Re: 380 L with piezo
Oooh! That is very tempting to me! But I also like the sound of the Hi-Gains too. So as of the present, no humbuckers in my 360. BTW, nice looking lefty mapleglo 360!

Ellen, you should try to get to a Ric Confluence near you and get a chance to a/b some different Rics, on the same amp and effects pedals, with the different pick-ups, so you can really discern the tonal variations. Of course be forewarned that these Confluences have also been identified as contagious sites for outbreaks of RAS .....360girl wrote:Oooh! That is very tempting to me!

Re: 380 L with piezo
There's talk floating around, about a Wisconsin confluence next year. I fully intend to attend it. I'd even attend a Chicago area one, but as far as I know, there's been no talk about one being in the cards.
Pictures!!!!
I finally took the time to take some pics and figure out how to post them here ...
Re: 380 L with piezo
Ooh, that's nice!
Now, if only I could get one of those with a slightly longer neck and a few less strings...

I have NO idea what to do with those skinny stringed things... I'm just a bass player...
Re: 380 L with piezo
Your 380L looks soooo nice!!! 

Re: 380 L with piezo
Well I've decided its not for me, and I have listed it on the bay.

I still have a Ric bass, so I'm still part of the ric club

Re: 380 L with piezo
Yea X,
That Piezo option makes this an amazing guitar with the sound variations.
Wish I had some extra $$ to grab this as a back-up to mine.
