Hey Paul - I'm curious if you used the picture(s) of my Lemmy 4004LK. Looking forward to picking up this book!

It is a four letter word, after all...

Yeah - I started that failure of a thread...

This idea seems to have petered out. I live in Mass, and would really enjoy getting together with some of folks on this board. Who's in?

Martha Wainwright performed an Edith Piaf song on tonight's Jimmy Fallon show. The guitarist had a MG 330 with toasters - He even doubled on clarinet! Another example of the almighty versatile Rickenbacker!!!

I'm still going with Lemmy - He could kick Shunya's butt l over the room....

I have 3 Rick basses - 4001v63 MG, 4003 Blueboy, and a 4004LK. Fun to play and beautiful to look at. But, I always take the 78 P bass on the gig - I recently dropped the stock pups back in - Thunderous sound. When I play that bass, it's like putting on an old pair of slippers.

I enjoy all things ...

I'm a pro, making 100% of my living from gigging. Most of the work I do is classical, playing the double bass. I also play musical theater throughout New England. When I am required to play electric bass, I go with my Fender P or Pedula Penta. I don't take the Ricks on those gigs.
