hows the sound of it? it looks incredible

well i'm going to go pick it up now due to being able to get a lift so i can test it then, i'm expecting good things,

[quote name='Soloshchenko' post='788487' date='Mar 28 2010, 01:31 PM']Is it the turquoise one thats been on here? Nice looking bass. Check out my CMI Rickenbacker thread for some discussion (and well informed info from Jon) on the brand. They are lovely built basses and unlike a lot of copies actually sound like a real Rick.[/quote] yeah its the turquoise one, real nice looking faker

cheers i'm pretty set on it, just wanted to know what to prepare for, cos its 7 pounds delivery or a train ticket to sheffield there and back which would be quite costly. cannot wait to get it.

its a CMI rickenbacker copy, but its had the bridge replaced with a real rick bridge, as well as real rick pickups and wiring. at the moment i play a squier jazz, but i'm looking for variation, and i felt a rickenbacker copy would be really good, love the look, love the rick sound. would i be able to get along with the rick neck and body shape after playing a squier jazz?

Weird question, but has anyone near suffolk got a Rickenbacker/Rickenbacker copy i could test out? i'm in the midst of possibly buying a copy and just want to make sure i get along with the body shape/neck and everything else. any help would be greatly appriciated cheers, Adam

what are rickenbacker copies like? i've heard bad things. but they look so nice. cheers for the help guys, pretty sure i'm gonna go for a fender P bass of some type? however a few trips to some shops might change that.

i like that, quite similar in look to my current squier, which i really like. i shall see if i can get the money pretty soon, selling my jazz soon, just finalizing that. thanks.
