As stupid as those are, they're kinda dope

Rush or Yes

Haha, my father used to have a bass boat and went large mouth fishing. Every time I see a sparkle finish, I instantly think of my dad's old red sparkly boat

I've had several RICs each strung with Rotos and have gone through several packs and have never personally had issues with them (either strings or frets) but wouldn't doubt if others have had issues

I'm actually really glad to hear this, I've bought a RIC truss rod adjustment wrench (yeah, I know I could get any wrench that fits, but I figured I'll be adjusting truss rods for multiple RICs at some point in time) and will try messing with it once it comes in. I'll get back once I've messed...

Yeah, the only thing I haven't messed with at all is the truss rods, which I'll probably look at sometime this weekend

I've used rotosounds on a few other Rics I've owned and never had issues with them. Also, like I said, I swapped the E string with another brand new E string and had the same effect

No, I thought about that too, pushed the mute all the way down.

Okay, will do. Thanks!

Well, I replaced the E string with the E string from another bass that sounded good, and got the same results after restringing, so it's definitely something with the bass and not a dud string out the package

Acoustically, not much difference in volume, but doesn't have the ring/zing or top end. I almost feel there is a problem with the nut or bridge but I'm not sure how

So, I've just finally finished setting up my new (new to me) Rickenbacker 4003. I installed new pickups, new wiring harness, new 4003v2 bridge, and strings. Everything sounds and feels great with the exception of the E string. The E string sounds dead and almost like the tone knob is turned down...

My Jetglo Rickenbacker 4001

I just bought a Ric 3001

The only pedal I use is the Moog Taurus III

Would it be wrong of me to say I see the same bass in 3 different colors?

I love the thick "U" neck and maple board with white binding and inlays, but trying to get rid of mine right now. If anyone's interested, PM me.

I'm selling 2 of my 3 basses right now. I don't need either of them and prefer my Ric, things don't often hold any sentimental value with me.

If you're looking for a fender precision bass with a TF fretless neck, I'm selling one right now if you're interested.

I guess it was a 410, don't pay attention to most of that stuff, lol

What amp?

My two heroes, and yeah, I've got my action low and get a small amount a fret-buzz

I've got an Ampeg 4x12, guess I need an 8x12 or two

You know, now that you mention it...

I've been trying out the really hard playing for the cool tone it gives off. I do play softer depending on the part of the song. Yes, I mainly play with my middle finger, yet add in my index with really fast stuff. I've just been playing my guitar (with a pick) until it gets better.

Yeah, I've had calluses the whole time, but the blisters developed under them. And yeah, Ric with Roto 66's

Damn, I knew I was forgetting something, lol

1. Yeah, no burns or anything. I only felt it after I stopped playing, it was the same thing with the first blister. 2. I mainly use my middle finger, but add in my index for faster stuff, and even the ring finger for really fast stuff. Roto 66's, hard/prog rock, it makes the tone sound really...

I mainly use my middle finger, but add my index and even ring finger for really fast stuff

It hurts like hell playing like that, but it sounds really cool, lol

It feels like one, lol

I've been playing for almost 3 years now, so these aren't from being a new player. I got the first blister about a week ago and just got this one. I always play aggressively, and now play even harder. You guys think my new technique is a little rough for my finger? I think I'll keep playing...

I guess we're all just showing off our block inlaid Jazz Basses now, so here's mine...

I've got the prefect bass for you ;) Fender American Original 60's Precision Bass with Tony Franklin Signature Fretless Neck. I'm actually selling it, lol

I guess a Fireglo 4003S and put toaster and horseshoe pickups in it

You can do like me, start with Cygnus-X1 then Xanadu

Rush or Yes during the 70's

Would it be wrong to answer Rickenbacker?

I put a fender hi-mass bridge on my jazz just because it looks nicer, don't know if I can feel/hear a difference, I at least like the look, and that was worth it to me

Any discontinued Rickenbacker
