Another new nutcase

alan · Post by **alan** » Fri Mar 02, 2007 11:10 am

Just want to say hello, I think I've posted here once or twice, but never introduced myself. I am, of course, a Ric nut and I'll make my intro short. Owned 3 Ric basses between 1979 and 1992, all gone now, nothing from 1992 thru 1996, then a sweet,brand new 620 came into my life, and since Ive added a 620/12, a 77 4001MG, which just got a neck toaster, and an 06 4003JG. On order,and I'm impatient, a 4004Cii in Trans green. I haven't played in a band since 92, until last year, and now I have two things going, and yet I can't keep away from these invisable Ric communities. Been on the other sight a little over a year, stepping in with the big boys now. Hope you don't mind, and I'll be around.

Welcome, Alan, and you probably already know pics are a must!

Yes, we are very visual around here. Welcome to the RIC funhouse!

Welcome indeed, Alan! Being looney has its advantages around here...... or is it sane - can't remember!!

We are all nuts here, Ric or otherwise

Hey! I resemble that remark.

Welcome, Alan.

Now, if people would keep the same name on both sites, I might have a clue as to who I am talking to over at the RIC forum!!!

I am 2tens&an18 over there. Best I could come up with at the time. Teach me how to post pics, I've never done it. These two forums are the only ones I've ever been part of, and I'd love to show off my beauties. Thank you all.

Alan, first make your pics no larger that 500 pixels in either direction, save it at 72dpi, and make sure the file is no larger than 35k. Then when you are posting, just below here, there is a button to Upload Attachment. Use that, browse to your picture, and attach it, then post.

And welcome aboard, we're all bozos on this Rick bus!
