Rickresource Rickenbacker Forum

I wish I could but I have some work issues that can't be avoided. I would have loved to have given you guys the opportunity to play my five string Laredo, it's the most awesome rick I've ever played, and I've played a few.

JB is referring to this one from Japan? (Oops, I just posted a pic of somebody elses bass- damn, I just can't stop doing that ) It's just so easy to right click and copy, even a caveman like me can do it!

Then use a middle initial next time, John B! How are WE supposed to know which MG with an early-70s AZ you mean?

So, Mark, do you get your insurance from Geico too?

Yowsers, that is really some faker-thin chrome on that one.... otherwise it's been living on the beach for awhile

That bass looks amazing Darren!

Sweet bass, Darren. Congrats!

This one??

OHHH Mark Gilbert not Mapleglo.

Well, it's definitley not the '72 AG I thought it was - there's no comparsion when it comes to the condition. Though I think MG was at least going to get some new hardware for her.

Ouch Dave! Just looking at that makes my teeth hurt and my fingers clutch convulsively at the empty air, longing for some sandpaper and an electrostat booth to restore her...

Or a trip to the chrome-plating shop to keep her all-original

Looks sweet. How does she sound?

Congrats on bass that sweet bass, Darren! You wouldn't happen to be picking it up at the SoCal confluence this summer, would ya?

"Looks sweet. How does she sound?"

It is the best sounding early 70's bass that I have ever played (and I played one or two in my day).

Hey Dave, rub it in why dontcha?

We never even had a chance, Shaun! (sniff)
