I think Nacho is going to sing Cher songs. I may be wrong.

Tired of sorting out and having cables underfoot at my music workstation-

Max beautiful Hardy!! Congratulations!! So are you going to try for the Chris Squire sound. Also if you go for the stereo Rick O Sound- be sure and get some 1/4 inch extension cables with the female ends for biamping- found out the hard way that most stereo cables going from stereo jack into two single cables have short ends (1.5-2 feet) after the y out section.

So I had bought a 20 foot long stereo cable but the two single out cables coming out of the Y were only around two foot long-

A Hipshot Xtender for the Spector LX-

The second item is the double stop upgrade which allows you to drop to two lower notes instead of one. So you could drop to D then to C or low B- I got this for my Fender Jazz bass-

Xtender and double stop lever deployed on the Jazz-

Standard E at rest-

Drop D at first position-

And to low B at second position-

So this is what you need to do- btw I bought these in the past year but don’t remember posting to this thread-

Note how short the mono ends are-

And here are the 1/4 inch extensions- you may want to go longer than ten feet for bi-amping if you don’t go into a board-

Don't know if it's your first Rickenbacker but I decided to share this YouTube vid which covers how to emulate the sounds of famous Rick users like Geddy Lee, Chris Squire, Lemmy, etc...

By the looks Hardy's doesn't have the treble pickup cover so he can palm or finger mute while playing which is helpful.
Me I have no trouble with that pickup cover and kinda miss one on my five string Ric. I might grab the one from my Fender Marcus Miller 5 and screw it onto the then Rickenstein.

Nice! Is it short scale?

 

[DiMarco]

Seeing Rics made me realize...

This rectangular void needed fixing. So my 4003/S5 is now Frankenbass and has a Fender cover over its treble pickup.

What do you think?
