And there was me trying to add a little levity to this thread.
Re: Banning of Rickenbacker on basschat uk
agreed. Ghettos rarely produce the best music & cultures...at the end of the day it's all music, it's all good, even those poor unfortunates who have to play it on non RICsMartthebass wrote:And there was me trying hard not to believe in stereotypes.

Well, I'm "the source" that kiramdear decided to quote. And would you believe I own a 4003. She's a Jetglow with a black pick guard and a black and gold truss rod cover, she's ace. I'll post some pics up when I get chance.
And also would you believe, I bought it off Geofio (George) who started this thread. George by the way is a top guy, he's been on Basschat for a while now and he knows his Ricky back to front. I bought mine off him as I knew it would be a peach, and it is.
From my understanding of the issue, it's down to copyright of headstock, body and truss rod cover mainly on Ricky fakers for sale / trade or hire. That's why I made the comment on Basschat that kiramdear seemed to find so amusing, as I can't see the point of banning all Ricky content, only the sale of Rickyfakers that upsets Rick so much. For the record, I'm a mod on basschat, and "that Hamster" that has been quoted is a forum admin. Also for the record I'm a proud 4003 owner.

Who me.............I'm not afraid to die, I just don't want to be around when it happens baby.

Re: Banning of Rickenbacker on basschat uk
This place sometimes resembles a religious sect more that a forum. Maybe I should go register at basschat instead.

What goes on between RIC and BassChat UK is business and should stay between them.johnhall wrote:Cool! I'd vote for a ban!
When you put a group of people who neither respect nor understand the law together in one place, nothing good comes from it.
Is this forum, RickResource, supposed to be a place where the CO of RIC can freely publish disrespectful and patronizing characterization of people on other forums?

You would be very welcome Geir, we are an eclectic bunch!Wiker wrote:This place sometimes resembles a religious sect more that a forum. Maybe I should go register at basschat instead.
FWIW I voted no to the ban on BC because I don't think content should be censored but I fully understand the position the Mods are in with respect to the situation. Also, I fully respect the views of BC members who voted yes to the ban, they are just as entitled to their opinion as I am.
