    Rick 4003SW - US quality rant...

    Indeed, in this case we're talking about a bad switch, thing is, this is not an uncommon problem, according to my mate who owns quite alot of 'em (3 4003 and one 4001 I believe), which feels a bit jokey to me. Well honestly, and I reiterate, this is purely in my experience. The last time I...

    Rick 4003SW - US quality rant...

    It is very gut-wrenching whenever someone has a terrible QC experience with Rics. As much as I would like to own one, as the sound is just unique and beautiful (IMO), this joke of a QC procedure is inexcusable, really. I bought an LTD from Indonesia, set up perfectly, no defects, everything...

    "Artist Models" of the Deceased

    Agreed about Kurt Cobain, but, as for Hendrix and Jaco, as we don't know their opinions on it, I'll consider it as high honor, a tribute, if you will. Although they are making money off it... Eh. But Ford cars still have a Ford badge, although Henry Ford is dead, and Groucho Marx glasses are...

    Ibanez Ergodyne EDB 555 vs Cort B5

    Don't know anything about the Ibanez, but I own a Cort B5FL (Fretless version of the B5) and, although the passive switch is nice, the active sound itself is not that impressive. I does the job, but the pre-amp is a bit underwhelming in variety. The basic tone is however quite good! Everything...

    Do you guys ever get GAS to buy a guitar?

    No, but I'm gassing hard for a Viola or an Accordion right now...

    A decent bass for under 750

    At that price, Schecter, Ibanez and LTD all make very interesting offerings.

    In your experience, what bass has had the least concerns with dead or dull spots?

    Graphite necks and headless basses were designed with that purpose in mind. And they do work!

    Looking for a different type of bass, suggestions?

    Carvin or used Status Graphite could be a step in the right direction?

    Wow, this is the nicest Fodera copy I've ever seen

    Well I absolutely agree! Think I just got my forums confused, I use one where changing the focus of the original topic is highly reprimanded. This certainly is not as bad of how the classic RIC vs Fender, antique-refinish-is-dumb or the...

    Wow, this is the nicest Fodera copy I've ever seen

    Well, I was rather thinking on how off-topic the thread has turned. From "look at this bass" to copyright, law and the meaning of justice :smug: But, yeah, except for some clashes, it has been pretty civil.
