Ye of little faith.... BELIEVE!!!

Post by jdogric12 »

To all the whiners who complain there are no good deals left...

I just picked up a '73 4001 JG (serial MK #### - no I won't feed your addiction by providing it for the register or any other purpose) for $1150. It has the straightest neck and lowest action of any Rick bass I've played. The electronics are all there and sound great. Someone added a large copper shield on the back, and covered it with a black plastic plate. Pretty good work actually. Nice ambering. Lots of ambering. Tuners changed to W. German Schallers... ok! :) Handrest cover missing... ok! :)

So to ye of little faith who pine for days gone by many moons ago when Ricks sold reeeel cheeeep...

Keep... looking... up! :D

J Dog vs. Biscuti:

We have entered into the following agreement:

"During 2012, neither party may buy or sell any guitar or bass. Up to 2 pedals may be bought, but no more.

Loser has to come to one of the winner's gigs within 6 months of losing the bet, and act as "butler." This includes lugging gear, holding doors, fetching drinks, designated driver, etc etc.

May the best man win!!! :)"

So, if a November '73 for $1150 is reeeel cheeeep, would my December '73 (currently listed for sale in the Marketplace subforum) still be considered even 'kinda' cheeeep at $1250?
