Happy Jack Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 Is there a thriving market in RickenFaker guitars? Genuine question ... I'd never really wondered about it before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JapanAxe Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 Is there even much of a market in the real thing? Seems to me the main use for Ric guitars is to recreate the look and sound of famous users - Beatles, Byrds, Jam, Tom petty etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skankdelvar Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 (edited) [quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1385716570' post='2291372'] Is there a thriving market in RickenFaker guitars? [/quote] [i]Good[/i] question. My (entirely unsubstantiated) feeling is that there's always been a small-ish 'associational' market for repro 330's and 625's. Today's Rockinbetter is yesterday's Shaftesbury. Thriving? I'd have thought not, given the prevalence of Fender clones and the relatively higher cost of producing a semi-solid body. AFAIK, Faker guitars never reached the higher levels of quality achieved by [i]some[/i] of the Faker basses. I assume this might be one reason why they haven't really crossed over to semi-cult status like certain old 4001 clones. Weirdly, I've never seen a 610 / 620 clone, though they must be out there. Sad thing is, I doubt one could post a question like this on the specialist forums without incurring a degree of wrath.

discreet Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 I think it's a great idea - as I have a guitar for sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
binky_bass Posted December 1, 2013 Author Share Posted December 1, 2013 Like wise! I have a PRS custom 22 and a 60th anniversary USA fender duluxe strat that need advertising! But I fear that just sticking them in the 'other items' section won't do them justice! Though I probably will later today! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owen Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 If nothing else it is worth visiting the fretboard.co.uk to see this http://www.thefretboard.co.uk/discussion/6268/fs-jooky-jazzmaster-with-bigsby-wobbly-bits I SERIOUSLY want that. There is no way I will buy it, but it is super lush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 You can advertise guitars already on Basschat if you've signed up to use the classifieds. We have just commissioned another developer to get the forum site up and running so will look into the for sale side of things in a little more detail when the forum has been set up.

uncle psychosis Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 [quote name='Kiwi' timestamp='1386501181' post='2300680'] Uncle - will you be posting a link to Guitarchat on their site too? [/quote] If I get the chance to, yes. In the past I've regularly posted links to basschat from there (or at least from its predecessor, Musicradar).
