I have just found this and it is so good,, do you possibly email a tab for it. It's amazing, it just sounds so right, and sounds possible to play - with lots and lots of work and some help. Brilliant,

[Dengia64]

gibeb3, thanks friend! But i haven't learned to play with tabs... i'm too old!

But the line is so simply.... easy line boy!

Thanks, Ric-

I bet I'm a lot older than you, lol, I shall give it a go, I just think it the best thing I have heard in a long time. Ha ha what is simple to you, can be really really hard for old timer like me, but I feel inspired and shall persivere. I think it's because it's (in your words) simple that it rocks so much. "If it don't swing it don't mean a thing". Thanks again for the video. By the way, it's a fantastic bass and a really good sound as well. Keep it going youngster.

OMG - Please reply! I've been scouring Youtube, and websites for a couple of hours now, and finally came across you video. I just bought a Rick that looks just like yours from a friend. It looks the same, white (turning yellow) the the black pick guard, but the serial number came back to April of 1980. Either way, what strings are you playing? Thanks in advance for your response!

[Dengia64]

SomeGuyInSandy, thank you so much. And compliments for your Great Rick.

In this video i use Elixir 105/45. There are the same strings on my fireglo '76.

See you soon!

@Dengia64 I will look forward to that, great friend!!! It would be an honor to play by your side!

Hey man your sound is fantastic. What is the difference between his and his 4001 76 4001 84? The neck is wider? The 84 weighs a lot? I know because I have a 1973 that is very light and comfortable and I'm willing to take a 4001 1982. I found that only weighs 1982 more

What can be better than Rick? Only a Rick which you haven't played on yet.

@Dengia64 I picked up a set of La Bella 760FL 43/104 before I saw your reply (I couln't wait). The La Bellas are pretty close to the guages you suggested. The Ric sound is amazing, nothing like my JBass, or BTB.

PennybagDarrell , really thank you friend!!!
