Those look great. Especially like that 4003s... (...and the amps )
Thanks, Chromium! As for the amps, well I have to admit that my HIWATT stuff are my faves among all my gear.
The ACC stuff is awesome too but there's nothing quite like a 70's DR103;)
BADASS!!!!!!!
Thanks, Baz......you recognize that TRC?
Nice duo. I love the unbound dot neck Ricks.
Dave, I'm the same way, love 'em! The S models are the most comfortable and they just look better to me because of the simplicity.
Awesome collection! I didn't play my 4001 for a long time - over a year I think, it just didn't fit my music - but have something coming up that needs the Ric so I pulled it out - it felt really nice to play it again.
Do you play yours with pick or fingers? That's one thing I really like about Rics, they respond well to both.
I don't use mine for everything either, most of my projects see use of my T-birds or Jazz basses, but when you need to use a Rick, nothing else will do.
I feel equally at home on these pick or finger style, certainly as much as any of my other basses, and you are right, they sound just as good either way.
