Nice! Ricks are such a unique animal, nothing else like them. I wanted one so badly back then that I sold my Pre-CBS P Bass to get one. Regrets? I’ve had a few…

Anything specific you didn’t like about your Rick, Jim @jim.mcelligott ? :thinking:

Just curious!

Thanks, Joe

Oh no, the only regret was selling a 59 P Bass - could only afford one bass at a time back then! Love my Rick!

Here is the latest addition to the “family.” A few weeks ago I had never heard of a ukulele bass, now I own a Hadean UKB-31.

Even though I knew it was built on the same frame as a baritone uke and measured 30" overall I still was unprepared for how little it was when I first unboxed it.

Here is a picture with my Sterling to give some perspective.

It sounds fairly wimpy unplugged, but connect an amp and the result is mind blowing. The ultra-short scale (20") and fat rubbery strings take some getting used to.

Yep, seen that color myself. Amazing. Haven’t asked to play one because I didn’t want to want it when I can’t budget it :slight_smile:
