Rickenbacker Basses / Re: Two Ricky 4005s in Germany.
« on: May 10, 2008, 08:05:33 AM »Still a great looking bass. You would have thought they would have stuck with the design and made it work better?At RIC they used to call them "tuna boats". I don't think current management likes the design. Apparently when they were still made, not many people liked them, and years after production stopped, some NOS 4005's were gathering dust in music stores.
I wonder if the problem could be pickup placement. The treble pickup is very close to the bridge.
