Oh sweet, a Viking in a 4-string variant! Cool. Hooky’s 6 never interested me.

Is that a pair of humbuckers being used in ‘split-p’ format ?
What does that sound like ?
And I like the grooves in the knobs.

Here is the Duesenberg Bass I have. A Starplayer TV Mike Campbell version. It was originally going to be called the Cobra model after the AC Shelby Cobra car of the 60’s.

I love Rickenbacker basses. Wouldn’t dare try and play one, but they’re drop-dead gorgeous.

A colleague of mine just bought one. He brought it into the office a couple of weeks ago. If I’m honest, it was a bit of a case of don’t meet your heros… ok, it may be the way it had been set up, but I really didn’t like it :frowning:

I gotta agree with you. I used to own a Rick 4001. It was…alright, but it didn’t make me tingly inside, which is a requirement if I’m going to keep a bass.

Those tuners look well neat! And I love that they specifically addressed neck dive.
