RICs in Churches?

[stts64]

EBO, EB-3, P bass, J bass. Got them all. Sometimes I wander why(?). Ricks are so versatile.
I guess I am just addicted to basses.

the eb3, jazz, and p-bass are all nice designs ... as is the Rickenbacker ... the the eb0 is kinda one dimensional ...

Hey everybody.... This is a great thread--I really need to peruse the bass section more often, even though I'm not a very good bass player, LOL!

I play my Ric guitars in church every Sunday.... I usually use an electric for worship team stuff, and I use my Ric acoustic to lead the kid's music for Sunday school, and at Wednesday night church. Our worship team bass player and good friend of mine, Billy D., plays an awesome jetglo 4001V63.

Somewhere I've got pics of the worship team; I'll post 'em when I have time to get 'em resized!

"I am frowned upon for some reason when I take my Rics to church...... " haha! I liked that one.


EB-2's are nice too, EB-0's have one sound, but it's good if you get it right, same with EB-1's, Pappalardi got a nice sound with one.

Here's a pic taken at our Christmas service about 3 years ago.... That's Billy D. on 4001V63, me on 330/12, and Miss Savanah Riddle on vocals.



The rest of the worship team is off to the left, LOL!

Hey, finally I had the opportunity to take some pics at my church band practice tonight. Here I am:

Very cool, Kris.... Nice looking fretless--is it a Monty or an Autumnglo?

[stts64]

Thanks Melissa. Actually we have been debating it here on the forum if it is a AG or a Walnut.
It is a 1978 4001FL and I would say it is one of the prettiest Autumnglos, but I guess there was more votes for the Walnut

Look under the TRC and pickguard and see if it shines or is matte. That should settle it.

Sigh......fretless AG............beautiful Kris, AG or Walnut!
