OK, I sized down the pictures I took ... now to see if this shaky internet connection will allow me to post them.

Re: BARC 2012 Pics
Fantastic pics,Rich! Also,glad Harry snapped a pic of that fab 5 stringer. And the 4000 conversion "bbqt" of Gareth's,too. Unfortunately,i was too busy running around to snap any pics,altho i did get about a minute of video of a jam.
One thing i did notice after getting to play quite a few different Ric basses,was that My Laredo,with the coil taps both engaged was getting a pretty non-4004 vintage sound-digging it! This is making me want to get the new wiring harness in the cii even more.

Re: BARC 2012 Pics
Thanks for all of the nice pics! I'd forgotten about the 5 and 8 string basses until now! For a small scale get together there sure was a lot going on in the short time we had together. I'm with Harry--wish we had more time to talk and play. In case anyone got the wrong impression from my attempt at humor--Gareth's bass rig sounded great. He had it set on stun, not kill. Looking forward to the next west coast gathering...
If it is to be, it is up to me.

We totally winged the Ricken-Floyd jam as we had no lyrics sheets or chord charts and it was a first run through ! We played Breathe in the Air, Brain Damage-Eclipse and Money ..... probably won't get any Grammy nomination but we had some fun !
Re: BARC 2012 Pics
breathe is a great tune, great chords.
and that 8 string! wow! must sound fierce.

Is that 2030 wearing a custom finish? Looks great! Maybe a PW Aquaglo paint scheme?

On the right is Kira's 2030 refinished by PW in that awesome aquaglo scheme.
