Seamless. Deal agreed this morning, met up, done. Not only is Tom a top gent, he has a ridiculously wonderful selection of basses. Whadya mean, green eyed monster. Many, many thanks Tom, you are a gent. Cheers, Karl.
  7. Hiya fella, where in the country are you please?

    Hiya N. The Rick parts cost about £400. Not worth that second hand but I would guess 2 Rick pick ups, Rick pick up surrounds,Rick pick up cover(2nd hand one on e bay standing at £26), Rick bridge, Rick saddles, Rick wiring loom, would bring in over £200 if parted out. Thankfully I don't have the skills to attempt that! Don't think for one second that I haven't thought about contacting you about that superb, gorgeous Twin Neck. Sadly I am even worse with 6 strings! Cheers bud, and good luck, Karl.

    Now £500 collected for a short period, (after a certain Precision that has come up). Please remember, this looks almost new apart from a tiny chip on the headstock. It also has £400 worth of real Rickenbacker parts. Thanks, Karl.

    Probably last bump unless someone has loot,a Precision or an amp/rig that is near to what I am needing. Disappointed that it's not gone, especially when you see an admittedly beautiful Ibanez, at £650. The pick ups/mountings/bridge/saddles/wiring loom/set up/nut all cost a lot of money but I still only paid £575 plus £100 for the set up/nut/strings. I do think £550 collected is reasonable, but open to opinions? Cheers, Karl.
  11. And this years winner of the Bass Chat patience award is................. Well done Kev!

    For those that have asked, hopefully a picture will follow this? Mods, if this picture breaks any rules, apologies, just trying to clarify for a couple of members. Please remove if not allowed.

    More PM's replied to. Couple of very nice basses offered for trade, but not quite close enough. Prefer a Fender or Lakland Precision. Would also consider lightweight/powerful bass rig? Cheers, Karl.
  14. See, if I could sell my Rick copy, I would be beating your door down for this, it is exactly what I am after and they always come up at just the wrong time. No doubt this will be gone today. Good luck with the sale (I think). Oh forgot, isn't this the 70's re-issue with slightly narrower neck? If so, I will be crying very soon, as it is exactly the one that is haunting my dreams!
  15. I haven't had the balls to watch this yet, as I just know Billy will make me feel inadequate. When I do summon up the courage, I know I will learn from it. I have just joined an established covers band and had to learn Daddy (thank God for the Songsterr site). That's enough for the moment! My fingers hurt.
  16. [quote name='Marvin' post='772888' date='Mar 12 2010, 03:54 PM']Sorry I thought this was about something completely different. Wondered why it was in General Bass Disc. [/quote] Brain the size of a small planet and you come up with innuendo?

    Hello Oli It is not a real Rickenbacker TRC. The graphic on it does say Rickenbacker, in the correct style of writing, however, to the anoraks amongst us, the writing does look just a touch too small. Having said that, the 4 gigs I took it to (Abbey Inn, Oldham,Crescent, Salford, Blue Cat, Stockport and Vanilla Lounge Wigan), all had the young dude bassists from the support bands giving it, "Love the Rickenbacker mate". Sadly I 'fessed up on all 4 occasions, that it wasn't real. Cheers, Karl.

  20. Oh what fun I could have if only I was blessed to be from Colorado.
  21. Try Aurora Projects web site. Custom cut in Britain, brilliant job on a tortie for my Geddy. Cheers, Karl.
