The Xmas lights are a nice touch...

It all comes down to personal opinion, plus just what it is you're most looking for, i.e. feel, tone, prestige, price, honouring your bass-playing idol, etc. I do believe it's true that no one bass can be all things to all people. Personally, I'm shocked that Fender has any marketshare at all after ...

Also, I'm sure some people are with me when I say I almost despise the feel of a new instrument even if it is a rickie ;)

Hello fellow Ottawan! Welcome to the forum Alex. Doesn't sound like you're too interested in a new 4003, but you should know that I once ordered one from the Long and McQuade ...

Wait! I'll buy it!! I've been looking desperately for a 2x15 cab!! I'm going nuts looking for one (especially an Ampeg)

I'm not impressed. The seller clearly knows the 4001 isn't worth anywhere close to whats he's asking--he's looking to rip off someone who doesn't know any better. Just taking a wild shot in the dark and won't loose any sleep if some misguided person thinks it's worth $5K. I couldn't live with myself ...

Yeah, actually what I meant was Danny was my biggest FASHION influence!

Sorry, but as we all know it takes 2 years to order a Ric in Canada--you can't post anything until then. :wink:

Well... okay, I'll make an exception in your case since you've got Danny Partridge as your avatar. Like most of the folks here, Danny was my biggest bass influence growing up. :lol ...

The Preds will be much better next season . Tootoo is Crazy !

Okay, now the world has officially gone topsy-turvy--we've got southwestern Americans discussing hockey on the 'Happy July 4th' thread of a Rickenbacker Bass forum! :shock: Not that I don't like it, 'cause I do! (LEAFS SUCK--GO ...

Hmmmmmm...Canada..............I do like Hockey . Is the dollar worth anything in Canada ? Moron free ?

Bring us a wheelbarrow full of your funny-looking green bills and we'll give you a medium Tim Horton's coffee. Just don't expect to actually talk to any Canadians while you're up here: we're all ...

Welcome to the club, Dan. (I'd say Canadian Club but that has a whole different conotation!) Having once had a 74 4001 and now having a 2005 4003, I would strongly recommend that you consider selling it in exchange for a new 4003. Why? Because you mention you were looking for a player not a ...

South Canada Territory sounds good to me!

Ha! I like it--a little revenge for Bart referring to us as "America Junior" on the Simpsons. :cry:

Happy South Canada Territory Day everyone! Don't forget to eat your poutine and drink your doughnut-flavoured Molsons! (Or should that be eat your Molson ...

Any tube Ampeg will work -- I'm using an SVT 3 Pro. Only 26 lbs!

Probably a good deal for somebody looking to jump into the Ric pool on the cheap.

Finally, we didn't HAVE to go full width as we made this manufacturing change but I honest felt that's what the majority of people preferred and I thought there was no downside to doing so. Thought wrong, I guess.

With all due respect, John, you've got to stop being so oversensitive! From what I ...

Looks normal to me, unfortunately (Actually mine's worse!)
