Members Mr.Mow Posted February 18, 2009 Members Posted February 18, 2009 Its a late 70's Ric copy (freakin customs held it up.. probably cos it smelt like weed... ). Its got a good 30years of dints, scratches and wear to it, the neck is like a bloody baseball bat but it sounds just sooooo sweet, the neck pup is just heavenly open and smooth, the bridge barks.. probably a little too much.. wrapped though, its really really nice.. and the neck pickup.. it looks like someone went to a lot of trouble to copy the real thing for these!

Nice bass and congrats on it finally arriving. http://www.ishibashi.co.jp/u_box/ There you go, if you see something you like contact them immediately, normally they put a hold on anything you enquire about.. Gets updated every few hours. I dragged my feet on a Johnny Ramone sig Mosrite for $500.. it was gone..
Members lonerstoenr Posted February 18, 2009 Members Posted February 18, 2009 Its a late 70's Ric copy (freakin customs held it up.. probably cos it smelt like weed... ). That smell is the gas they use in our customs to stop any bugs or harmful stuffs getting in through packages, I HATE the smell, whenever I get stuff from Japan or the US my room reeks for a few days!
