Rickresource Rickenbacker Forum

No problem, I just sent you a pm

I own a VT Bass Deluxe, it's great! There's a parallel dry output wich can be useful for Chris Squire stereo sound, I'm working on this

Thank you Jeffrey and Scott!

Scott : Did you reveive my email?

Thank you very much Jps!!

Hi!

Anyone else successful getting close to Chris Squire sound with the VT Bass? Samples/videos would be great!

Thanks

I'm a bit confused again but fortunately I still have time to make my choice

I've also read that 4001 and 4003 sound quite similar. The fact is 4003 are cheaper and also beautiful

Hey welcome here!

So do you have any idea of which model you will choose?

Oh thank you very much for the explanation, I understand now, this is great!! The famous RM1999!

So slowly but surely I'm getting more and more interested in the V63

I was watching some old Genesis footage and found Mike Rutherford with his Rickenbacker, it looks like a V63 but it seems to be modded isn't it? Anyone could tell me more about his Rick?

At 3:09 we can see it well :


Thanks

I see that you also own a 4003, can you get close to the vintage sound you are talking about with it?

Sure, thank you very much! I didn't know the similarities between a V63 and Chris Squire's one.

But I'd like to know more about the V63, the history of this model, I should rather the official website I guess, I check it right now

Thanks Jps for your pm by the way

The more I read about them, the most I want a 4001 V63. And the fact that it's the most similar to the Chris Squire's model is a good point as well, regarding my musical tastes. I'm still opened to your suggestions though, as I'm still "gathering the budget" but it's getting slowly a bit clearer for ...

What a beauty! I love it!!

How much is a good used V63? I've seen one which is cheaper than a used 4003 or vintage 4001...

Thanks for all the replies. As I don't have the whole budget yet I can take the time to think about it. I admit I'm still a bit lost about my choie. I must find the Rick of my dreams
