Most of Knights Of Cydonia is all root stuff, yet it modulates a couple of times and is an interesting line to play.

I so want that burgundy one... -
[quote name='dood' post='946651' date='Sep 5 2010, 08:38 PM']Yes, plus one million! - If you give me a few days I'll have something else to bring to the table as well ) Would be fun to hear the LH through your brutal SVT 6x10!![/quote] I want biscuits, but only if they have SVT stamped on them. SVT Ginger Nuts... you heard it here first... im copyrighting that RIGHT NOW.

-
Does this mean we have to take my SVT in the car Dan? Did i mention that I have an SVT An SVT! yes, an SVT. SVT. Yes. SVT.

My feeling on the whole playing a vintage bass thing is.... it probably already got a few knocks on it already. Use it. Gig it. It's what it was made to do. If it's spotless with no dents, refin etc etc then yeah, keep it for investment... but a "player's bass" (as they so like to call the knocked up ones in vintage shops) is actually IMO a great piece of terminology - I use my '72 LP at gigs that suit it and I love it. A "player's bass". [i]Its for playing.[/i] Enjoy it.

My case wont allow for this sadly, wot case you got Wayne?
-
dan... I think we need to A/B the SVT and the LH1000. Just for shits and giggles. Plus it gives an opportunity for us to eat biscuits.
-
Ive got the g*itar version of this for my occasional 6-string acoustic duo appearances, lovely things, deep sound! Free bump on me.
-
Further to that my SVT has the fan and vents rather stupidly at the side. This is stupid, stupid I tell thee. However it is an SVT and therefore is better than anything that weighs under 6cWt. So nerrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

I forgot to post on this before Yes ill come Dan can you drive though lol

Erm, I have a Rickenbacker 4001 and an SVT amp. And I play loudly and with lots of treble. With a cabinet which also has SVT written on it. Shall I get my coat?
-
6 for me, all completely different!
-
Cool! Like this! Looks a bit "gggrrrr, metal!" -
I also note the last picture with the original P/G - still nice... but I prefer the tort on maple look, its one I havent seen on a Ric before... cool! I suppose you can just change it over anyway since you are getting both P/G's with this... -
I really like The Police and a lot of his solo stuff. Some of the tracks on Ten Summoners Tales are really excellent jazzy numbers with some lovely underpinning lines.
-
not surprising that this went at a very attractive price! One happy new owner, certainly... If I was a fretless player id have been sorely tempted (there are some really awesome fretlesses on here at the moment!!!) -
wow... thats an impressive looking thing! Interesting electronics layout.... -
As an avower lover of Ric I would really like to hear this actually, never heard an FL one... someone is gonna be a happy happy man I think, free pickups and spare guard, Beedster's seal of approval... what more could a buyer want!

[quote name='ShergoldSnickers' post='929552' date='Aug 19 2010, 11:12 AM']Just as a matter of interest - anyone got or tried a fretless Rick, 4001 or 4003? I still sort of hanker after a Rick, having tried a fretted one absolutely yonks ago at a guitar shop in Bradford. I just found the neck and sound perfect for me, but there was no way I could even remotely afford one then.[/quote] You could speak to Shaggy, as he is one of the few people to own a Ric FL...

[quote name='RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE' post='928965' date='Aug 18 2010, 07:34 PM']yeah,I agree...nice cat [/quote] Why thank you, she is a funny little character. Eats Bovril off of crumpets, what a legend! Anyway... [b]someone[/b] please buy this bass it will start a domino effect of FOUR BC members getting a deal on what they want... make the world a happy place

I love my Ric dearly, and im looking at getting another one (yes... i know.... GAS... lol) but certainly agree with the sentiment that if you START playing on one you kinda stay with it. My first true top end bass was my 4001 which I got nearly 10 years ago. Its my go-to bass without a shadow of a doubt. They are incredibly awesome if played with a pick but equally awesome if played with fingers. You can geta surprising amount of bottom end out of that neck pickup... well I certainly can with an SVT610 to back it up, anyway ... lol. I also agree with Starless's point about famous players... Squire, Lee and Burton... they certainly knew how to use them! Does also make the average joe like me want to own such lovely things. Try before you buy, certainly. The old 4001's had that odd "fat bit of neck at the 1st fret" thing going on as well, some people who have tried mine dont like that either... dunno if the 4003's have it tho. [i] edit. just realised I spent ages talking about the 4001 when you want to know about the 4003. sorry. lol[/i]
