What? You don't think that's cool? You should see my 4002.

The guy I bought my V63 from is a punker. He said he had to sell it because it didn't deserve to be trashed like his other basses!
I, for one, am glad he sold it!

No Jeff.
Your basses ARE cool...
But this BG... sigh... Why a punk would even think about using a rick? To do power chords on it??? But still.... it might be easier to pan'handle on a street with a Rick... well... I mean... I would give spare change to anybody with a Rick

Altough it doesn't justify to treat a ric like that, it's a fact that punk(rock)ers use ric's a lot. And yes it's fun to play powerchords on a ric LOL.
But he, I'm a big Mötorhead fan anyway - so plays don't flame me.......

Jeff, those are cool looking and took some creativity.

Pretty big difference between putting gaudy stickers on your guitar and putting on a gaudy finish! (JK)
Jeff, your basses took talent and skill to make that way. That 4001 took the dexterity of a chimp to put those stickers on.

I was in a punk band from '78-'82, after the first year I graduated from a P bass to a 4001. They were popular with punk bassists. I never put stickers on mine tho', I was way too proud of it. I was very careful with it, the Fender came into a bit of abuse tho'. OK, a LOT of abuse. Hey, I was 20.
And I'm afraid Jeff's stripey bass reminds me of Van Halen who I have always hated.

Van Halen were plagued by the two most awful lead singers/frontmen in all of rock music. Eddie is a brilliant guitarist and it's sad that their music was marred by such terrible vocals and lyrics.

You can say a lot of things about DLR, but he WAS a showman...

The ultimate "frontman", in my book. Sure he left a lot to be desired in "notes", "melody", and such, but man, did everyone have a good time at a VH show!

Yeah, just can't get into Sammy. At least Dave had more personality, IMHO.

There is no one, no one, to compare to the late, great, Mr Mercury...
