I didn't know it was Johnny who wrote "Walk, Don't Run"... Interesting....

Nice Bass! Oh, how I love checkerboard binding. One thing that strikes me as really unusual about that bass is the headstock. The tuner positions look really odd, never seen a Ric with a tuner that close to the top of headstock, or that offset side to side. Has the headstock been modified, or was that just how Ric was building them that day/month/year? Congratulations on your score.

The tuner positions are consistent (if that's possible!) with the pre-mid '73 positions. Yet there are variances....Gilmourisgod wrote:Nice Bass! Oh, how I love checkerboard binding.
