A subjective question, but, in my mind, there's no doubt that James's bass is not a faker.coolhandjjl wrote:So those are fakenbackers?

"Sorry, James, but there's no way that instrument was produced in our factory. It's not a Rickenbacker by any stretch of the imagination".
The neck binding was a shambles and I had it redone in '82 or '83, so the dots are traditional, not like on a fretless. No help, huh?FretlessOnly wrote:Hey James: Do the side dots on your '69 line up with the frets or with the fingerboard dots?
That is a standard G&L. I have the pickup wired like the L1000 bass, so it has parallel humbucking, series humbucking, and single coil. If it didn't sound so good, I would get a proper set of Ric pickups.RicOSoundMan wrote:James what kind of pick up is that? just curious??
