My stash of porn

Now my GAS addiction has finally drained me of spare cash with the latest addition to the family.. A 1976 Rickenbacker 4001 :)

A few crackels, pops and buzzes, a couple of well rusted screws that need attention. Haven't played it live yet but a fellow bass player tried it out at their sound check (open air gig in Buckingham) on Sunday and went all glassy eyed and went on about his he sold in 1978, so it cant be bad. I havn't found that elusive "clank" yet, but close.

[quote name='cd_david' post='269708' date='Aug 25 2008, 07:35 PM']That Ric is the best colour they've ever done, absolutely stunning. Regarding the "clank tone" A new set of strings all controls on full and a bit of bass boost on a LOAD amp!
Failing that and you don't get on with it, sell me it LOL

Brand new strings, but I was cutting the bass, trying to get that clank!!!. Added some good bottom end, I'm there :huh: :huh: :huh: the Chris Squire, Bruce Foxton, all the tones are just there. Sorry :unsure: no sale. Thanks
