Yes, considering the physical dimensions of the 400+, it weighs a heck of a lot. I can't carry it on my own, I always need someone else's help (old injury).

I play a 4003 through a Mesa Boogie 400+, running to two Mesa Boogie cabs (4x10 and 1x15). Great sounding rig. I also use Rotosound roundwounds and a Fulltone Bassdrive.

I compared the 400+ to an Ampeg SVTCL at my local GC, and went with the 400+ (purchased used off of ebay later).

Very ...

Whould you whike to see my Rhwickenbackah?

What is considered the appropriate abbreviation for Rickenbacker? Ric or Rick? Or both?

Ah yeah!

Got a 360 BBR on order!

Dean,

I'm primarily a bass player (4003, 4001). I own a 360/12 that I use for recording. If you get one, I would recommend that you also get the McGuinn DVD. I now tune my 360/12 down half a step (neck relief) and capo whenever necessary. It's interesting to see how McGuinn frets certain chords ...

Same pick, same strings for me.

Isn't the 4005 the holy grail of basses? You should buy it - you'll regret passing it up. If buyers remorse lasts longer than a year or two, I'm sure you could sell it and make a profit.

But I'm sure you wouldn't sell it...

Another vote for FG. JG would be cool, since it's a rare item. I would rather have a 4001C64S (MG of course) than a 4001C64 MG.

I use a Fulltone Bassdrive with my 4003 on a few songs, including King Crimson's Red. It suits me - I really like it.

Bob, how many basses do you own? I have the 4001C64, and a 4003 Jetglo. I'd bid on your 4003 Burgundyglo, but I have a Blueburst on hold.

I purchased a 4001C64 from Gary at Northcoast. Great experience. I also purchased a 360/12 from Mike Parks at The Rickenbacker Page (The Music Connection):
