Yes owning this bass gives me a buzz,and a big grin everytime I play it. It was a pipe dream back when I started playing bass back in 1987 to own a Rickenbacker bass,I did'nt think that it would take 11years to own one.And berth how did you know what my girlfriend calls me,minus the word lucky.

Happy birthday Shawn!

I feel that there is something a bit special about the 92 basses, although they look plain there is that extra clarity in the sound and often a very slim neck...
Enjoy!

Eden.
