Whoops, miscounted, mine only has 20 haha, Yeah i can see going that route but I dont think I could do any work to my bass, its my baby maybe try building a bass with rick pickups and slap a 24 fret neck on it or somethen.

Hey guys, I've been doing some research and couldn't find a clear answer, do you know if there's anyway you can get a custom ric? My Ric has 18 frets and I'd like to have a neck that has 24 frets, I play lead a lot and my old schecter bass had 24 frets and was very nice to have if needed. Do you kno...

Hmm... I think Chris might have influenced Cliff, he used phasers, wah pedal and fuzz which Cliff used in his solos so I can see that! We haven't been to NYC yet but we are planning it, my guitarist's old band called Devil Moto went there I think a few years ago, they may have used some of those lyr...

Wow! I've never even heard that or anything and it does sound very similar haha. Crazy how things turn out sometimes Thanks for the video man!

You know honestly I never really have gotten into Chris Squire much, I've checked him out a few times but never was an influence or anything. I'm all about Cliff Burton, John Entwistle, Robert Deleo/James Jamerson

This is a solo my band would let me play in the middle of one of our songs and it ended up being part of the album, Got my Cliff Burton/John Entwistle going

Rockin the ricky at Slackfest 2012

Thanks! We weren't trying to be all fancy on this video, kind of like the old black sabbath videos, just stand in front of a screen and do what we do and have fun haha. Keepin it simple

THanks! It's my baby, I have a P-bass and a Thunderbird and I still cant put the Ricky down onstage, it does everything I need.

My band The Big Wheel Stunt Show released our first music video off our new album "Wonderful LIFE" coming out July 20th. I'm rockin and representing a Ricky 4001, my favorite bass of all time :]

Hey guys I need to replace my E tuning peg and I'm looking for one where I can flip it to drop d. Does anyone know what brand/kind to get for my 4001? I want to order the right one that will fit and not give me any trouble. What do you guys recommended?

Thanks!

Thanks guys! We are trying to get the whole Grand Funk, The Who sound with a bit more soul into it. My Ric's a 1980 4001, Shes my baby, I still couldn't pick another bass up live while playing.

Dang the overdriven part at the end of the recording sounds awesome man! I never would have thought to record it through another amp to do a lil remixing haha

Sorry it took so long to get back to this! That track sounds cool the way you remixed it. Alot more Grit forsure man!!! Ya Rapidshare was the only website I could think of to upload this music. I'll try to post more full versions of songs we do, I'm still waiting for the rest of the tracks to be sen...

Just got a video back from a friend that recorded a few songs of ours with his HD camera. Ofcourse had to sport the Ric, ENJOY!
