eek, Ric painting

Post by 1965 »

Just came across this on the bay. I've seen a lot of strange pickups shoved into Rics, but this Dimarzio seems pretty out there

Isn't that an acoustic guitar soundhole pickup modified to fit in there? I wonder how that sounds, but certainly not enough to even consider trying it. Agree on the "eek".

Yikes...

Like, I understand that guy's shtick, painting Rics (likely for lack of originality), but why paint your hacked up bass? That is just weeeeeiiiiird.

I wouldn't want that hanging up in my house!!

haha, niice. You know the guy?

The other ones aren't too bad. I remember seeing black/white 330 that was kind of cool. Like, if I owned a doctors office or something, I'd totally hang some huge Ric Art....but DEF. not that bass!
