Tell me about it. I'll try and find a picture from one of the times we played the Tan Hill, England's highest pub. All 4 of us played in a space about 5 ft square.....I should probably move back to headless basses!

Short scale helps a bit!
Maybe this is the reason Kala U-Basses have gotten so popular (right in step with the trend towards longer scale, read LARGER, baritone guitars )?
Hmm...............

Wonderful shot! And you're right, not many 2060s out there! Wish I had that shot in the book!

Nice to see this being played out! I was just playing it's cousin last night, my 2030GF. I have not gigged with mine, yet, but did so with one that a friend owned years ago.
Welcome, Thijs!

You'd be welcome to use it if the photographer agrees Photo are made/published by the venue, see this link

I play in a garage-rock band, Sister Johnson. The stuff you find out there was recorded with a 70's 4001 (not mine, studio gear) or my '86 Fender P though. I bought this bass a month after recording. It's in our silly home-made clip though:
Just noticed there's only a couple register entries on this exact bass, and they also seem incorrect. I'll try to get some good shots, it's in great shape and 100% original (although I'm not sure about the case, since it's unmarked - which may be normal for the 2000 series? Fits like a glove).

That was quite enjoyable! Bravo!

My guess it's an original case then. The 2000's are pretty rare, I'd guess far fewer cases for them floating around than the 4000-4004 series. I'm not sure if the case I have for my 75 4001 is original, but it's certainly a Ric case, and is also unmarked. The newer SKB cases I have for my Laredo and my 650-Dakota have a Ric logo.
Wonderful looking bass. Welcome to the RRF!
