Early Ripper that someone pulled the frets from and added abalone strips where the frets were....I found a harness and am going to order a pickguard....Seymour Duncan makes new pickups (they made the ones for Gibby on the reissue) so I am going to put it back together shortly and have a nice Ripper fretless...no point in trying to put the frets back in....the slots were widened to accommodate the abalone...

« on: June 08, 2012, 02:26:33 PM »I love the guy's playing, very musical, but what's so unusual about using a Ripper like that? It is very much a well-behaved, musicianly instrument and not so much an all-out rock axe (that is more the Grabber). Peter Cetera and Greg Lake were certainly Ripper players where you could hear every note and were meant to hear it too.
just threw me off I guess. Was not expecting a Mark King style on a Ripper....even has the gaf tape!!!

« on: June 03, 2012, 05:14:37 AM »maybe a mudbucker and a grabber pup could be good.seeing as you have the rout already.
it is going back to regular grabber set up. I have plans for the mudbucker on another bass that is being built.

like a well rounded fart... 
seriously, it was not what you would think it to be with the pickups set up like that. It was actually very mundane and had no personality..
