Registered the new baby

Post by Fretjob »

Finally managed to put it down long enough to take a picture of it. Nothing flash, stock 2010 Midnight Blue 4003 fitted with the cove pickup space filler. Took me as long to find a matching strap as the guitar.

I was surprised to find it it was actually a June 2010, considering i purchased it (new) in April 2011. Where the heck has it been? Only thing that took the shine of it a little is the E and G strings are noticeably underpowered compared to the A and D strings. I'm living with it until i change the stock strings out for D'Addario's, see if the problems remains, then i'll give it a proper set up and hope i can sort it out.

Thanks Bill. Your participation is much appreciated. Every instrument makes a difference to our database and we continue to learn about Rickenbackers each day.

Ah, but the current MID is something flashy and cool, imo!

Congrats, Bill!

+1! That's a cool bass with matching strap! :D
